Gwen's review of The Serpent Prince by Elizabeth Hoyt
Historical romance released by Forever on 1 Sep 07
This book surprised me. I read the excerpt and thought, "Oh look. Nice, predictable historical. Simple lass nurses wounded aristocrat, they fall in love and live HEA." So, I wasn't in a big tearing hurry to read it. Figured I'd get around to it eventually. Well, I finally picked it up. Holy crap. Was I ever WRONG.
This book was surprisingly unpredictable for me. I read it in a day (thank goodness for Spring Break or I'd be looking for a job now).

The Serpent Prince by Elizabeth Hoyt
WHEN THE DEVIL MEETS AN ANGEL
Country bred Lucy Craddock-Hayes is content with her quiet life. Until the day she trips over an unconscious man - a naked unconscious man - and loses her innocence forever.
HE CAN TAKE HER TO HEAVEN
Viscount Simon Iddesleigh was nearly beaten to death by his enemies. Now he's hell-bent on vengeance. But as Lucy nurses him back to health, her honesty startles his jaded sensibilities - even as it ignites a desire that threatens to consume them both.
OR TO HELL
Charmed by Simon's sly wit, urbane manners, and even his red-heeled shoes, Lucy falls hard and fast for him. Yet as his honor keeps him from ravishing her, his revenge sends his attackers to her door. As Simon wages war on his foes, Lucy wages her own war for his soul using the only weapon she has - her love...
I am sure it is very wrong of me, in oh so many ways to say this, but...
If you haven't already, put this down on your TO BE BOUGHT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE list.
This is a flat out amazing read. The Serpent Prince is a darkly beautiful, morally questionable and erotically charged must be read novel. Simon and Lucy have a love that seems so hauntingly raw, you won't know if you are envious or if you want to kiss it and make it better.
A few people will have a very hard time reading this maybe even more than a few. It is as violent as it is passionate, with two characters I did not want to leave. I am on a complete book high right now and the only complaint I would say I had was it ended.
Well there were a few other minor things but I will tell you about that later. But trust me. You want this book.
The ever delightful Elizabeth Hoyt has given us another excerpt to share with you! This follows the first excerpt, you can find here.

ELIZABETH HOYT ATTEMPTS TO EXPLAIN THE DEAL WITH FAIRYTALES
April 17, 2007
By now you might've noticed that I have a thing for fairytales. Actually, it isn't just fairytales. It's myths, legends, fairytales, and fables - and I love them all. How much, do you ask? So much that I once spent a week when I was in high school making a genealogical chart for the Greek gods. So much that I took a course in college on the fairytale (me and almost the entire football team - they were taking it for the "easy" grade.) So much that when I went to write my very first book I had to include a fairytale. Read more
