Duty to the Crown by Rebecca Cohen

5.0

I am in love with Anthony and Sebastian. I adore their story and how they work together in their marriage, life and yes, deception of being a married man and woman. They are so much fun and though there are times when things aren't in the forefront of discussion, it's the discussion that I love with the men. They talk. They work out whatever obstacle comes their way and they are so very much in love. Goodness. The love is what I fell in love with as well as the wit and challenge both men presents to the other.
He always had the option to take the easy way out, to stop playing Bronwyn and return to life as Sebastian. But... he had no wish to give up the public interaction with Anthony, to stop being his dance partner or to walk arm in arm with him in the gardens. And even the most spiteful remarks at court wouldn’t persuade him otherwise.

It would seem odd to still have Sebastian, a year later, playing the roll of Lady Crofton and his twin sister Bronwyn but it's not when you feel the love he has for Anthony. And Anthony... goodness. Seeing him besotted with his wife/husband is one thing but jealous Anthony is another and yeah, it's all alpha male and hot.

Anthony dragged Sebastian to his feet and they shared a deep kiss. “One day you will be the death of me.” Anthony grinned, “But it will be a wonderful way to go.”

This was simply a joy to read. It was pleasant, intriguing, sexy and exactly what I needed. There is a twist on the brother/sister connection with a new pair making there presence at Crofton Hall but the Lord and Lady of the manner handle it their way and it was a delight to watch.

I loved this, a well done historical story about two men deeply in love with one another. I can't wait to read more of these two in [b:Forever Hold His Peace|22362367|Forever Hold His Peace (The Crofton Chronicles #3)|Rebecca Cohen|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1401247779s/22362367.jpg|41770739] (sigh... the last in the series) and get to the modern tale with [b:Saving Crofton Hall|23286754|Saving Crofton Hall (Stately Passions #1)|Rebecca Cohen|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1413054946s/23286754.jpg|42827255] knowing the history of the home and learning the tale of present day Earl of Crofton.
