There comes a time in a lady's life...Widowed Anna Wren is having a wretched day. After an arrogant male on horseback nearly squashes her, she arrives home to learn that she is in dire financial straits.
When she must do the unthinkable...
The Earl of Swartingham is in a quandary. Having frightened off two secretaries, Edward de Raaf needs someone who can withstand his bad temper and boorish behavior.
And find employment.
When Anna becomes the earl's secretary, it would seem that both their problems are solved. Then she discovers he plans to visit the most notorious brothel in London for his "manly" needs. Well! Anna sees red—and decides to assuage her "womanly" desires...with the earl as her unknowing lover.

Pheewww... what a mind-blowing read. It was...If I may give an advice - based on my own experience - reading it in public place is not a wise thing to do.Relisten - May 12 2018I cant even tell you how much its pleasurable to listen and see the characters come alive for one of your favorite books. 😌 I read this book years ago when I was still reading MF romance (I still read some MF historical romance from time to time but its quite rare). I vividly remember how I was blown away by the authenticity and genuineness of the protagonists at that time. Both MCs are neither astonishingly beautiful nor impeccably perfect. But those two imperfect
UPDATE: First read in May 2011; reread in January 2017 and was just as good and endearing as I remember. What refreshing leads!! Really love both Anna and Edward.Absolutely fabulous - probably one of my all-time favorite romances (5 stars)I cannot believe that I have spent so long avoiding Elizabeth Hoyt! I tested whether I had been right in thinking she wasn't the romance author for me when I read Wicked Intentions a week and a half ago ... and discovered that I had been so, so wrong! From
The Raven Prince is the first book in the Princes Trilogy and my first read by author Elizabeth Hoyt, and I must say, I was pleasantly surprised! I enjoyed the uniqueness of this story in that neither of the characters could be considered even remotely conventional, and this in a time when being anything less was nigh unto blasphemous!

4.5 - one little plot point (and no, not the device at the end-is it wrong I was really hoping for that?) was too distracting for me. While the writing was purposeful and tight (in other words, REALLY good), as well at funny at times, I also have the beautiful/artistic factor, and here for me, I didn't notice that to be a strength (maybe on a reread!).So why a 4.5, Sam? (view spoiler)[You have a plot distracting you (Chilly) needlessly nefarious side characters (Felicity)-one and the same
I enjoyed this one. I love a strong heroine. Of course, he doesn't have fair hair in the book ... Raven ... hint there Mo? What the heck. It is Friday night. I am tired after a long week of work! "A good garden can always be restored ..." Oh, how she wanted this man! She wanted to hold him like this tomorrow and fifty years hence. She wanted to be by his side every morning when he woke, she wanted his to be the last voice she heard before she fell asleep at night.
Historical Romance - 3.5 stars! With his hands at the back of his head, squeezing water from his hair, his muscles stood out in sharp relief. The sun glinted off his flexed arms and chest, and his black underarm hair curled damply. Rivulets of grimy water, mixed with blood from ewe, ran down his chest and arms. His low-slung breeches clung to his hips and thighs, delineating the bulge of his manhood. He looked quite pagan. I so wanted to love this book. I really did. But for some unknown
