About this listen
Lord Alexander Pyne-ffoulkes, the younger son of the Duke of Ilvar, holds a bitter grudge against his wealthy father. The Duke intends to give his Duchess a priceless diamond parure on their wedding anniversary - so Alec hires a pair of jewel thieves to steal it.
The Duke's remote castle is a difficult target, and Alec needs a way to get the thieves in. Soldier-turned-criminal Jerry Crozier has the answer: He'll pose as a Society gentleman and become Alec's new best friend.
But Jerry is a dangerous man: controlling, remote, and devastating. He effortlessly teases out the lonely young nobleman's most secret desires, and soon he's got Alec in his bed - and the palm of his hand.
Or maybe not. Because as the plot thickens, betrayals, secrets, new loves, and old evils come to light. Now the jewel thief and the aristocrat must keep up the pretence, find their way through a maze of privilege and deceit, and confront the truth of what's between them...all without getting caught.

Story
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.

Complexity done right
As is the case for all of KJ’s books, the characters are given a warmth and depth that make you genuinely care about them. They are fallible and whole in a deeply compelling way.
In particular, this book handles sex and sexuality with such care and attention that even if the characters tastes are not your own you will still enjoy their pleasure.
KJ is also one of very few authors who can be trusted to handle dom/sub relationships with the necessary care and attention to be risky and fun without having to worry about anything being unsafe.

Love, Love, Love It!
I absolutely loved this book. In fact, I'm struggling to leave the book world behind and start reading another book. I'll definitely read this one again.
The characters were well-rounded, and the plot was gripping and flowed nicely. I love that the heroes didn't feel the need to change each other or improve themselves just for the other person. They accept and love each other for who they are, and I found that very refreshing.
Love, love, loved it!

It takes a thief to catch a murder
This is great stuff. it has literally EVERYTHING you want in a drama! Forbidden love with a not at all noble sexy sophisticated thief that steals from the rich to give to themselves. A rejected noble artist who falls for said rogue. A Ducal family ripped apart by literal murder and unrequited need for revenge. An malicious duchess willing to go to any lengths to maintain her ill gotten gains. A duke so deep in that he goes along with it whatever the end. And the incredible plot with twists and turns a plenty mixing it all together.
