The Secret Lives of Country Gentleman by K.J. Charles
Two very different people from very different stations of life. A truly beautiful historical fiction with heart and longing. I couldn't stop reading. Every time I put it down I would be thinking about it till I could pick it up again. A forbidden love that must be hidden, especially in the time they live, was doing its best to win. This was a fun and exhilarating read with thievery and a bit of swashbuckling thrown in for good measure. I loved every moment of it.

From the Cover...
Abandoned by his father as a small child, Sir Gareth Inglis has grown up prickly, cold, and well-used to disappointment. Even so, he longs for a connection, falling headfirst into a passionate anonymous affair that's over almost as quickly as it began. Bitter at the sudden rejection, Gareth has little time to lick his wounds: his father has died, leaving him the family title, a rambling manor on the remote Romney Marsh...and the den of cutthroats and thieves that make its intricate waterways their home.
Joss Doomsday has run the Doomsday smuggling clan since he was a boy. His family is his life...which is why when the all-too-familiar new baronet testifies against Joss's sister for a hanging offense, Joss acts fast, blackmailing Gareth with the secret of their relationship to force him to recant. Their reunion is anything but happy and the path forward everything but smooth, yet after the dust settles, neither can stay away. It's a long road from there—full of danger and mysteries to be solved—yet somehow, along the way, this well-mannered gentleman may at last find true love with the least likely of scoundrels.
