The Veil of Night (Signet Eclipse)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Lydia Joyce weaves a tale of passion and darkness, of old wounds and new love in this sensual reinvention of the Gothic tradition.
From the Author
I truly enjoyed taking my love for the old Gothic tradition and using it to create something fresh and new that still had that dangerous, brooding atmosphere that made me adore the genre in the first place.
The sweet ingénue alone with the rich, older, experienced man with secret to hide has been done before--and brilliantly. So rather than try to repeat that, I took the conventions of the genre and stood them on their heads without disrespecting them in any way.
The childlike naivety of the old Gothic heroine has been replaced by the complexities of an older woman whose past has left her believing that she is hard and bitter and too afraid to live. The dark, dangerous hero is still dark and dangerous, but his own unhealed wounds and rooted fears brought about by an affliction not of his making become the 'monster in the attic' that they must face. And through their relationship runs a deep, intense sensuality that neither can even attempt to ignore.
I had a blast writing this book, and I hope you take as much enjoyment in reading it!
