Summary
All he wants is the love he lost.
Four years ago, Louis-Charles Aumont, the Marquis de Montespan, chose duty over the man he loved. And then the man he loved chose death in service to England. Now, after finally cutting ties with his king, Aumont is living in a slum in Seven Dials–and intending to die there too. But when Bow Street Runner George Darling shows up at his door with a strange proposition, Aumont is intrigued by the prospect of something–anything–that might make him feel alive again. Or at least provide the funds he needs to drink himself to death.
All he wants is the love he couldn’t have.
George Darling joined the Bow Street officers out of a belief in order. He accepts no bribes, indulges in no vices, and tries very hard not to dream above his station. If only Lord Christmas Gale hadn’t put that last one to such a test. Now that turning his thoughts from Lord Christmas only lands them instead on the handsome Frenchman with whom he recently crossed paths, Darling is more determined than ever to keep his head down and focus on his duty–until a knock on his door sends his life into disarray. Teddy Honeyfield, a former companion of Lord Christmas’, is in need of a temporary bodyguard. Darling would never pass as the sort of gentleman Teddy requires…but he knows someone who might.
Neither wants to take a chance on a love that can never be.
When Aumont and Darling join forces to help Teddy, they’re not expecting to risk their hearts as well as their lives. Darling’s striking looks remind Aumont quite painfully of the man he’s lost, and Aumont’s title reminds Darling he has no right to desire a nobleman. But the rising threat soon drives them to flee with Teddy to the country–a journey that puts them face-to-face with their pasts while showing them a chance for happiness is within reach, if only they’re courageous enough to grab it.
An Affair for Aumont is the fifth book in The Lords of Bucknall Club series, where the Regency meets m/m romance. The Lords of Bucknall Club audiobooks can be listened to as stand-alones but are best enjoyed in order.

This is such a good series!
I mistakenly listened to this book after listening to the final one but it didn’t matter or take away from my enjoyment of it. Once again, Oscar Delaney has done a wonderful job performing this story.
Aumont has been present in other books in this series and he’s been somewhat of a tortured character; he finally gets his HEA in this story. There is a lot of humor and wit in this book that I don’t think was present so much in the others and I found it delightful.
It was wonderful to see all of the MCs from the previous books pull together to help Aumont and Darling. The blurb tells you what this book is about better than I ever could. I just want to savor my enjoyment of this audiobook and recommend the series to anyone who enjoys historical MM romance.
A complimentary copy of this audiobook was provided to me at my request; my review was voluntary and not influenced by the author and/or narrator.

Adorable
I think this one was my favourite so far (and there is only one book left to go). It's completely adorable with a subplot to get these two together that is a genuine threat to Teddy, who is a positive sweetheart and also gets a HEA of his own. When Teddy recalls who his stalker might be the rest of the Bucknell Club gang get involved and a madcap scheme to flush him out ensues.
Darling is just as his name suggests, he's sweet and caring, a man with strong moral values. Aumont is on a self destructive path and initially bucks against Darling's help and advice. Darling's values call for no sex before marriage and this results in a sweet, low heat read.
The narrator did an excellent job, especially with the group scenes where he had to juggle a gaggle of different voices.
Loved it.
