I really enjoy Elizabeth Hoyt's writing and think she does something really unique. Hoyt's stories contain a special fairy tale story at the beginning of each chapter in addition to the actual story. 
 This story centers around Lily Stump and Apollo Greaves. Lily is an actress and is introduced to Apollo as Caliban, a gardener. Greaves story is actually begun in the previous book the "Duke of Midnight", when something happens and Apollo loses his voice. 
 So people like Hoyt's earlier work but I think this one is very unique and tests her writing ability so yes, I do recommend this book. The only critic I have is that the ending was too rushed. I think she could have done more with the villain so that we feel like the hero and heroine really triumphed more.
