Product Description:
Talk about a compromising situation! A storm of political intrigue, murderous mayhem and sexual hungers is brewing on planet Regelence. Swarthy Intergalactic Navy Captain Nathaniel Hawkins ran from a past he had no intention of ever reliving. But when his Admiral asks him to use his peerage, as an earl and the heir to a dukedom, to investigate a missing weapons stash, hes forced to do just that. As if being undercover on a Regency planet where the young men are supposed to remain pure until marriage isnt bad enough, Nate finds himself attracted to the kings unmarried son. All Prince Aiden Townsend has ever wanted was to be an artist. He has no interest in a marriage of political fortune or becoming a societal paragon. Until he lands in the arms of the mysterious Earl of Deverell. One look at Nates handsome face has Aiden reconsidering his future. Not only does Nate make a virile subject for Aidens art, but the great war hero awakens feelings in Aiden he has never felt, feelings he cant ignore. After a momentous dance at a season ball, Aiden and Nate find themselves exchanging important information and working closely together. They have to fight their growing attraction long enough to find out who stole the weapons and keep themselves from a compromising situation and certain scandal. Warning, this title contains the following: explicit sex, graphic language, violence, hot nekkid man-love.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Romance and Intrigue at it's best!
I'll give you a brief synopsis - 'My Fair Captain' takes place in the future, on a planet called Regelence, where male children are genetically bred to have a preference for the same sex. Now that's a fresh take on this whole M/M romance thing. Without the gay persecution/hatred plot that usually centers around these M/M romance novels, Langley is able to devote more of the story line to the romance and subplot. I read this book over the course of several days, and was so taken by the characters ... Read More
Rating:  - Great cover art but...
It had great cover art but the writing itself was sometimes painful to read. The plot itself wasn't bad but the author could have used the services of a strong editor. The cheesy words the author chose for profanity, the loose plot ends, and the somewhat deus ex machina solutions when she wrote herself into a corner. But still, it's fantastically better than gay sci fi/fantasy we had ten years ago... which was next to nothing. Keep on truckin' Ms. Langley. I'll try a book of yours again.
Rating: - Oustanding, Langley's Best Work
I have eagerly purchased all of Langley's published work, and enjoyed every one. Her M/M romance leans heavily toward erotica, but she always creates well-drawn, likeable characters that make the stories special beyond the hot sex. However, in "My Fair Captain" she has created a rich science fiction novel full of mystery and adventure with a beautiful romance at the heart of it. I was astounded at how good a writer Langley is beyond the romance. Her world-building is intricate and detailed, and ... Read More
Rating:  - Different but I loved it.
I bought this book because I have loved some of the other books from this author. It was set in the future and I had a hard time with that at first, since I'm not really a sci-fi guy. However it really turned out to be a good book and it made me want to keep reading it.
Rating: - Old world romance at its best
Wow! What a romantic tale. I've never read a sci-fi romance novel and was a bit sceptical to start off with. But I thought lets give it a go and it surely did satisfy. My fair captain is written by a very talented author whom I have enjoyed reading previously. This story draws you into the lives of the characters and it's not long before you are addicted. I think the idea of young men being available to be courted in a truely romantic manner sets you craving for more. This book is filled with mystery, ... Read More
