Feature and Giveaway: From Duke Till Dawn by Eva Leigh

Eva Leigh launches a seductive new series that sizzles with the dark secrets of London’s underworld...

Years ago, the Duke of Greyland gave his heart—and a princely sum of money—to a charming, destitute widow with unparalleled beauty. But after one passionate night, she slipped from his bed and vanished without a trace. And just when he’s given up hope of ever seeing her again, Greyland finds her managing a gaming hell. He’s desperate to have her… until he discovers everything about his long-lost lover was a lie.

In truth, Cassandra Blake grew up on the streets, picking pockets to survive. Greyland was a mark—to be fleeced and forgotten—but her feelings for the duke became all too real. Once he learns of her deception, however, the heat in his eyes turns to ice. When her business partner absconds with the gaming hell proceeds—leaving unsavory investors out for blood—Cassandra must beg the man she betrayed for help.

Greyland wants compensation, too, and he’ll assist her under one condition: she doesn’t leave his sight until her debts are paid. But it’s not long before the real Cassandra—the smart, streetwise criminal—is stealing his heart all over again.

ARC Review: Forever Your Earl by Eva Leigh

“Forever Your Earl”(The Wicked Quills of London) was a great read! I read a lot of historical romances so at times I feel like I’m reading the same plot over and over. Not so with this work by Eva Leigh! It was fun, original and entertaining.

Eleanor Hawke was so refreshing! Page one I enjoyed her and her mission and I really never lost interest in her as the story unfolded. Eleanor is a writer for one of the most popular gossip newspapers in London. Her main focus is Daniel Balfour Earl of Ashford. She always calls out his playboy lifestyle and basically embarrasses him for his behavior. Daniel has had it. He is tired of being the focus and taunts of “The Hawk’s Eye.” However, the stalks are higher when he does have very important secrets that can’t be revealed.

When Daniel discovers that “The Hawk” is really run by a woman-Eleanor, he is both shocked and intrigued. However, he can’t lose focus and has to make sure that he can get Eleanor on his side before his secrets are revealed and lives damaged. Daniel plays into Eleanor’s desire for gossip and they become a sort of team. He will give her access to certain aspects of society but he has his own conditions.

There were a lot of things that I loved about this story. One: the original concept of a commoner who happens to be a writer for a gossip newspaper and an Earl teaming up. Two, I really loved that both characters grew and evolved throughout the story. Eleanor has some prejudices about the Earl and society as a whole. Daniel was a great hero and he found a worthy challenger in Eleanor. Both move outside their comfort zones.

I do have to say there were some parts that felt a little sluggish but the story would quickly pick up again. I liked their chemistry also, they have some great conversations and they added to the wit of the story. I did think that their feelings for each other peeked to quickly and they were both very blatant about how they felt instantly.

Overall, this was a great introduction to Leigh. I found this to be a great and fun story and I could not wait to see how the author would bring Eleanor and Daniel together. I’m more than happy to have another of her books read to read “Scandal Takes the Stage.”
