    About this series

    This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

    Silas Warner is a flighty sort of fellow, a butterfly in his attire and his jumps from one man to the next. But there's something about Ezra Curiel—first his incredible body, and then his emotional depth—that delivers a knockout punch to Silas's heart.

     

    But can love thrive between two men with such different backgrounds—a poor clerk from the English countryside and a French-born pugilist who has achieved fame and fortune as the Hammering Hebrew?

     

    Their romance is tested when Ezra is arrested for murder. But Silas and his friends know Ezra must be innocent, because he was in their presence at a soirée at Ormond Yard as the murder was committed.

     

    Can Silas gather the talents of the men of Ormond Yard to prove Ezra's innocence? Or in the process will they ruin his reputation, and subject him and Silas to prison for sodomy?

     

    Saving the Boxer is a tale of two wounded men finding each other and fighting for their true love match in a restrictive society. It is a 65,000 word story of found family, the warmth of accepting strays, and triumph over adversaries. Though it's third in the Ormond Yard series of historical romances, it can easily be read as a standalone.

      The Gentleman and the Spy is an 83,000 word Victorian-era lord and valet romance with a country house party and a touch of espionage and international intrigue.   After his father's death Lord Magnus Dawson has more important things to think about than falling in love—like how to earn a living when all he knows is the idleness he was raised with, and the military training he received before selling his commission.   For Toby Marsh, the impetus is as great, though he doesn't have Magnus's family connections to fall back on. A scholarship student at Cambridge, he was forced to spend his last year in college as valet and sometime tutor to a brainless fellow student after his father's sudden death. Now he scrabbles out a living as a freelance tutor.   Then a call from the Foreign Office brings them together. Toby disdains the idle lordling, and Magnus can't seem to treat Toby as more than a servant. As they delve deeper into their assignment, the attraction between them grows. But can they envision a future together when so class and culture conspire to drive them apart?
