British journalist Marcus Albright arrives in Manhattan determined to focus on his latest assignment: uncovering the colorful nightlife of The Bowery's most infamous club, The Slippery Slope.

By night, his dazzling drag persona, Blaise Rose, captivates audiences at The Slippery Slope.

A ruthless policeman is determined to destroy The Slippery Slope and everyone connected to it. With the club under threat and old wounds refusing to heal, Marcus must decide whether protecting his heart is worth losing the man who could finally make him believe in love again. Set against the dazzling backdrop of Gilded Age New York, A Touch of Romance is a swoon-worthy M/M historical romance featuring a charming journalist, a glamorous drag performer, found family, forbidden love, high-society intrigue, Coney Island adventures, unforgettable first kisses, and a hard-won happily-ever-after. The Slippery Slope series can be enjoyed in order or as stand-alone romances.
