What it says on the tin. Written by a finale lover, but not out to change anyone's mind or get in any fights. These are some of my thoughts for those who are interested.

Summary
A.Z. Fell is a famous (well, in his circle) Soho bookseller whose selection of volumes is the epitome of respectable (and boring) literature. One of his favourite authors is the renowned science writer A.J. Crowley, whose books on astronomy have popularized the subject — and also sell very well.
Mr Fell is overjoyed when Dr Crowley accepts his invitation to do a signing of his new book in the bookshop, but their first conversation is a disaster: for some reason, Crowley does not share Fell’s distaste for romantic literature and acts very cold when the bookseller berates the author of one of the most popular romance series of the moment, Madame Ashtoreth.
Little does Fell know that his favourite writer and the one he hates with a passion are the same person…- Language:

“Hey, it’s blond guy!”
“Uh,” Stede looks up to see leather and purple and strikingly tumbling hair. “Hi. Stede Bonnet. Blond guy?”
“Yeah man, I’ve seen you in the shop, I call you Blond Guy in my head. Good to have a proper name for you, Stede. I’m Ed.”

Summary
The London Season of 1841 opened with a flourish of silk and the sharp scent of ambition. Having spent years honing his craft in the most elite bordello of Paris, Mr. Anthony Crowley arrived to London with a singular, razor-sharp objective: to trade his "personal services" for social currency and climb the Victorian ladder, one rung at a time.
Across the city, Aziraphale having unexpectedly inherited the title of the Earl of Eastgate, finds himself trying to navigate an aristocratic world of unwritten rules he barely understood and never wanted. When the haughty Duke Gabriel presented him with a month-long, pre-paid contract for Mr Crowley's 'exclusive services', Aziraphale was more than dismayed—he was mortified.
Unwilling to indulge in the physicalities of the contract, Aziraphale finds himself considering Crowley’s most unusual counter-proposal. The Earl needed a tutor for the Ton; Crowley needed a respectable appearance of an Earl on his arm. Crowley would teach him the etiquette of the elite, and in exchange, they would perform the role of devoted paramours for the public eye.
It was a sensible, businesslike arrangement. Certainly no feelings would be involved...
