About this listen

A historical romance with a wink and a nod toward Peter Pan.

Peter Woods is content to live a gadfly life, darting from one experience to the next with no thought of responsibility, commitment, or the future. He has no desire to grow up. Stable, sober banker Wendell Rhodes has only recently discovered an underground London club where men meet and briefly mingle. At Ever Lads, Wendell encounters Peter and flint strikes tinder. The two opposites discover in the other what each lacks, but the journey from lust to love isn't easy.

Determined to make a man of his son at last, Peter's father attempts to curtail his hedonistic lifestyle. When Wendell's reputation is threatened, will Peter sacrifice his freedom to protect the man he's grown to care deeply for, or is there another way for crafty Peter to save the day?

Disappointing, with too many Americanisms

I'm a great fan of K J Charles, whose books are the gold standard for M/M period romance for me, and I hoped for similar entertainment here. However, I'm abandoning this book less than half way through, partly because such common Americanisms as 'pants', 'sidewalk' and 'real estate' are irritating (I'm sure American listeners could manage to decode 'trousers', 'pavement' and 'letting agent'). Meanwhile, I've not been drawn in by the characters, and the parallels with Peter Pan aren't nearly witty or particular enough.
One more thing - nobody went to 'a musical' in this period. A 'musical comedy' or a 'show' perhaps, but the term was still only used adjectively - the noun doesn't belong in this era.
