Literary Nymphs Reviewer: Scandalous Minx
Frederick Thorne, Duke of Ashland, is a man who gives with no ulterior motives. His aura is a beacon to others and has a healing power that lights the way to happiness and acceptance. This beacon of devotion drew Brett Haversham to Freddy five years ago. Freddy’s only wish is to gain Brett’s love -- the one thing Brett is reluctant to give. If there is one person capable of getting the two men together, it’s Anne Goode. Anne has a connection to both men through her deceased fiancé Bertie. After weeks of passion and revealed secrets, these three people learn a valuable lesson. There will be no retreat from love.
Retreat From Love is book five in the Brothers In Arms series. Ms. Kane was the first author of gay Regency-era erotica that I had the privilege to read. This series takes us to a time where participating in a gay relationship was a hanging offense, and the reputation of a woman was all that she truly owned. I love the fact that no matter how strong her characters are, they have true human weaknesses that they will have to acknowledge and then overcome. Anne is sweet with a warm personality and a quick wit. Freddy doesn’t allow his wealth to dictate how he treats others. He’s handsome but doesn’t seem to know just how alluring he actually is. Brett’s need of love and acceptance tugs at your heart and makes you want to wrap him in a healing embrace. When you put them together, there isn’t enough fire repellant paper to not feel the heat and flames from their love. I can only guess there are at the least two more stories for this series. Moreover, I plan to be one of the first to read the next story when it’s finally published. This is a fantastic read, which should not be missed.
