Our July 2012 Romance of the Month is the fourth installment in Elizabeth Hoyt’s sizzling Maiden Lane series, Thief of Darkness. Writes romance columnist Christie Ridgway, “Scorching love scenes, a hero and heroine with deep wells of emotion and a delightful twist at the end make this a memorable, remarkable romance.”
Hoyt chatted with BookPage about sexy scenes and bad habits.
Describe your book in one sentence.
A man who hides his true emotions in shadows needs the love of a strong woman to bring him into the light.
Where do you write?
Everywhere. My office, coffee shops, the library, bed, planes, motel rooms . . .
If you weren’t a writer, what would you do?
Nothing. I have no other marketable skills.
What are the sexiest scenes to write?
Um . . . the sex scenes? 😉
What is your favorite character you’ve ever written?
Jasper, the hero of my fifth book, To Seduce a Sinner. He was something of a clown, which is a bit hard to pull off in a romance hero.

Coffee.
What are you working on next?
Right now I’m writing Duke of Midnight, which will be out November 2013.
