Duke of Midnight

Duke of Midnight by Elizabeth Hoyt is .99 at Amazon and Google:Play. Those price matching fairies must be exhausted by now – they’re still at it. The arena must be a mess!
Anyway, this is Maiden Lane book 6, and it has a 4.2-star average. It was nominated for a RITA last year, and we had two guest reviews for this book. Aorist gave it a B, and Pam G gave it an A.
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?

RECOMMENDED: Suddenly Last Summer by Sarah Morgan is $1.99. This is book 2 in the O’Neil brothers series, and is about the brilliant and very funny French chef at the resort, Élise, and the results of her one-night stand with Sean O’Neil, a surgeon with no intentions of staying in Vermont at the family resort. It has a 3.98-star average at GoodReads, and I found the two of them, especially Élise, terrific fun to read about.
Fiery French chef Élise Philippe is having a seriously bad day. Not only have the grand opening plans for her beloved café fallen apart, but Sean O’Neil is back in town and looking more delectable than ever. Memories of the electrifying night they shared last summer leave Élise very tempted, but she knows all too well that eventually Sean will be leaving…again.
Being back in Vermont—even temporarily—is surgeon Sean O’Neil’s worst nightmare. Returning home to the Snow Crystal Resort means confronting the guilt he feels about rejecting his family’s lifestyle years ago. But discovering that Élise is still in Vermont and still sets his blood racing is a very welcome distraction! Remembering last summer and how good they were together is going to make walking away more difficult than he could imagine….

One Night Promised by Jodi Ellen Malpas is .99 at Amazon, and $2.99 elsewhere. I hope for price matching! This is the first book in the “One Night” series, which follows the same couple. It’s erotic contemporary romance, and it has a 4.3-star average. Readers who liked it loved the slow development and the intensity of the attraction between the characters.
ONE NIGHT WILL NEVER BE ENOUGH . . .
Livy notices him the moment he walks into the coffee shop. He’s heart-stoppingly stunning, with a blue-eyed gaze so piercing she’s almost too distracted to take his order. When he walks out the door, she thinks she’ll never see him again. Then she finds the note he left on his napkin . . . signed M.
All he wants is one night to worship her. No feelings, no commitment, nothing but pleasure. Every defense mechanism Livy has adopted during her solitary life is at risk of being obliterated by this confounding man. He’s obnoxious but well-mannered. He’s a gentleman but aloof. He’s passionate but emotionless. Yet the fascination is so powerful, Livy can’t deny him . . . or herself.
M awakens something in Livy, something deep and addictive that she never knew existed-and that she fears only he can satisfy. But she senses that behind the fast cars, fancy suits, and posh apartment, he’s aching inside. To have him, body and soul, she’ll have to brave his dark secrets. Delving into his world and breaking down his defenses become her obsession-an obsession that could shatter her heart beyond repair.

Enchanted by Alethea Kontiss is on sale for $1.99 at amazon right now too. It’s a redo of a fairy tale that is quite good, and the start of a series (one book per sister).
A couple of Elizabeth Hoyt’s contemporaries, written under the name Julia Harper, are on sale at Amazon at least. The names of the books are ‘For the Love of Pete’ and ‘Hot.’ I haven’t read either but I love her historicals so I can’t wait to try them.
@Nerdalisque – thanks for the heads up on the Caroline Linden – I really enjoy her writing and at 0.99 will definitely try another.
The second one in the Carolyn Linden series, It Takes a Scandal is also on sale for $1.99. The Audible version is then $2.99.
