Fiction. Romance. Historical Fiction. LGBTQIA+ (Fiction.) HTML:K. J. Charles turns up the heat in her new Society of Gentlemen novel, as two lovers face off in a sensual duel that challenges their deepest beliefs.
Silas Mason has no illusions about himself. Hes not lovable, or even likable. Hes an overbearing idealist, a Radical bookseller and pamphleteer who lives for revolution . . . and for Wednesday nights. Every week he meets anonymously with the same man, in whom Silas has discovered the ideal meld of intellectual companionship and absolute obedience to his sexual commands. But unbeknownst to Silas, his closest friend is also his greatest enemy, with the power to see him hangedor spare his life.
A loyal, well-born gentleman official, Dominic Frey is torn apart by his affair with Silas. By the light of day, he cannot fathom the intoxicating lust that drives him to meet with the Radical week after week. In the bedroom, everything else falls away. Their needs match, and they are united by sympathy for each others deepest vulnerabilities. But when Silass politics earn him a death sentence, desire clashes with duty, and Dominic finds himself doing everything he can to save the man who stole his heart.

Things are difficult and set against these two to such a degree that at several points I thought 'well this is rather stressful/unpleasant/discouraging/etc.'. lol. But I was *interested* in how things would play out, and cared about the characters, so overall it was well worth those times. I would take this sort over a 'continually cheering but ultimately kind of pointless' tale anyday. A wide vocabulary used, many literary references, and good historical detail, which were all nice bonuses for me. Overall it was quite well done. ( )

It's been a year since Silas and Dominic first began hooking up, though neither knows the other's name or circumstances. Their affair is purely transactional, and it began when Dominic sought an anonymous partner to realize a kink that definitely posed challenges in 1819 London. Regrettably, as their private lives suddenly collide in political opposition, the honeymoon might well be over.

This book landed in my TBR pile at the beginning of 2018, and now I really wish I could remember how (thought it was BookPage, but couldn't find a reference to it in that publication). The story was a bit different from what I was expecting initially, but I was super interested in learning how the author would handle both the nature of their relationship and the resolution of the conflict given the era. It was great — delicious writing AND educational to boot! It seems this is the second in a series, so maybe I'll check out the first installment as well. ( )

Loved it, specially Silas, a realistic character, so human and with a speech more than once universal and atemporal that oneself cannot help but to empathize. ( )

This book slayed me. It was so much better that I could’ve expected, even after the awesomeness that was its prequel. So intense and tightly-plotted that it barely let me breathe, damnit. I complained about too much politics in the first book — guess what, this one positively dripped with it, and I freaking LOVED it. Yep, you read that correctly, KJ Charles made me care about 19th-century politics. That’s some magical shit right there.

As to Dominic and Silas’s relationship… It was PER-FECT. So much conflict and tension between these two, but all it did was make their story even better. Aaahhh!!! The character development here was so good I can’t even. Both of them were completely different men at the end of the book. And the sex, oh my god. Historical amateur D/s smut at its best!!!



I’ve died and gone to pervy heaven.

Highly recommend this series to all historical romance fans. It doesn’t get much better. ( )

This was an amazing yet difficult read. I actually wanted to skip it and head straight to the next one; but one page in to that, and I knew I had to come back here and find out what happened. I loved Silas and his story and have lots of feels for everything he had to go through; I don’t really understand Dom as much, but I’m so glad that he and Silas have each other. ( )
