A stand-alone novella from New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth Hoyt!
Miss Mary Whitsun is far too intelligent to fall
for the rakish charms of a handsome aristocrat. But when the gentleman
in question approaches her in a bookshop, mistaking her for his fiancée,
Lady Johanna Albright, the flirtatious encounter only raises more
questions. Could Mary, a servant raised in a St Giles orphanage,
actually be Lady Joanna's long-lost twin sister? If so, Mary has been
betrothed since birth---to the rakishly handsome artistocrat himself . .
.
Henry Collins, Viscount Blackwell, is far too
intrigued by Mary to let her go so easily. He's drawn to her sharp mind,
indomitable spirit, and the fiery way in which she dismisses
him---ladies simply don't dismiss Lord Blackwell. But as Mary makes her
first hesitant steps into society, she can't help but wonder if she
truly has a place in Henry's world---or in his heart.

Once Upon a Maiden Lane was such a wonderful tie up to the end of the Maiden Lane series. Yes, I know there is a Christmas Novella. It's awaiting me on my kindle as I type. But 'Once Upon' really tied up the series so lovely. If you are familiar with the series you will know Mary from the beginning when she was introduced as an orphaned child. Now grown up and suspected to be the long lost daughter of a well-to-do family. This revelation completely changes her world as she goes from a lady's nursemaid to a lady herself. While she adjusts to this new life she must get used to the idea she has been betrothed to the dashing Henry since birth. I loved everything about Mary and Henry. They were charming and flirty, they shared a curiosity, intellect and wittiness that made it impossible not to be completely captivated with them. Throw in the mystery of Mary's background and a element of danger, along with familiar faces, Hoyt couldn't have made this girl any more happy despite the bittersweetness of saying goodbye to a beloved series. 'Once Upon' definitely gave me the itch for a re-read.
Elizabeth Hoyt is the New York Times bestselling author of over seventeen lush historical romances including the Maiden Lane series. Publishers Weekly
has called her writing "mesmerizing." She also pens deliciously fun

need of weeding, and the long-suffering Mr. Hoyt.
