   Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch.  A_Reader_Obsessed | Apr 21, 2024 |    ) terriaminute | Dec 4, 2022 |  ) JorgeousJotts | Dec 3, 2021 | I read book one a while ago so I didn't remember all of the details but this book picks back up with the mystery of that book. That was interesting and I liked the spiritualism elements that were included as part of Justin's character. I don't have too much to say about the mystery plot but I did enjoy it for the most part. The relationship dynamic was really good. There's some great conflict and communication between Justin and Nathaniel. Charles does a great job of writing conflict without falling into the trap of miscommunication and non-communication. There's some great back and forth between them and negotiation of what the relationship is going to look like. There are some great lines that really demonstrate the feelings they have for each other and really made me believe in their relationship. I think I did like this relationship a bit more than the one in book one. I really like this follow up in this series and I'm interested in book three given how this book ended. Hopefully that book will be a good wrap up to the series. ( ) AKBouterse | Oct 14, 2021 | I adore flawed MCs and enemies to lovers. And this is a perfect example of unexpected and unwanted attraction. And excellent hate sex. And the thing about hate sex so early in the book is you can see the progression of their relationship through their physical interactions. I'm very excited for Mark's story.

HTML:In the sordid streets of Victorian London, unwanted desire flares between two bitter enemies brought together by a deadly secret. Crusading journalist Nathaniel Roy is determined to expose spiritualists who exploit the grief of bereaved and vulnerable people. First on his list is the so-called Seer of London, Justin Lazarus. Nathaniel expects him to be a cheap, heartless fraud. He doesn??t expect to meet a man with a sinful smile and the eyes of a fallen angel??or that a shameless swindler will spark his desires for the first time in years. Justin feels no remorse for the lies he spins during his séances. His gullible clients simply bore him. Hostile, disbelieving, utterly irresistible Nathaniel is a fascinating challenge. And as their battle of wills and wits heats up, Justin finds he can??t stop thinking about the man who??s determined to ruin him. But Justin and Nathaniel are linked by more than their fast-growing obsession with one another. They are both caught up in an aristocratic family??s secrets, and Justin holds information that could be lethal. As killers, fanatics, and fog close in, Nathaniel is the only man Justin can trust??and, perhaps, the only man he could love.

Charles consistently delivers on this connected trilogy as the search for a missing heir continues.
Here, the story is passed onto Clem’s friend Nathaniel, who is trying to find a lost earl in order to financially help Clem maintain his livelihood. Nathaniel’s search brings him to a charlatan’s door, and though Nathaniel knows he’s a fraud, he can’t help but be repulsed and intrigued at the same time by the enigmatic Justin.
When men of ill repute come looking to get what they perceive as their just reward for finding the missing earl, it puts everyone in danger and reveals an even greater conspiracy behind all the secrets.
This had a nice mix of enemies to lovers, touching on the social divide and its barriers, along with some very explicit covert smexy. I’m still not a huge fan of historicals but as always, Charles makes a strong case for them, and I will concede that she does quite the excellent job - so much so, I’ll forge on ahead and finish this trilogy off!
