I enjoyed reading the historical M/M Regency romance
The Duke at Hazard by KJ Charles.
"The Duke of Severn is one of the greatest men in Britain. He's also short, quiet, and unimpressive. And now he's been robbed, after indulging in one rash night with a strange man who stole the heirloom Severn ring from his finger. The Duke has to get it back, and he can't let anyone know how he lost it. So when his cousin bets that he couldn't survive without his privilege and title, the Duke grasps the opportunity to hunt down his ring-incognito.
Life as an ordinary person is terrifying... until the anonymous Duke meets Daizell Charnage, a disgraced gentleman, and hires him to help. Racing across the country in search of the thief, the Duke and Daizell fall into scrapes, into trouble-and in love.
Daizell has been excluded from polite society, his name tainted by his father's crimes and his own misbehaviour. Now he dares to dream of a life somewhere out of sight with the quiet gentleman who's stolen his heart. He doesn't know that his lover is a hugely rich public figure with half a dozen titles. And when he finds out, it will risk everything they have..."
Gods, I love this genre. 🤣🤣🤣
I just posted a review for "The Secret Lives of Country Gentlemen" by K J Charles! Overall, a compelling romance with characters who felt very real. My favorite part was Joss Doomsday’s arc about control. 3.5/5 stars. https://wordpress.com/post/meadowphillips.wordpress.com/38

Do you like characters who hide their heart behind snarky comments? Do you like stories about men who love men? Do you like murder mysteries? Do you like stories set in Oxford between 1892 and 1905?
Then I recommend
Death in the Spires
by KJ Charles.
I really loved it! ^_^
I'm loving "The Secret Lives of Country Gentlemen" so far! I was pleasantly surprised by the sex scene in the first chapter (it was GOOD!), as well as the book mentioning trans people in a way that I feel was very respectful, especially for the era where it's set. I was also pleasantly surprised by how much the plot has grabbed me. I'm six chapters in and excited to keep reading!

I finished the new #KJCharles this week, in under 24 hours. It's super devour-able and enjoyable, I loved it. Not one of her best, but like usual her B+ is someone else's A. I thought Rufus was a little thin as a character. KJ does a good job balancing show and tell with characters, and he felt mostly tell, but both MCs are still fun and I was definitely rooting for them. #romance
I just finished reading "A Nobleman's Guide to Seducing a Scoundrel (The Doomsday Books Bk 2) by KJ Charles.
It was great to get back to the world of the marsh and the story is a real page-turner. Highly recommended!

Looks like I'll be buying a few #mmromance books today.
I recently bought the first book in the Sins of the Cities series by #KJCharles so I may go ahead and get the Bk 2 & 3 although I haven't read it yet. I've heard good things from other readers. Cha-ching! A big $3 reward is in my future. 💲💵 🤷♀️
Thanks for this recommendation! I'm currently reading through her The Turners series in between reading other books. I'll have to check out this series - Seducing the Sedgwicks - next. It sounds really good.
I just finished the Society of Gentlemen series by #KJCharles, which is also really good.
My current read is A Seditious Affair: A Society of Gentlemen (Bk2) by #KJCharles
#mmromance @mmromance #gayromance
Slippery Creatures is the first of three novels by K. J. Charles about ex-soldier-turned-bookseller Will Darling and disgraced aristocrat Kim Secretan as they tangle with spies, hoodlums, Bolsheviks, and club secretaries in 1920s London.
