Always His Earl — Cheryl Dragon

Back in London, and free from the navy, Lieutenant Myles Harris is now a wealthy man of property. His late father separated Myles from his lover, the Earl of Thistledown, George Hardwick. Years apart have hurt both men, but their feelings haven't disappeared. George believes he has put the past behind him and has no interest in seeing Myles again. However, the Earl can't turn away Myles' little sister, the sweet girl he watched grow up next door, when she runs from her abusive husband. Hiding her in his London home, George must also have Myles as a guest under his roof. The duo must work together for their common good. Passion reignites and soon the men are breaking laws! The options are few, but they'd much rather defy the law than deny their hearts and abandon their honor.
