WHEN A MASKED MAN…

Twenty years ago Maximus Batten witnessed the brutal murders of his parents. Now the autocratic Duke of Wakefield, he spends his days ruling Parliament. But by night, disguised as the Ghost of St. Giles, he prowls the grim alleys of St. Giles, ever on the hunt for the murderer. One night he finds a fiery woman who meets him toe-to-toe-and won't back down . . .

MEETS HIS MATCH…

Artemis Greaves toils as a lady's companion, but hiding beneath the plain brown serge of her dress is the heart of a huntress. When the Ghost of St. Giles rescues her from footpads, she recognizes a kindred spirit-and is intrigued. She's even more intrigued when she realizes who exactly the notorious Ghost is by day . . .

DESIRE IGNITES A DANGEROUS PASSION

Artemis makes a bold move: she demands that Maximus use his influence to free her imprisoned brother-or she will expose him as the Ghost. But blackmailing a powerful duke isn't without risks. Now that she has the tiger by the tail, can she withstand his ire-or the temptation of his embrace?
 

 

Many of you know that I am a huge fan of Elizabeth Hoyt’s books as evidenced from my reviews of several of her previous books: Wicked Intentions, Scandalous Desires, Thief of Shadows, and Lord of Darkness. Duke of Midnight is another gem in Hoyt’s crown. Maximus and Artemis are dynamic characters who grabbed me right from the start and held my attention and affection until the very end. Add that to the rich setting, intricate plot, and paired with essential secondary characters, and you’ve got another keeper from Hoyt. I highly recommend Duke of Midnight
