About this audiobook

Abandoned by his father, Gareth Inglis grew up lonely, prickly, and used to disappointment. Still, he longs for a connection. When he meets a charming stranger, he falls head over heels?until everything goes wrong and he's left alone again. Then Gareth's father dies, turning the shabby London clerk into Sir Gareth, with a grand house on the remote Romney Marsh and a family he doesn't know. The Marsh is another world, a strange, empty place notorious for its ruthless gangs of smugglers. And one of them is dangerously familiar... Joss Doomsday has run the Doomsday smuggling clan since he was a boy. When the new baronet?his old lover?agrees to testify against Joss's sister, Joss acts fast to stop him. Their reunion is anything but happy, yet after the dust settles, neither can stay away. Soon, all Joss and Gareth want is the chance to be together. But the bleak, bare Marsh holds deadly secrets. And when Gareth finds himself threatened from every side, the gentleman and the smuggler must trust one another not just with their hearts but also with their lives.

I always enjoy a K.J. Charles novel and The Doomsdeay Books series is very promising. The Secret Lives of Country Gentlemen is a fast moving mystery centered around a smuggling ring, and the romance is very sweet. Martyn Swain is a new narrator to me, and they do a marvelous job with The Secret Lives of Country Gentlemen! Swain totally gets Charles' clever sense of humor, and they do a great job with these characters.

Amazing story, amazing audio performance by new-to-me Martyn Swain. KJ Charles never disappoints. If you liked her Society of Gentlemen books I think you will enjoy this one, too.
