About this listen

Toby never meant to be a highway robber, but needs must. He didn’t plan to impersonate a top London valet either, but when the chance comes to present himself as the earl of Arvon’s new gentleman's gentleman, he grabs it. Unfortunately, the earl is the man he seduced and robbed on the road to get here. Oops.

Miles, Lord Arvon, is not impressed. But he’s faced with a tumbledown home and lost family fortune, and desperate times call for desperate measures. Toby—shameless, practical, and definitely desperate—may be just the man he needs.

To steal back a priceless bracelet, that is. What else were you thinking?

Enjoyed the characters and the narrators did a great job with their alternating chapters. I wanted something short and fun and sweet and got exactly that.

This was my first historical romance, let alone my first MM historical romance, and I loved it. While there wasn't a whole lot of steam, I quite enjoyed the different language.
The narrators were wonderful, they fit the story quite well.

Quite Enjoyable

Cute Novella

This was cute. For a novella there was surprisingly satisfying storytelling with great characters. The performances were great, especially the one who did Miles' perspective. KJ Charles is a talented author.

Sweet little romance

Honestly it wasn't bad but it wasn't the best either, however it was just short enough to enjoy what it was and helps pass the time fairly quick 🙃

A old style enemies to lovers mm romance

When Toby presents himself as the new valet to Miles, Lord Avron, he realises he’s made a big mistake. Miles is someone Toby recently seduced and stole from. Luckily Toby is unrepentantly silver-tongued and he’s soon calmed the outraged Lord. As the two sift through the derelict remains of the Avron estate, they form an unlikely bond. This regency romance novella was a quick and amusing bit of fun that leaves you wanting a lot more. It is charmingly good-natured and you want the two main characters to succeed. Because it’s so brief and quick-paced, the plot resolutions felt a little too easy and neatly packaged. Audio narrators Ryan Laughton and James Joseph (a favourite) were both great.

Amusing romantic historical romp!

Enemies to lovers story. Very predictable.

I didn’t really like the characters, found some of the changes in character unrealistic.

I felt compelled to finish it as I’d started And gotten through so much but I was glad when it was over.

Did have some funny moments though.

I was thankful it was short
