Thief of Shadows is out and it’s number 18 on the New York Times bestseller list! Thank you to everyone who made this possible by buying the book!

More lovely reviews have poured in for Thief of Shadows:

4 Stars
“Once you have finished reading this book, you will fully understand why Elizabeth Hoyt is considered to be one of today’s best writers of Regency Romances! BRAVA!”
— Detra Fitch, Huntress Reviews

and:

“Ms. Hoyt makes me laugh, makes me cry, and makes me fall in love with each couple. There is pure delight on each and every page! What more can you ask from an author? Thief of Shadows is another 5 star read from the stellar Elizabeth Hoyt!”

My lovely website designer, Vibeke Courtney from Dreamforge Media has put together an absolutely fabulous addition to my website: all new Maiden Lane pages. At the top of the navigation bar on my website, you can find the Maiden Lane tab. Click it and it opens a whole bunch of stuff, including:

  • and an Interactive Map of Georgian London

I hope that you’ll enjoy exploring the new Maiden Lane pages!

Cover Shoot!

Tuesday, January 18th, 2011

I’ve just returned from a trip to New York City where I got to see the cover shoot for my November book, Scandalous Desires. While there I got to interview the models, the photographer, the stylist, and others. Hopefully we’ll have that video soon, but in the meantime, you can see some of the still photos and a short video of the shoot on my Facebook page.

Notorious Pleasures will be out in a week (!) and to celebrate I’ve posted both the Batten and Reading family trees on the Extras page.

Eloisa James’ A Kiss at Midnight is my Book of the Month for January. And A Kiss at Midnight is the website contest prize for January along with the Princes Trilogy: The Raven Prince, The Leopard Prince, and The Serpent Prince.

A Holiday Gift

Thursday, December 16th, 2010

Brrrr! It’s cold here in central Illinois–and snowy, too! I was in Minnesota for Thanksgiving and got to stay for the snowstorm a week later. So far I’ve bought a new pair of boots and a new winter coat this season.

As a special holiday treat I’ve posted Melisande and Jasper’s (from To Seduce a Sinner) epilogue in the Extras section.

Also in the Extras section this month is the Book of the Month–Jennifer Ashley’s Lady Isabella’s Scandalous Marriage.

December’s website contest prize is all four of the Legend of the Four Soldiers books.

If you haven’t been to my Facebook Fan page, now is the time to visit! I’m giving away a $100 gift certificate to fans of the page–just click on the “like” button to enter!

Finally, I’m very pleased to announce that Wicked Intentions is up for a RT Reviewer’s Choice Award in the Most Innovative Historical category!

Enjoy!



Website Updates!

Monday, September 6th, 2010

I made a batch of applesauce yesterday from some lovely Ozark Gold apples. This is a autumn tradition in the Hoyt Household–picking apples at the local orchard, and making applesauce and apple pie. Mr. Hoyt does love the autumn! ;-)

I have some updates to the website!

First up, my novella, The Ice Princess has been released in ebook form! The heroine of The Ice Princess is Coral Smythe, who you may remember from The Raven Prince where she played a small part as the madam of Aphrodite’s Grotto. You can find an excerpt from The Raven Prince that features Coral as well as the first chapter excerpt of The Ice Princess and links to buy the ebook on The Ice Princess page.

While The Ice Princess is available only in ebook form at the moment, we do hope to publish it in a paper anthology soon!

I’ve posted the first scene excerpt of Notorious Pleasures, my February 2011 book featuring Lady Hero.

I have a new Book of the Month–Lila DiPasqua’s Awakened by a Kiss.

And finally, reader Rane Aria sent me some lovely original fan art for Wicked Intentions.

Enjoy!
