When a blackmailer threatens to expose their illicit relationship, there’s only one thing stopping Crane from leaving the country he loathes: Stephen. He knows Stephen’s job as justiciar requires secrecy, but the magician is doing his disappearing act more than seems reasonable-especially since Crane will soon return to his home in China. Lord Crane has never had a lover quite as elusive as Stephen Day. It has a historical Victorian setting, it involves magic, one of the two heroes is short, skinny, and booksmart, and above all the main characters are presented as real, multi-layered people in a real relationship. “The Magpie Lord has everything I could possibly want from a m/m romance. – Romantic Times (Top Pick for September 2014) “The dialogue between the heroes is fun and intense… The building steam combusts into heat that sizzles right off the pages.”
“This combination of magic, mystery, and mayhem will have crossover appeal for fans of several genres an exciting new voice in the paranormal world.” “Charles begins a new gay Victoria fantasy series with this short but colorful novel Sexual tension between the men is sizzling…” The text has been lightly edited but there are no significant changes. This is a new edition of the book previously published by Samhain. Evil pervades the house, a web of plots is closing round Crane, and if Stephen can’t find a way through it-they’re both going to die. But Crane’s dangerous appeal isn’t the only thing rendering Stephen powerless.
Soon Stephen is falling hard for the worst possible man, at the worst possible time. Besides, the earl is unlike any aristocrat he’s ever met, with the tattoos, the attitude…and the way Crane seems determined to get him into bed. Unfortunately, it’s his job to deal with supernatural threats. Magician Stephen Day has good reason to hate Crane’s family. He’s also inherited his family’s enemies. But with the mysterious deaths of his father and brother, it seems the new Lord Crane has inherited an earldom. A snowball in hell.Įxiled to China for twenty years, Lucien Vaudrey never planned to return to England.
