The Englor Affair Written By: J. L. Langley Narrated by: Joseph Morton | Cat's Audiobook Review & #giveaway @Dreamspinners @jl_langley


The Englor Affair

Anxious to escape the confines of Regelence society, if only for a little while, Prince Payton Townsend poses as an admiral’s aide to further investigate a dangerous conspiracy. Payton plans only to use his computer skills to help navigate the tangled web of mystery and deceit on planet Englor, then return home, but he finds himself drawn to the charismatic Colonel Simon Hollister.

Simon, however, is no mere soldier - he is heir to the throne of Englor, and his life is meticulously planned to include a bride and heir. Unlike Regelence, the Regency society on Englor disapproves of same-sex relationships, and Payton and Simon’s attraction plays out in a daring secret affair, one Simon never expected would grow into love.

Risking scandal and certain ruin if they are discovered, Payton and Simon uncover more about a common enemy and a deadly plot that imperils both their worlds. But in this game of interplanetary intrigue, love might be the ultimate casualty....

This is a book two in the series. I didn't read book one and followed this pretty well, however, I think I would have understood some characters and other things more if I had read My Fair Captain first. 
It is a Scifi Regency story and though Sci-Fi isn't on top of my reading loves, I really enjoyed this story. 
Payton is from Regelence and is a prince that hated his life in high society and poses as an Admiral's aid to help investigate a dangerous conspiracy. they travel to Englor and Payton meets Simon also a prince posing as a Colonel. He is immediately attracted to the hunky colonel and they begin an affair. Simon finally admits who he is but Payton keeps his secret. 
There are many twists and turns and the story is engaging and page turning. 
I listened to this and Joseph Morton did a good job narrating. he had good pacing and the story felt like you were in it not just listening to someone tell it. 
If you like Sci-fi , Scifi regency, Princes, Kings, military men, a good romance and some pretty hot man-sex this is for you. the romance between Payton and Simon really pulled this story together and is quite swoon-worthy.

J.L. Langley said her first words at six months of age. By the time she was a year old, she was talking in complete sentences and, as most of her family and friends will tell you, she hasn’t shut up since. After becoming an accomplished motormouth, J.L. set out to master other avenues of self-expression, including art, and dance.
She attended the University of Texas, where she majored in art and worked as a dance instructor on the side. Her love of artistic expression in dance landed her a career in which she taught and performed for over twenty-five years. After marriage to her junior high school sweetheart and the birth of their children, J.L. decided to try her hand at writing. To date, she has several successful novels and a handful of novellas to her credit.
She lives in Texas, where she was born and raised, with her real-life hero, their rowdy two boys, two even rowdier German Shepherds, and ten goldfish, one of which is named Jaws. When she’s not writing, she can usually be found with her nose in a book appreciating the communication skills of other writers.

  1. Thank you for the review. I read the first book a long time ago and now that it's on audio I think it's high time I pick up the series again.
