Romance Reads - November 24, 2015

Sweetest Scoundrel by Elizabeth Hoyt
4 stars



Eve is a Duke's illegitimate sister and has been placed in charge of his investment in Hartes Folly, a theatre and pleasure garden owned by Asa Makepeace.  Eve has a horrible past and abhors men and their touch.  Asa is bold and brash and lives for the success that he plans for his theatre.  This is a really good historical romance.  I loved both the characters and I think Asa especially is very well developed.  The tension between the two characters is intense but believable and without any annoying obstacles.  Every episode between the two is completely tinged with humor and there were some incredibly good scenes.   I have read a couple of other books in this series and definitely think Elizabeth Hoyt is a dependable author in the genre.  I received this from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
