Another unique couple from Elizabeth Hoyt. Harry and Georgina were easy to like and the story took root very quickly. An interesting pairing - she is the daughter of an earl with her own inheritance and financial freedom, he is a commoner with no money or property. Perhaps not much different than the Raven Prince except male and female roles are reversed.

Their romance was well paced and sexy. I enjoyed the way Hoyt integrated the fairy tale into this book. It seems to be her trademark and this one had a better way of tying into the story.

Hoyt writes love scenes that are steamy but not over the top. People seem passionate and real to me. Sometimes her dialogue comes off as too contemporary, but it is a minor crime in an otherwise well written book.

My biggest complaint about this book is the hero's moniker: Harry Pye. Really? It is so bad and such a terrible reference to dirty talk from junior high (hair pie) that I would almost think she'd done this on a dare or because she lost a bet. I tried hard not to think about it as I read.
