A Wounded Gentleman

De: Gabbi Grey

Narrado por: Michael Ferraiuolo

Henry

I’ve returned home from the war in France one-armed and defeated. While I was fighting at Waterloo, my father, brother, and sister-in-law all died, leaving me alone to raise my baby niece. I'm a broken man, and this new battle feels impossible to win. Only the assistance of my valet Percy, who refuses to leave my employ, offers me any hope.

Percy

My feelings for Henry are even more intense now than when we kissed all those years ago. Since those carefree days, I've put aside my feelings for him, and I’m now acting as his missing right arm. I take care of his needs, and his niece’s, while suppressing my own. As our intimacy grows, I can’t help but wonder if he might return my affections after all. But our respective ranks and the dangers for men of our kind form an impenetrable wall between us.

A Wounded Gentleman is a 17k Regency gay romance novella set in Jane Austen’s Persuasion world about a valet in love with the lord who is seeking redemption after being a rake.

A very sweet story.

This is a great story about a wounded soldier, Henry, who unexpectedly becomes a Lord when his father and brother died while he was away at war. Henry was friends with Percy when they were both children. Now Percy is his valet and their status in life is substantially more unequal than it was when they were young. Percy is determined to serve Henry and make his life as comfortable as he can. Henry has lost his dominant arm and needs help with every day things that most people take for granted. Percy does an excellent job providing help in all the ways that Henry needs. 😘😉
