Darling Beast by Elizabeth Hoyt
Falsely accused of murder and mute from a near-fatal beating, Apollo Greaves, Viscount Kilbourne has escaped from Bedlam. With the Crown's soldiers at his heels, he finds refuge in the ruins of a pleasure garden, toiling as a simple gardener. But when a vivacious young woman moves in, he's quickly driven to distraction . . .
A DESPERATE WOMAN . . .
London's premier actress, Lily Stump, is down on her luck when she's forced to move into a scorched theatre with her maid and small son. But she and her tiny family aren't the only inhabitants-a silent, hulking beast of a man also calls the charred ruins home. Yet when she catches him reading her plays, Lily realizes there's more to this man than meets the eye.
OUT OF ASH, DESIRE FLARES
Though scorching passion draws them together, Apollo knows that Lily is keeping secrets. When his past catches up with him, he's forced to make a choice: his love for Lily . . . or the explosive truth that will set him free.
Elizabeth Hoyt is the author of more than twenty-three sumptuous historical romances, including the Maiden Lane trilogy, which has been a New York Times bestseller. Her work has been described as fascinating by Publishers Weekly, and she was awarded the RT Book Reviews Career Achievement Award for Historical Romance in 2018. Julia Harper is the pen name she uses for her fabulously amusing contemporary romances. Elizabeth shares her home in Minneapolis, Minnesota, with three untrained dogs, a weed-infested garden, and the patient Hoyt. The Minnesota winters are notoriously long and cold, so Elizabeth is always delighted to receive reader mail.
