Provoked, Beguiled, and Enlightened

3/5. Historical M/M trilogy featuring a Scottish nobleman and a rising young lawyer who have a lot of sex while failing to communicate, until eventually they do.

These are nice, and doing, you know, stuff with class and with the protagonist's different ways of being queer in a hostile historical context. I think the books are a little too interested in deciding which of them is right, when I don't really think there is a right way here. But that's beside the point. The point is, the audios of these are read by a gentleman with the spectacularly Scottish name of Hamish McKinlay, who has the voice and accent of someone named Hamish McKinlay, and who thus lends these a great deal of charm.
