About this listen

Every new romance has its ups and downs . . . Its bumps in the road . . . Its blackmail notes . . .

England 1795: London gentleman Daniel Thornton has just dumped his philandering lover Clarence. He moves to Grantham to care for his ailing uncle and nurse a broken heart. The move he hopes will be a fresh start—a place to discover himself and perhaps a new way of seeing the world.

Luke Morley is a draper's son struggling to accept his sexuality. He has withdrawn into a world of fantasy, but with the arrival of Mr. Thronton this private world is shattered. Grantham's most eligible bachelor is everything Luke has ever dreamed of. After months of silent admiration, he determines to introduce himself.

Reenter Clarence, who arrives to win back his old lover. When Daniel rejects him again, he is not about to take it lying down . . .

A blackmail note appears—a demand that Daniel marry one of Luke's sisters. A demand that he fulfill Luke's sexual desires. Daniel saw young Mr. Morley leave the note on his mantle.

The note is from Luke. Isn't it?

Contains mature themes.

I thought I would love every book read by Cornell Collins and this one started very promising but I wish there would have been an abuse warning. The first encounter between the main characters was too close to assault for my liking and I had to stop for a while before daring to pick it up again, only listening with half an ear for the rest of the book.

Non the less, the language and pacing are good, though I found the involvement of the parents a bit unrealistic. Cornell Collins is a pleasure to listen to, as always.

Good start, but...
