About this ebook
"The Duke at Hazard is my dream historical romance: emotional and intimate, but also full of wit, humor, and a lovable cast of supporting characters. The setting feels so vivid and alive, and every single interaction between the two heroes is pitch perfect. I loved every word of this book' Martha Waters
The Duke of Severn is one of the greatest men in Britain.
He's also short, quiet, and unimpressive. And now he's been robbed, after indulging in one rash night with a strange man who stole the heirloom Severn ring from his finger. The Duke has to get it back, and he can't let anyone know how he lost it. So when his cousin bets that he couldn't survive without his privilege and title, the Duke grasps the opportunity to hunt down his ring-incognito.
Life as an ordinary person is terrifying... until the anonymous Duke meets Daizell Charnage, a disgraced gentleman, and hires him to help. Racing across the country in search of the thief, the Duke and Daizell fall into scrapes, into trouble-and in love.
Daizell has been excluded from polite society, his name tainted by his father's crimes and his own misbehaviour. Now he dares to dream of a life somewhere out of sight with the quiet gentleman who's stolen his heart. He doesn't know that his lover is a hugely rich public figure with half a dozen titles. And when he finds out, it will risk everything they have...

I can give no higher accolade than to say it reminds me strongly of Georgette Heyer's writing, if she had written open door LGBTQIA+ romances. Some elements are similar to The Foundling in which the Most Noble Adolphus Gillespie Vernon Ware, seventh Duke of Sale travels incognito under the name of Rufford to retrieve some letters for a relative. Thoroughly enjoyed this, as I have all books by KJ Charles. I received an ARC from the publisher via NetGalley.

As always- beautifully written, charming, impossible not to fall in love with the characters. What a treat!
