When a Rogue Meets His Match

Greycourt Series, Book 2

by Elizabeth Hoyt

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5


There is no other author that totally envelops me in their world as fast as Elizabeth Hoyt. She makes Georgian London come to life from the dregs of society to the highest peer!


Raised in the gutters of St. Giles, Gidieon Hawthorne is just as ambitious as he is ruthless! He has elevated himself up from the streets to now holding a position for a Duke and owning his own respectable manse. Now all he needs to do is find a way to get an in to society and it appears the the lovely Messalina Greycourt, nice to his employer is his ticket.


After finding out that her uncle has promised her to his henchman, Mr. Hawthorne, Messalina takes her future Ito her own hands by crafting her own deal with the devil, her soon to be husband, that will see to her receiving half her dowery after a month of marriage and thus a way to escape!


Soon after their marriage these two nemesis find that they work better as a team than as advisories… but Messy still plans to leave at the end of the month and Gideon’s lies and inability to love may be the thing that finally pushes her out the door!


Oh my! This marriage of convenience/ enemies to lovers/ class difference romance was perfect! I loved every minute of reading this book and my emotions were definitely put through the wringer!



Elizabeth Hoyt is one of my all time favourite historical romance authors and this books has not let me down! I am already eagerly awaiting the next instalment in the Greycourt series!!!




When a Rogue Meets His Match by Elizabeth Hoyt is scheduled to release December 1st, 2020.


I received a complimentary copy of this book from Forever Grand Central Publishing) through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

My Contrary Mary

My Contrary Mary Voice Galley by Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, & Jodi Meadows ⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5 What a fun treat to be back in the world of Verities and Eðians (shapeshifters)that readers were introduced to in My Lady Jane!
