Lord Crane has never had a lover quite as elusive as Stephen Day. He knows Stephen's job as justiciar requires secrecy, but the magician is doing his disappearing act more than seems reasonable - especially since Crane will soon return to his home in China. Then a blackmailer threatens to expose their illicit relationship. And as Stephen investigates a plague of giant rats sweeping London, his sudden increase in power, boosted by his blood-and-sex bond with Crane, is rousing suspicion that he's turned warlock.

I hate Valentine Tye. I’ve hated him since we were ten years old. I hate everything he is, everything he stands for. Even the mention of his name gets my back up. And when I see him? My blood boils. My jaw clenches and my hands curl into fists. That’s how much I hate him. I want to cause him pain. I want to hold him down and actually hurt him. And if that’s not bad enough, that’s exactly what he wants me to do to him.

The greatest achievement in life is finding someone to love
- By Carola on 03-04-2024
Publisher's Summary
Power, privilege, and the rigid rules of class leave two hearts yearning for connection in the sizzling new Society of Gentlemen novel from K. J. Charles.
Among his eccentric though strictly principled group of friends, Lord Richard Vane is the confidant on whom everyone depends for advice, moral rectitude, and discreet assistance. Yet when Richard has a problem, he turns to his valet, a fixer of unparalleled genius - and the object of Richard's deepest desires. If there is one rule a gentleman must follow, it is never to dally with servants. But when David is close enough to touch, the rules of class collide with the basest sort of animal instinct: overpowering lust.
For David Cyprian, burglary and blackmail are as much in a day's work as bootblacking - anything for the man he's devoted to. But the one thing he wants for himself is the one thing Richard refuses to give: his heart. With the tension between them growing to be unbearable, David's seemingly incorruptible master has left him no choice. Putting his finely honed skills of seduction and manipulation to good use, he will convince Richard to forget all about his well-meaning objections and give in to sweet, sinful temptation.

Lovely story with familiar themes but refreshing differences from the usual
This is the third in a series and I do recommend reading in order - the whole series is a delight and the plots overlap most satisfactorily.
All the series deals with love across social and class divides and the themes from the previous books coalesce here with the challenge of how a great lord can honourably love his valet.
This doesn’t feel an anachronistic telling of this story but it is sensitive to a modern view of power and privilege and how easily abuse can arise when the imbalance is great.
But mostly thus is a sweet romance where the heroes communicate and grow and find their HEA while thwarting villains and making the work a better place.
Love it. Read / listen to them all.

This series gets better and better with each book!
Ostensibly a gentleman’s valet, David Cyprian has been the invaluable flashman and fixer for Lord Richard Vane over the last four years, the keeper of his many secrets and the ruthless arm twister of those who pose a threat to his Lordship. The only problem Cyprian can’t solve is his secret love for Vane. I’d have been satisfied if this was a classic bodice ripper, but the intrigue, plots, and scandal made it so much more! I loved the spice of danger, the clumsy overtures by Vane, and ingenious solutions enacted by Cyprian. Cyprian and Vane were like a more serious gay Jeeves solving Bertie Wooster’s muddles. This whole series has been excellent, but this is my pick of the bunch. Audio narrator Matthew Lloyd Davies affected such perfectly posh and lower class voices, he was an absolute delight!

Great series of Regency London
All three books featured two major protagonist but all were related in some way with each other. Extremely clever was author kept all the characters coming and going through the three linked stories with a great conclusion and the tiring up of all loose ends.
