Fiction. Romance. Historical Fiction. LGBTQIA+ (Fiction.) HTML:A private detective finds passion, danger, and the love of a lifetime when he hunts down a lost earl in Victorian London.
On the trail of an aristocrat??s secret son, enquiry agent Mark Braglewicz finds his quarry in a music hall, performing as a trapeze artist with his twin sister. Graceful, beautiful, elusive, and strong, Pen Starling is like nobody Mark??s ever met??and everything he??s ever wanted. But the long-haired acrobat has an earldom and a fortune to claim.
Pen doesn??t want to live as any sort of man, least of all a nobleman. The thought of being wealthy, titled, and always in the public eye is horrifying. He likes his life now??his days on the trapeze, his nights with Mark. And he won??t be pushed into taking a title that would destroy his soul.
But there??s a killer stalking London??s foggy streets, and more lives than just Pen??s are at risk. Mark decides he must force the reluctant heir from music hall to manor house, to save Pen??s neck. Betrayed by the one man he thought he could trust, Pen never wants to see his lover again. But when the killer comes after him, Pen must find a way to forgive??or he might not live long enough for Mark to make amends.

I have enjoyed every level of this story through all three books to date. #3 finally solves the mystery started in #1, and very satisfyingly. I loved Mark as I had not before, and appreciated the incidental presentation of his physical disability (and the careful editing that kind of thing requires). And Pen vs the social repercussions of displaying his genderqueerness - but I leave that for you to read. It is awesome how these two work out what they can be to and for each other. ( )

The best of an extremely good series!

(Series must be read in order since one book leads into the next.) ( )

I wasn't as caught up in the storyline with this one, but I did enjoy the non-typical characters. I didn't adore them the way I do some couples (like the first couple in this series), but they were likable, and interesting, and I felt happy for them finding each other. ( )

***after finishing***
I liked this more than I expected. I really enjoyed the way how Pen described their struggle while still being a little shit sometimes.

People today always assume that nobody before them had the same issues we have today. That transgendered people or genderfluid people are a 'new' thing. Or the way people who accept them are something new. Fact is that humans always had these kind of people. And in some way our reactions haven't changed. No matter the culture. Some people accept them, some don't and some don't care.

So while it will be weird for some people to see this kind of 'modern' acceptance, as a whole the human race isn't terrible inventive. It is probably been done before.

And for somebody who loves historical romance stories but got very frustrated with the underlying message that human history somehow only exists in chopped up parts, this was a breath of fresh air.

Also I want more of Greta!

***Before it came out***
ARGH

I bought the second book but now... I'm thinking if I shouldn't d wait until the third one is out... I waited with the first... Can I wait any longer?

DO I HAVE THE WILLPOWER? ( )

An excellent end to the series. This brought the trilogy to an exciting head. As this is written to overlap with the other two books in an entwined story covering three (four) couples, there are moments of clarity that you only get when all three books are put together. I prepared for this by listening to the previous two books.
Loved meeting up with the others again, especially Clem and Justin, and meeting Tim in more than passing.
I was worried about how KJ would bring this to a close and still get these guys a HEA, but I needn't have worried. The outcome was perfect for all concerned.
As for the romance in this, I adored the gruff pragmatic Mark, and Pen, yes Pen spoke to my soul.
I'm sad that these books have come to an end but I have all 3 audios and I'll be listening to each and every one of these time and time again. ( )
