ABOUT THE BOOK:SEVEN NIGHTS OF SINAs the madam of Aphrodite's Grotto, the most infamous brothel in London, Coral Smythe knows everything possible about men's needs and desires. Yet she's never experienced the love of a single man-not even that of Captain Isaac Wargate whose hawk-like eyes stare at her with both condemnation...and lust.SEVEN NIGHTS OF ECSTASYCaptain Wargate heartily disapproves of the sensuous madam who always wears a golden mask. She lures his officers from both his ship and their duty. But when Coral herself is offered up as the prize in a game of chance, Wargate impulsively enters...and wins.SEVEN NIGHTS OF LOVENow the puritanical navy captain has just seven nights to learn everything he can about the mysterious madam and what she knows of a man's desires. But when Coral is threatened by the new owner of Aphrodite's Grotto, will Wargate take a chance on the woman beneath the mask...and on love?REVIEW:  Ms. Hoyt has managed to create a spell bound story which shows the path of changes, love, and desires.  I enjoyed the overall story and did find that it was a quick read - mostly due to the fact that I didn't want to put it down.  While I wished it had been a bit longer, I cherished each page that passed.Aphrodite is the supreme chided woman who has wrapped herself in a ball of protection from everything outside.  She alludes to the presence of confidence when in all actuality deep down, she's got insecurities to make any one pause.Captain Isaac is the ultimate hero who attempts to fight his feelings for this very public woman, but manages to be ensnared, not only by her beauty but deeper inside to the true woman.I liked the exchanges between these two and found that Ms. Hoyt did a great job at keeping the tension rising and showing each step they took in order to overcome obstacles.  The chapters transitioned smoothly and the writing was spot on.  The only thing I didn't like was that the ending seemed a bit rushed and out of place.  Other than that, it's a historical read I'd recommend for someone looking to get through a steamy story quick.  I give this read four out of five stars.
