About this listen
A slow-burning romance and a chilling mystery bind two singular men in the suspenseful first book of a new Victorian series from K. J. Charles.
Lodging-house keeper Clem Talleyfer prefers a quiet life. He's happy with his hobbies, his work - and especially with his lodger Rowley Green, who becomes a friend over their long fireside evenings together. If only neat, precise, irresistible Mr. Green were interested in more than friendship....
Rowley just wants to be left alone - at least until he meets Clem, with his odd, charming ways and his glorious eyes. Two quiet men, lodging in the same house, coming to an understanding...it could be perfect. Then the brutally murdered corpse of another lodger is dumped on their doorstep and their peaceful life is shattered. Now Clem and Rowley find themselves caught up in a mystery, threatened on all sides by violent men, with a deadly London fog closing in on them. If they're to see their way through, the pair must learn to share their secrets - and their hearts.

Will Sedgwick can’t believe that after months of searching for his oldest friend, Martin Easterbrook is found hiding in an attic like a Gothic nightmare. Intent on nursing Martin back to health, Will kindly kidnaps him and takes him to the countryside to recover, well away from the world. Martin doesn’t much care where he is or even how he got there. He’s much more concerned that the man he’s loved his entire life is currently waiting on him hand and foot, feeding him soup and making him tea. Martin knows he’s a lost cause, one he doesn’t want Will to waste his life on.

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.

Story
Lord Courtenay has been called many things and has never much cared. But after the publication of a salacious novel supposedly based on his exploits, he finds himself shunned from society. Unable to see his nephew, he is willing to do anything to improve his reputation, even if that means spending time with the most proper man in London. Julian Medlock has spent years becoming the epitome of correct behavior. As far as he cares, if Courtenay finds himself in hot water, it's his own fault for behaving so badly - and being so blasted irresistible.

Very engaging and sexy, if who doesn't fit in
I really enjoyed this -- might even try to find the next part. The taxidermy descriptions could give some people pause...

I'll Definitely Listen To It Again
This really was a very sweet romance. There is full, actualized sex scenes, of course, but Clem and Rowley are just so loveable and mushy that the scenes lacked some of the steam that I know K. J. Charles is capable of. I think that my only criticism of their relationship would be that at times Clem was a bit too naive for a man that seemed to have more experience than his partner (Rowley), and those scenes felt a bit childish. Overall, though, their relationship was very enjoyable.
The mystery aspect of the novel was decent, though--to me--it was rather obvious who the "villain" was. There were some bits that weren't quite explained, but it came together in the end.
Overall, this was a pleasing book that I would gladly listen to again. Matthew Lloyd Davies' narration is superb. I'm looking forward to the next in the series!

Very sweet and lovely!
I like stories without a lot of heartaches and break-ups. This story just so sweet and lovely with an interesting mystery to it. Although I wish it was a bit longer. The mystery wasn't touch on as much a I expected. Not to say it's bad; but it's just that perhaps I was expecting a Iot more actions and adventures.
Although, there's still a fair amount of actions going on considering the story's pacing and the book's length.
Regardless, the performance of Matthew Llyod Davies is absolutely superb! All the characters in the book feels individualised due to his voice acting. Felt like listen to a film created inside your head. It's very easy to forget the real world around you; while immersive youself to this narrative.
