About this listen

Gothic romance with a twist.

Elements of The Sound of Music, The Enchanted Garden, Jane Eyre, and "true" ghost hunting shows make this story feel familiar. Gay love makes it unique.

Seeing an ad for a position at a Yorkshire estate, typesetter Graham Cowrie decides to make an upward career move by passing himself off as a tutor. How hard can it be to teach a few subjects to a pair of nine-year-old boys? But on his arrival at the ancient house, he finds the staff creepy, the twins odd, and the widowed master temporarily absent.

His first meeting with brooding, stern, but oh-so-attractive Sir Richard doesn't go well, but with no other prospects vying for the teaching position, Graham manages to keep it. His mission soon becomes clear: break down the walls of reserve both father and sons have erected, and attempt to bridge the gap between them.

But strange sounds, sights, and experiences keep Graham on edge until he finally admits the Hall is haunted by two entities with very different agendas. Graham works to appease one and combat the other, while protecting the broken family he's grown to care for.

Not for the faint hearted this story good as it is certainly has some dark moments and living in a castle in winter is not as great as it might seem and with spirits wondering around throwing books, fun not so much its a great listen 😀

Dark enteties and m/m sex

Good story that made me want to keep on to the conclusion. A bit too much yearning for the master / sex for my liking. A few loose ends - couldn't he have kept the staff on at the country house? There were only a few of them and he obviously kept servants on at the London house.

Ghost story

This book had every satisfying trope of the gothic genre with a M/M story to boot! Creepy mansion with weird and sullen servants, check. Broody handsome torn lord of the manor, check, creepy children , check check, optimistic male leads who is just trying to survive, check. Incorporeal evil: you bet! Graham and Richard as a couple as well are very much to my liking. I am not a fan of M/M romance that starts the day they meet and it's all encompassed in like the span of a week. Here we see the relationship develop over weeks and I live for that! The characters are relatable, the eerie atmosphere is being milked to the fullest and the romance is steamy yet heartfelt.

My one gripe is the performance again but mostly because of the weird inflection. A good flick.
