Clem is a fantastic character-- his sensory processing difficulties, tendency to take things literally, and sweet heart all remind me of my autistic brother. I'd love to stay at his lodging house.

This probably would have been a 4 or 5 star read if I hadn't had to read it in fits and starts, but Clem and Rowley were still very sweet together.

An Unseen Attraction by KJ Charles is a historical mystery. It is an enjoyable book. Rollie and Clem, the main characters, have a relationship that develops over the course of the book. Clem had a British father and an East Indian mother who were not married. His whole life he was been an outsider and treated as "less than". Rollie's father was a violent man who was hanged when Rollie was a teen. Two men who the English society have disdain and yet were more decent than the nobility in the story. Matthew Lloyd Davies is a terrific narrator. He does a great job on the range of accents and voices. An enjoyable book.
