Publisher's summary

He thinks he's just a wallflower. Little does he know he's the guest of honor....

It's the last night of a week-long house party in remote northern England. Every sensual delight imaginable is right at Henry Shaw's fingertips. Yet all he wants is to be with his host, the deliciously handsome and enigmatic Arsen Grey. Henry's certain it's love, not mere infatuation. He's also sure it's hopeless. After all, the party's purpose is to find Arsen a new mistress.

Arsen longs to leave the glittering, jaded world of the ton behind and find someone who will value him for himself, not his wealth and his title. He suspects that someone could be the strapping country gentleman he's caught staring at him. Henry is loyal and dependable, nothing like his other acquaintances. Arsen sets a plan into motion, one designed to get Henry into his bed. One that includes a test of devotion.

Arsen never expected that in winning Henry, he risks losing his heart.

Historical MM Romance

Another good gay historical romance story. Henry was like this gentle giant that wanted nothing more than Grey's love. Grey recognizes the spark in Henry's eyes, realizes the attraction is mutual and sets a plan in motion to make the big, burly man his. There isn't a lot of story per say to this one, it's all about the two men and what happens behind closed doors, when no one is watching. I did want a little bit more content and thought this book had so much potential to be expanded on, that was disappointing, but overall I really enjoyed the story. My first time listening to this narrator, Tim Gilbert, but I enjoyed his tones and what he did with the characters.

Short Historical Story

Although this story is short it has a lot to offer. We get a small peek into the lives of two characters that are just looking to be loved for who they are not what they can offer. It felt like more of a short story addition to a larger series I would have liked to see a little more history on how the main characters where before they got together. A fun listen Time Gilbert did an excellent job on the British accents and keeping them distinct and easy to identify. Not an epic, fall in love with book; but a nice easy enjoyable listen.

Steamy Short

Although very short, you get a good sense of character depth and the journey the have gone on. Great narration, earnest characters, and steamy scenes.

Hot scenes but no real character reveals

It’s very short, which is a shame as it feels like these characters could be fleshed out more, but for what it is it’s nice. Just don’t expect anything too in-depth.
