A Position in Paris by Megan Reddaway
5.0

I'm a sucker for a good historical MM romance, and Megan Reddaway did not disappoint in A Position in Paris. James Clarynton has been injured in World War I and is doing his best to withdraw from the world. With the loss of an eye and a leg, he's no longer the handsome rogue he was, and he doesn't know what to do with himself.

To rouse himself from his despair, he decides to write a book about the chinoiserie he inherited from his great uncle. That means he needs a secretary, and the man he hires, who will only give his name as E. Vaughn, is not only handsome but intriguing.

This is a slow-build romance. James needs time to adjust to his new circumstances, and Vaughn can't admit his attraction to James while he's still keeping so many secrets. Reddaway draws each character very clearly, alternating diary entries between the two men, so we see not only what each of them is thinking but how they react to each other. I found this a real page-turner and enjoyed seeing both men grow to the point when they are ready to love.
