Is their real-life love story doomed to be a tragedy, or can they rewrite the ending?
London, 1883
Finely dressed and finely drunk, Charlie Price is a man dedicated to his vices. Chief among them is his explicit novel collection, though his impending marriage to a woman he can’t love will force his carefully curated collection into hiding.
Before it does, Charlie is determined to have one last hurrah: meeting his favorite author in person.
Miles Montague is more gifted as a smut writer than a shopkeep and uses his royalties to keep his flagging bookstore afloat. So when a cheerful dandy appears out of the mist with Miles's highly secret pen name on his pretty lips, Miles assumes the worst. But Charlie Price is no blackmailer; he’s Miles's biggest fan.
A scribbled signature on a worn book page sets off an affair as scorching as anything Miles has ever written. But Miles is clinging to a troubled past, while Charlie’s future has spun entirely out of his control…
Carina Adores is home to romantic love stories where LGBTQ+ characters find their happily-ever-afters.

The narrator was able to do very distinctive voices, but I didn’t care for most of them. Alma sounded like a twit, Miles sounded like a street thug, and the folks at the Curious Fox also all sounded like thugs, and not the dandies that they are. Oh, and Smithy and Jo were terrible, too! Just some really odd vocal choices for these characters. I think there’s a lot of skill there, but just not a good match between characters and voices.
Not bad, but not quite as good as hoped

Great set up for a rollercoaster last quarter

This was ok, a little long-winded, and honestly, too much monolog for my taste.
You've got a group of like-minded people just trying to survive in a world that doesn't allow any form of gay or 'ruin' behavior.
One MC, Charlie has managed to get himself into some pretty major debt and has only one option. Marriage. Miles, who has managed to become a hermit writing and working in a bookstore he owns and hates.
Overall, the story has good flow, and even though we do not find out much, if anything about the family side of Miles, we do find out how he got the store. We have a little more information on Charlie. The ending is predictable but entertaining.
The narration is OK, not my favorite, but I've heard worse. Had good separation between characters, but for me, the voice for Miles and the woman were grating.
I will not be looking for additional books in the series. One was enough.
Cute

The narrator was good when voicing the MCs, but the female voices were laughable and some of the other male characters were pretty cartoonish.
Some good moments
