ONCE UPON A MOONLIT NIGHT (MAIDEN LANE) BY ELIZABETH HOYT
Release Date: July 5, 2016
SYNOPSIS
From New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Hoyt comes a delightful Maiden Lane novella that begins once upon a moonlit night—and ends wickedly, wonderfully ever after...
Hippolyta Royle is running for her life. Pursued by hounds on a cold rainy night, the heiress flags down a passing carriage and throws herself at the mercy of the coach's occupant. Whoever this handsome traveler may be, he is her only hope to escape a terrible fate. But should he agree to escort her to safety, he's in for much more than he bargained for.
At first Matthew Mortimer doesn't believe Hippolyta's story, that she's a fabulously wealthy heiress who's been kidnapped. He assumes she's a beggar, an actress, or worse. But once his new travel companion washes the mud from her surprisingly lovely face, and they share a breathtaking kiss, there is no turning back.

REVIEW: ONCE UPON A MOONLIT NIGHT (MAIDEN LANE) BY ELIZABETH HOYT
Once Upon a Moonlit Night by Elizabeth HoytMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Nothing is as it seems in this story and that leaves many unanswered questions. Once Upon a Moonlight Night is Hippolyta (what a mouthful) and Matthew's adventurous, mysterious and all out confusing romance. Ms. Hoyt does a fabulous job of drawing her readers into this chaotic union but the story move so fast I found it hard to keep up. The benefit of approaching a read like this one is that it kept me alert and I always discovered something new. I received an ARC of this story in exchange for an honest review, though not a favorite, Once Upon a Moonlight Night is as wicked as it is puzzling but is full of surprising twists.
