Book Review: Wicked Intentions by Elizabeth Hoyt

Book Review: Wicked Intentions by Elizabeth Hoyt
Publisher: Forever (Grand Central Publishing)

Temperance Dews is a widow that works in her family’s foundling home for orphans. The orphanage needs funds. Lazarus Huntington, Lord Caire, needs a guide through the slums to help find the murderer of his mistress. An unlikely pair from the start but you can pretty much tell how this one is going to end.

Caire is a tortured soul who is unable to withstand the slightest human touch. The reasoning behind this is never really explained. Temperance is a widow with a history of cheating on her husband. Of course they end up in bed together.

The sex is steamy, the murderer is revealed, and there is a set up for the author’s future books. It’s a light and fast read and if you view it as a guilty pleasure you will not be disappointed.

It wasn’t the best book I have ever read but it certainly wasn’t the worst.

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley.com in exchange for my honest review.
