A brooding earl. A secretive smuggler. A gothic manor where danger brews -- and love ignites.

In this intensely emotional MM Regency romance from KJ Charles, opposites attract under stormy skies -- and risk everything for a chance at devotion.

Major Rufus d'Aumesty never asked to be an earl. Now master of a decaying estate on the edge of Romney Marsh, he's under siege from greedy relatives, bitter inheritance battles, and the shadows of his own past. What he needs isn't a soldier. It's a strategist -- and maybe something more.

Luke Doomsday is a smuggler's son, a brilliant secretary, and a man with secrets as deep as the marshes. Sent to assist the new earl, Luke didn't expect to fall for him. But there's more at stake than desire -- and more at risk than either man can afford to lose.
