Abandoned by his father, Gareth Inglis grew up lonely, prickly, and used to disappointment. Still, he longs for a connection. When he meets a charming stranger, he falls head over heels—until everything goes wrong and he's left alone again. Then Gareth's father dies, turning the shabby London clerk into Sir Gareth, with a grand house on the remote Romney Marsh and a family he doesn't know.

Story
Will Darling came back from the Great War with a few scars, a lot of medals, and no idea what to do next. Inheriting his uncle's chaotic secondhand bookshop is a blessing...until strange visitors start making threats. First a criminal gang, then the War Office, both telling Will to give them the information they want, or else. Will has no idea what that information is, and nobody to turn to, until Kim Secretan - charming, cultured, oddly attractive - steps in to offer help. As Kim and Will try to find answers and outrun trouble, mutual desire grows along with the danger.

Story
Nick Russo has worked his way from a rough Brooklyn neighborhood to a reporting job at one of the city’s biggest newspapers. But the late 1950s are a hostile time for gay men, and Nick knows that he can’t let anyone into his life. He just never counted on meeting someone as impossible to say no to as Andy. Andy Fleming’s newspaper-tycoon father wants him to take over the family business. Andy, though, has no intention of running the paper. He’s barely able to run his life.

Story
James Sommers returned from the war with his nerves in tatters. All he wants is to retreat to the quiet village of his childhood and enjoy the boring, predictable life of a country doctor. The last thing in the world he needs is a handsome stranger who seems to be mixed up with the first violent death the village has seen in years. It certainly doesn't help that this stranger is the first person James has wanted to touch since before the war.

Publisher's Summary
In the first novel of an explosive new series from K. J. Charles, a young gentleman and his elegant mentor fight for love in a world of wealth, power, and manipulation. When he learns that he could be the heir to an unexpected fortune, Harry Vane rejects his past as a radical fighting for government reform and sets about wooing his lovely cousin. But his heart is captured instead by the most beautiful, chic man he’s ever met: the dandy tasked with instructing him in the manners and style of the ton. Harry’s new station demands conformity - yet the one thing he desires is a taste of the wrong pair of lips. After witnessing firsthand the horrors of Waterloo, Julius Norreys sought refuge behind the luxurious facade of the upper crust. Now he concerns himself exclusively with the cut of his coat and the quality of his boots. And yet his protégé is so unblemished by cynicism that he inspires the first flare of genuine desire Julius has felt in years. He cannot protect Harry from the worst excesses of society. But together they can withstand the high price of passion.

Extremely average
Enjoyable enough, though the plot made no sense and was full of deus ex machinas and childish "good guys win, bad guys lose" resolutions.

Quite Splendid!
After two attempts to read this on my kindle, I was delighted to see if offered by Audible Plus. I just had to get to chapter 3 and was thoroughly hooked!
I found the initial premise of the first two characters a simple set up, high born young man discovered working in the slums of London, who is tutored in the ways of high class regency England. But it is more than that. While it missed the humourous wit from the Magpie series, I found I thoroughly enjoyed this novel, and was fascinated by the background of the perils of the "seditious" politicial press.
And the narration was spot on!
Looking forward to the rest of the series.

A beautiful romance and a delightful narration
I was already a big fan of KJ Charles' work. She delivers once again a beautiful and suspenseful romance. Definitely worth a read!
I was hesitant to pick the audiobook instead of the written version, but, dear god, am I happy to have picked it up. The narration is amazing. Matthew Lloyd Davies does a great job of giving each character a distinct voice and of transmitting the emotion. The performance really adds intensity, so do yourself a favor and try it!

Engaging story, beautiful romance of two people
I acknowledge the narrator's dedication in keeping the characters separate through the way he speaks, it really did give the audiobook a little extra. The romance in the story was splendid, and I love how the story ties into different stories that will be upcoming and gives depth to this world that KJ Charles has created. Can't wait to listen to the next one, I'll be sure to wear more loose fitting knickers... oh heavens! lol.

K.J Charles & Mathew L Davies are a perfect match!
I have read and loved KJ Charles for years. Discovering this series (and others) in audiobook format has allowed me to enjoy these books all over again as if new. Mathew L Davies has become one of my favourite naarotors. Perfect match!
