Helen Fitzwilliam, former mistress of the Duke of Lister,
is fleeing with her children to prevent the duke from
taking them from her. Helen wishes to live a respectable
life and now faces the duke's threat if she leaves.
Arriving in Scotland incognito as Helen Halifax, she seeks
the housekeeper position at Castle Greaves, where she finds
a man with a face more beast than human. Sir Alistair
Munroe, tagged Sir Beastly, is missing an eye and has a
horribly scarred faced incurred during the massacre at
Spinners Falls while with the 28th Regiment. Helen has her
work cut out convincing the recluse to let them stay. As
she sees Alistair's kind soul, she finds herself falling in
love with him and engaging in heated sex.
Helen and Alistair are forced to travel to London after the
children are kidnapped by the duke. Public appearances are
a strain for Alistair, but his fondness for the children
overcomes his fear. Along with rescuing the children for
Helen, Alistair must finally face his demons about living
in the outside world.
I thoroughly enjoyed Elizabeth Hoyt's story of
mystery and sensual romance filled with suspense. TO
BEGUILE A BEAST is the third book in The Legend of the Four
Soldiers series. This again coincides with the story of the
Truth Teller. The love scenes are scorching hot and very
explicit. The plot kept my interest completely and I found
the characters strong and full of warmth. It was again my
pleasure to enjoy another book in this series.
Reclusive Sir
Alistair Munroe has hidden in his castle ever since
returning from the Colonies, scarred inside and out. But
when a mysterious beauty arrives at his door, the passions
he's kept suppressed for years begin to awaken.
TRUST A BEAUTY WITH A PAST . . .
Running from past mistakes has taken
legendary beauty Helen Fitzwilliam from the luxury of the
ton to a crumbling Scottish castle . . . and a job as a
housekeeper. Yet Helen is determined to start a new life and
she won't let dust-or a beast of a man-scare her away.
TO TAME HIS MOST SECRET DESIRES?
Beneath Helen's beautiful façade, Alistair
finds a courageous and sensual woman. A woman who doesn't
back away from his surliness-or his scars. But just as he
begins to believe in true love, Helen's secret past
threatens to tear them apart. Now both Beast and Beauty must
fight for the one thing neither believed they could ever
find-a happy ever after.
