About this listen

K. J. Charles turns up the heat in her new Society of Gentlemen novel as two lovers face off in a sensual duel that challenges their deepest beliefs.

Silas Mason has no illusions about himself. He's not lovable or even likable. He's an overbearing idealist, a radical bookseller and pamphleteer who lives for revolution...and for Wednesday nights. Every week he meets anonymously with the same man, in whom Silas has discovered the ideal meld of intellectual companionship and absolute obedience to his sexual commands. But, unbeknownst to Silas, his closest friend is also his greatest enemy, with the power to see him hanged - or spare his life.

A loyal, well-born gentleman official, Dominic Frey is torn apart by his affair with Silas. By the light of day, he cannot fathom the intoxicating lust that drives him to meet with the radical week after week. In the bedroom everything else falls away. Their needs match, and they are united by sympathy for each other's deepest vulnerabilities. But when Silas' politics earn him a death sentence, desire clashes with duty, and Dominic finds himself doing everything he can to save the man who stole his heart.

Critic Reviews

"This book is so good I read it in one sitting. I just couldn’t put it down. K. J. Charles has long been one of my favorite authors, and this book doesn’t disappoint. A Seditious Affair is a beautiful love story interwoven with the realism of the political unrest of the time - another winner from K. J. Charles!" ( USA Today best-selling author Carole Mortimer)

The angst is real!!! Two men who love each other but believe in different things and are effectively fighting on opposite sides of a war... They don't compromise for each other no matter the consequences, or ask each other the change. A No-Win situation if ever there was one. I LOVE it!!!

LOVE!!!

I read this book years ago and have been wanting to reread it for a while, when I came across the audiobook. Safe to say, the book still holds up years later! Matthew Lloyd Davies' narration was perfection, and now I want to reread the other books in the series!

Amazing!

In a clash of head and heart, democratic revolutionary pamphleteer Silas Mason and Home Office conservative gentleman Dominic Frey both risk danger and the betrayal of their respective political classes over their illicit affair. I was on the edge of my seat throughout this regency romance which was incendiary in action and in the bedroom. I’d found Silas oafish and Dominic mystifying in the first book, but both men were superb characters here. Their sadomasochistic relationship sizzled from the opening pages and their political debates raised questions we still have today: is it right to break the law to protest an unjust society? It all worked, including Matthew Lloyd Davies’ excellent audio narration.

A rich, satisfying regency romance!
