Covet - Miles Bridgerton's story

Geoffrey Dorset has always shared everything with his best friend, Miles Bridgerton, except for the fact that he has been hopelessly and unrequitedly in love with him from the first day they began studying together at Cambridge.

After both Geoffrey's and Miles' marriage plans fail due to Miles' older brother's affair with Geoffrey's fiancé, Miles flees to Vienna and abandons Geoffrey to deal with the aftermath alone. Sworn to forget about Miles, and perhaps even about his inclination towards other men in general, Geoffrey marries and even fathers a child. But when Miles returns to England after having spent nearly two years abroad, their rekindled relationship seems to quickly evolve beyond friendship into something much more perilous...

How can a budding romance survive in a hostile world that is set upon obliterating all men like Geoffrey? And is it really worth risking one's dearest friendship for a thin hope of a chance for something even greater?
