A Gentleman's Gentleman: A Novel
by TJ AlexanderFrom the acclaimed author of Chef's Kiss, a groundbreaking trans Regency romance that's both delightfully witty and refreshingly iconoclastic.&“A Gentleman&’s Gentleman is a thoroughly charming confection of a romance. If you&’re looking for a tender, gentle slow burn, this is the book for you.&” —Cat Sebastian, author of We Could Be So GoodThe notoriously eccentric Lord Christopher Eden is a &“man of unusual make&” and even more unusual habits: he prefers to live far from the prying eyes and ears of the ton, and would rather have the comfortable company of his childhood cook and his aged butler than the swarm of servants and hangers-on befitting a man of his station. But Christopher&’s pleasant, if occasionally lonely life is upended when he receives word from his lawyers that, according to his late father&’s will, he must find a wife by the end of the Season if he intends to keep his family&’s fortune and the Eden estate. Christopher cannot imagine a worse fate: as he isn&’t attracted to women, his chances of making a wife happy are slim. Furthermore, if his quest to marry has any hope of succeeding, he must move to London posthaste and acquire some more suitable staff.Enter James Harding, Christopher&’s new, distractingly handsome—if rigidly traditional—valet. After a rocky start, the two strike up a fragile friendship amid the throes of the London Season . . . a friendship that threatens to shatter under the looming shadow of Christopher&’s impending nuptials—and the secrets both men are keeping. With its heady combination of dry wit, slow-burn romance, and a nuanced portrait of trans identity, A Gentleman&’s Gentleman stands to transform the historical romance genre as we know it.

Yet when Richard has a problem, he turns to his valet, a fixer of unparalleled genius--and the object of Richard's deepest desires. If there is one rule a gentleman must follow, it is never to dally with servants. But when David is close enough to touch, the rules of class collide with the basest sort of animal instinct: overpowering lust. For David Cyprian, burglary and blackmail are as much in a day's work as bootblacking--anything for the man he's devoted to. But the one thing he wants for himself is the one thing Richard refuses to give: his heart. With the tension between them growing to be unbearable, David's seemingly incorruptible master has left him no choice.
