Publisher's Synopsis
He wasn't looking for love. He only wanted a job...
The sixth son of a family who'd have been better off with none, Izzy wants more than the miserable life he's been granted. Living by his wits in the slums of Whitechapel, he'll take any escape, committing to a life of sin and luxury at a notorious London pleasure house where the rich and powerful come to be humbled by the very lowest.
Yet there's one man from his grim past he can't leave behind. His oldest friend Noel is moral, modest, and law-abiding-everything that Izzy isn't-and he's made up his mind to do right. Until Izzy blows his plans sky high, awakening in Noel a craving for a grander life and a yearning to make their friendship what it was always meant to be.
But when an aristocratic client demands more than a little bought time, Izzy does what he must to protect Noel from the truth of the devious lives they lead. Even if it means breaking his heart.
