When he inherits his uncle's book shop, Will Darling gets much more than he'd bargained for. Now shady characters are demanding he hand over "their" property - the war office is hounding him about it as well, incidentally. And who exactly is the dashing and mysterious Kim Secretan that is ever so eager to help him figure it all out? 👀
Ummm... is it hot in here or is it this book!? HOLY COW, y'all! This book is steamy. Some of the best sex I've read in awhile. I mean, HOT DAMN! Look, I'm going to be real: the mystery is only okay. The best part of this book is the characters and their relationships. Will and Kim are both infuriating little gems and if we don't get more of Phoebe and Maisie in book two I'm going to throw a tantrum. I am a sucker for a cozy mystery and they so rarely have good rep of any sort. Well done, K.J. Charles. Well done.
✨ Rep in this book: Gay protagonist, queer characters
