Regency Londonโฆ Brendan Townsend is a young man who is very loyal to his friends. So when Tonyโhis best friend, occasional lover, and a complete screw-upโcomes to him in trouble, Brendan is determined to help. Tony is being blackmailed by the owner of a โmolly houseโ, the private club that Tonyโand other like-minded gentlemenโfrequent in order to indulge their entertainment needs. Brendan is disappointed in his friend, but goes to seek the help of his older brotherโs military commander. Philip Carlisle is a gentleman to Society, and also a man Brendanโs brother trusted completely and told his younger brother to seek out if he ever was in trouble. Philip is a 40-year-old widower, and finds himself charmed, for the first time, by an attractive young man. Brendan is likewise besotted with hero-worship, especially when Philip turns the tables on the blackmailer and saves the day for many of Societyโs closeted sons. What follows is a tale of desire, regrets, cross-country pursuit, hidden identities, lovers torn asunder then reunited, clever cover stories, and the requisite pistols at dawn.
