Review: scintillating historical romance
Rating: 5 out of 5

Ava March's three novellas which make up this collection are all set in early nineteenth England, against the backdrop of a society where sexual acts between men could constitute a criminal offence leading to the death penalty. The characters in the three stories are members of the aristocratic upper crust of English society, with its conventions of subtle flirtation and downright debauchery. Against this background, one man declaring his love for another was an act of considerable daring and courage. The stories are nicely contrasted in terms of the men's social standing, and the circumstances in which they learn to love each other. If you like historical romance, you'll definitely love these!
