Publisher's summary

London, 1822

William Drake has lived among thieves, bastards and beggars all his life, doing what's necessary to survive. As a young orphan, that included looking after his best friend, Jack Morgan. But as they grew older, Jack took the honest path, leaving Will behind to fend for himself the only ways he knows how.

When an unsavory errand for his employer brings Jack back to London's underbelly, he needs Will's help. It's there, among the alleys they ran through as children, that the love he's always felt for Will returns. As their nights together grow hotter, Will discovers something new about his old friend - Jack's need to serve extends into the bedchamber. Will has never fully abandoned his dream of escaping London with Jack. But what could the Duke's driver want with a dishonest cheat like him, beyond a bit of rough sex? It takes the gamble of Will's life to find out if he can win Jack's heart...

sweet, but subdued

This novel was well written and performed. The narrator did a great job on the voices throughout, but his voice had a very soft, hushed quality that made me feel a bit lulled while I listened.

The description kind of promised a bit of "rough," of which there wasn't really any, nor was there any kind of d/s relationship, just one partner preferring a far more passive role.

The romance was sweet, but overbalanced by enough well written angst that I found myself wanting to cry for the lead characters. I probably wouldn't read it again, but I'm not mad about having read it at least once.

Too much like her other books

Sharp Love is a combination of Rogues and His Client. Time for some new ideas and to stop using passages from one book in another...
Narrator was the only reason I kept with it.

A Rich Historical Romance

Review: I haven't read an Ava March novel in ages and I forget how much I enjoy the picture they paint. The characters are gritty and real, and always seem authentic to me.

The audio version is nicely performed by Matthew Holland

extremely well written and descrptive. the reader has an amazingly seductive voice, but the accents are frequently off. the reading is still great abd full of emotion regardless.
