Don't miss the second thrilling standalone Regency romance in the Gentlemen of Uncertain Fortune series by KJ Charles... 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... Pre-order now!

I started THE DUKE AT HAZARD while I looked after Daisy, who declined to pose, and finished it while I enjoyed my new projector lamp. (The green stars are still and the blue bits swirl.) It wasn‘t one of KJ Charles‘s standouts, but it was still an enjoyable way to spend a few hours. Lots of solid character development and creative problem solving.

I found it disconcerting how much the early part of this book borrowed from Heyer, specifically The Foundling, and I've noticed that even readers who don't recognize the source are baffled by the difference in tone. Once past that though, the characterizations are excellent and the romance very passionate.
