Publisher's Summary
Abandoned by his father, Gareth Inglis grew up lonely, prickly, and used to disappointment. Still, he longs for a connection. When he meets a charming stranger, he falls head over heels—until everything goes wrong and he's left alone again.
Then Gareth's father dies, turning the shabby London clerk into Sir Gareth, with a grand house on the remote Romney Marsh and a family he doesn't know. The Marsh is another world, a strange, empty place notorious for its ruthless gangs of smugglers. And one of them is dangerously familiar…
Joss Doomsday has run the Doomsday smuggling clan since he was a boy. When the new baronet—his old lover—agrees to testify against Joss's sister, Joss acts fast to stop him. Their reunion is anything but happy, yet after the dust settles, neither can stay away. Soon, all Joss and Gareth want is the chance to be together. But the bleak, bare Marsh holds deadly secrets. And when Gareth finds himself threatened from every side, the gentleman and the smuggler must trust one another not just with their hearts but also with their lives.

A swashbuckling romance
Loved everything about this. The narration felt stilted at first but once I got used to the narrator’s pacing, it was quite good. The writing was as good as I’ve come to expect from Charles - unerringly excellent command of the language, tender and poignant, and really good fun.

Sub-Par Aggravating Narrator.
I've read/listened to a number of KJ Charles mm novels of late. Not all are great for me. This one was a struggle and I gave up. It could get better, and I wish I could have it narrated by Cornell Collins, who's excellent at his calling. This narrator is un bearable to listen to. Stilted, off key, jarring, just plain infuriating. Please please have this redone with the wonderful cool vocal stylings of Cornell.
