Summary
Lad from the streets meets lord of the manor. Both men's lives will be changed forever.
When Sir Alan Watleigh goes searching for sex, he never imagines the street rat he brings home for one last bit of pleasure in his darkest hour will be the man who hauls him back from the edge of the grave. Despite his harsh life in the slums of London, Jem is a bright, cheerful young man. He's also witty, irreverent, glib, and makes Alan laugh - a rare occasion since wartime trauma and the death of his family have made the man a ghost of his former self.
A single night of meaningless sex turns into an offer of permanent employment. Jem acts as Alan's valet, but offers him so much more than polished boots and starched cravats. Just as the men are adjusting to their new living arrangement, news about a former soldier under his command sends Sir Watleigh and Jem on the road to save a child in danger.
The journey brings them closer together as they travel from lust toward love. They rescue the girl from the clutches of an insane surgeon, who is as interested in experimenting on the vulnerable human spirit as he is on physical bodies. Alan realizes his love for Jem when he nearly loses him, but is Alan's love strong enough to risk society discovering the truth about him? And is he strong enough to finally accept his sexual nature?
A reissue of the title first published by Loose Id.

Hot and sweet Regency MM Romance
This book it both a traditional Regency Romance, with an MM twist, and new and fresh all at once. While it takes place in a ”real” Regency world where homosexuality is a crime, it doesn’t dwell on this too much, the MCs don’t seem to live in constant fear of discovery, while they are cautious. The romance is the main thing, and I really liked that.
Depressed war hero Sir Alan meets destitute but cheerful rentboy Jem and is surprised by the love and even joy Jem brings to his life. He hires Jem as his valet so they can be together and the feelings start to devellop.
I liked that both the two MCs and the secondary characters were all strong in their own way, and I liked the chemistry between Sir Alan and Jem, it was totally believable when they fell in love.
Jasper de Montfort is a new-to-me narrator and I liked his narration. However, I did sometimes have difficulty understanding what Jem said, due to his 19th century lower class accent, but that might be because I’m not a native English speaker.
