A Georgian set (wigs, powder, beauty marks, etc) romance between Kit, a highwayman/coffee shop proprietor who takes care of everyone and Percy, the determined son of a Very Bad Dad™️ (also a very powerful/wealthy Duke) with a big secret. 

Kit and Percy meet when Percy comes looking for help dealing with said big secret. 

As they plot, they talk family, politics, friends, secrets, discover their shared trauma, have gorgeously romantic firsts together, grow fond, get cross, admit power imbalances, and fall in love. 

Plus you get a few choice eat the rich, i.e. “no such thing as a good landlord… surely you know the cost of all this” moments.
