A Nobleman's Guide to Seducing a Scoundrel by K. J. Charles
Rufus d'Aumesty is the new Earl of Oxney, much to the consternation of his uncle Conrad who, unaware of his older brother's son, thought the earldom was his. But there is another possible claimant, Luke Doomsday, scion of the local smuggler family, whose mother may or may not have been married to Rufus' father first. Either way, Conrad won't be the next earl. The estate papers are a mess, the tenants have been neglected for years, and Rufus is trying to hide the fact that he is dyslexic. He needs help getting the estate back on track, and Luke is a professional secretary. As Rufus and Luke begin to turn the estate around, it becomes nearly impossible for them to ignore their mutual attraction.
Fun historical LGBTQ romance, set 13 years after the author's previous book about Sir Gareth Inglis and Joss Doomsday. Luke appears as a child in that book and it's nice to see him all grown up and revisit Sir Gareth and Joss. This is ideal as a vacation book or to read on a beach somewhere.
Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an eARC for review.
