Čuvar srca
Part of the Maiden Lane series, set in 18th-century London, Hoyt masterfully blends historical romance, adventure, and passion. The characters are richly developed, and the chemistry between Phoebe and James is touching and compelling.
Lady Phoebe Batten, the younger sister of the Duke of Wakefield, is blind and under close surveillance for her safety. Her bodyguard, Captain James Trevillion, a former soldier and member of the Kingsguard, is tasked with protecting her from danger, including potential kidnapping due to her position. Phoebe, lively and independent, often rebels against her restrictions, which leads to conflict with the serious but loyal James.
As they spend time together, their attraction grows. James, haunted by his own past and feelings of inadequacy due to his humble origins and a leg injury, struggles with his feelings for Phoebe. When she is the target of a real kidnapping, James risks everything to save her, uncovering a conspiracy connected to her family. The tension boils over as they face danger and their own emotions, and Phoebe proves that her strength lies in the spirit, not in her physical form.
