Lord Thornby has been trapped on his father's isolated Yorkshire estate for a year. There are no bars or chains; he simply can't leave. His sanity is starting to fray.   

When industrial magician John Blake arrives to investigate a case of witchcraft, he finds the peculiar, arrogant Thornby as alarming as he is attractive. John soon finds himself caught up in a dark fairy tale, where all the rules of magic - and love - are changed.    

To set Thornby free, both men must face life - changing truths - and John must accept that the brave, witty man who's winning his heart may also be about to break it. Can they escape a web of magic that's as perilous as love?

Well this was f*cking brilliant! Didn't have super high expectations but they were beyond blown. Intriguing mystery, tantalising romance, hot smut (I could of done with more of it, but that's a testament to the quality), character depth and realistic social dynamics. Creates a fascinating world, worth exploring, for many more hours than provided in this very satisfying tale.

Brilliant!

I really enjoyed this one! God knows I have a sweet spot for historical fantasy-and when there's gay spice, it's even better 😉 This didn't disappoint: interesting plot, mythology/folklore, enjoyable characters...
My only complain was the ending for the romance because it felt more like an HFN ending than a HEA. As a first book in a series, the ending would have been fine but since it's a standalone, it was too open and I'm personnally not a fan of it. I needed more concrete plans for their romantic future.

Great Read!

I enjoyed listening to this, and you can tell K. J. Charles was involved with editing it as it has a similar feel to their books. It didn’t hook me in emotionally quite as much as some, and the plot could have been tighter at times, hence the 4 stars, but it’s still a good book.

Good book

Superb narration and captivating story! I enjoyed the character development and their love story as much as the mystery surrounding the situation of Lord Thornby.

Loved it

So, I'll be honest, this story very much surprised me.
i went in expecting some raunchy, smut-fest, with a vague, Victorian-fantasy-esque, tint to it. But the plotline, twists, and world building genuinely reeled me in and kept me hooked!

Surprising story!
