Happy Thursday everyone, and it’s a great week for new books. I wanted to give a quick mention today to the new K J Charles The Secret Lives of Country Gentlemen which is the first in a new series which the blurb describes as “Poldark meets Bridgerton” where are heroes are Gareth, a new baronet and Joss, his childhood friend and leader of a gang of smugglers. I’ve recommended some of Charles’s novels before – Slippery Creatures (one of her inter world war-set trilogy) was a Book of the Week and I mentioned The Gentle Art of Fortune Hunting in a Recommendsday post last year. I’ve also got one of her back catalogue, Proper English, waiting on the tbr pile after my January holiday buying spree. Anyway, I did mean to have this read before it came out (thank you NetGalley) but as you have seen ample evidence of over the last few posts, I’ve been on a bit of a binge of other stuff and haven’t got to it yet. But it will happen so you may yet hear more about it! I seem to be saying that a lot at the moment though…
