Two so very damaged and flawed heroes as a couple in MM romance is not common and if it does feature such characters, the resulting story could be too miserable to enjoy. I like angst but not to the extend of total misery. Lucky for us, this historical romance is not. Characters, plot and emotions driven this one is a heartening and gripping tale. It is so easy to feel for Wes and Michael, a Lord and a common "hooker". Two damaged souls who could so easily have drowned and be lost forever. But somehow they managed to stay afloat and be the salvation for each other. Amidst the pain and healing their romance also has a wonderful Cinderella flavor, which put a smile on my face at the end. The only fault I have with this story are the two "Samaritans" who are too wonderful to be credible. But just a minor fault as this writer's absorbing words carry me from start to finish. And what I absolutely appreciate is no wasted pages on mindless sex just for the sake of sex. Maybe not this writer's best but close.
