Rats On The Loose

May 23, 2017 by Mikki Blu 1 Comment

Thankfully KJ Charles has obtained the rights to her books that had been published by Samhain, which closed down earlier this year.  After reading The Magpie Lord and loving it, I had been anxious to read the rest of the series – now she’s self publishing and I quickly purchased books two and three! After Lucien, Lord Crane, and Stephen Day, paranormal justiciar, met and fell into a passionate lusty affair in the country, they have returned to London.  If you haven’t read the first book, […]

Book Two, New POV

April 27, 2017 by Lane Leave a Comment

This is book two in the Society of Gentlemen series. The series changes POV with each book and covers basically the same events from another angle. I loved that and really was angry that I had both books on my kindle because I would have liked to have them both out in front of me so I could flip through and compare the events a little easier. This story follows another member of the super secret society of gentlemen that prefer gentlemen, this time it […]

A society of gentlemen (that like gentlemen)

April 27, 2017 by Lane 3 Comments

So I am officially at the point where I will read anything by KJ Charles. This is the first book in the Society of Gentlemen series that follows a group of gay men in Regency England. They use their power and money to protect each other and create a safe little world where they can live and love the way they want, but it makes for close quarters and limited dating options. This first book follows Harry Vane as he is admitted into the little […]

A Warlock That Needs to go Straight (but isn’t)

March 25, 2017 by Lane Leave a Comment

This book is part of the Magpie Lord universe. It is the least connected of the series and really could be read on its own.  It features two fun cameos and the justiciary including Stephen Day, but sadly no Lord Crane. Crispin is a warlock by accident, having been trained in blood magic by a man that wanted to wear his skin. He is struggling with using magic in the approved ways and feels like a failure. The only joy in his life comes from […]

“If you stop running, you fall.”

March 22, 2017 by Lane Leave a Comment

So again this is from the publisher that went under so if you want to buy this book on Amazon hurry there are only a few left (she may independent publish these once she has the rights back from the publisher). I loved this book so much. It is a Magpie Lord linked story but it is pretty standalone (you will enjoy the cameos and understand the story a bit more if you have read the Magpie trilogy ((which is excellent so you should do […]
