This was vintage Cat Sebastian. something I am declaring after reading only 6 of her many books.
Georgie is such a great character: clever, cynical, astute, caring.
Under Georgie's ministrations as his secretary, Lawrence, Earl of Radnor, gives up his alienation from himself and society and becomes the man Georgie needs.
This is the trope, if it is one, that I'm drawn to most, where the characters save each other. Of course, it is the ultimate romance when each is made whole, and they hear birds singing!
The harmony is never dull however. I can see that Georgie and Lawrence will go on to create even more fantastic inventions, beside the telephone.
This novel, the second in the series, was equal to the first - loved Jack and Oliver's story. However, I didn't recognise the Georgie in that story with the man that appears here. The other George was world weary and unappealing, except for his loyalty to Jack. This Georgie has the depth to be redeemable, by the unlikely Lawrence.… (mer)

This was a sweet, slow-burn historical romance set in the ‘50s, back when getting found out was a real danger to those in the lgbtq community. As a novel it didn’t have much of a plot but the grumpy/sunshine, friends-to-lovers romance more than made up for it. Cat Sebastian’s relaxed writing style was easy to follow and I loved the way she worked references to The Charioteer, Mary Renault’s classic gay romance novel from the ‘50s, into the storyline.
I know I borrowed this but did I read it? It sounds vaguely familiar but that's all. I must dip into it again,

I was expecting a bit more from the ending, it was a little lake luster for me, but overall it was a great read.
