Kari | 675 comments Hi Rosina! This is my 4th book by KJ Charles, they were all 4 stars so I have high hopes for this one. It's been a while since I read a historical romance though.


Rosina | 145 comments Hi Kari

Glad you found the link,
This is a new author to me. Historical romance not my typical read. I think this may be my 2 or 3 time reading from the MM genre.

I have started and am part way through Chapter 2.

We have till Sunday nite to finish. Do you want to follow the same schedule as the other BR or just comment as we go?

Kari | 675 comments I'm ok commenting as we go, but if it's easier for you to follow the other schedule that's fine by me too.
