Anyone got any Historical Romance (Georgian Era/Regency/Victorian) book recs where the hero ends up getting physically Hurt™️ at some point?

Apparently I’m like in Nightingale mode rn or something and I need dudes with broken bones or are bruised and bloody and stuck being physically vulnerable for a bit ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Only other reqs are: it can’t be anything by Juli@ Quinn (I simply cannot get into her books though I’ve tried) and I prefer a bit of angst but don’t mind if it’s more of a RomCom type of HR

THANKS!

“I can’t help but say… he has wrought the most terrible things. He was a man who has, here and there, drawn in the edges of the world. Now and then, darkened the skies a little, closed men’s hearts. Fed that dark flame in men, the hard, mean, hard, relenting flame that keeps their hearths warm while another grows cold, their grain stashed while another goes hungry. And even has the temerity to tell that hard… funny, yes, funny, but hard joke about the man in the cold. You can get a little high, a little mighty, when you’re warm. Oh, yes, he— he gave away a few million of his billions, but he was not a generous man. He was mean, and he made but a mean estimation of the world. And he fed a certain kind of meagerness in men.”             SUCCESSION 4.09 “Church and State”

Hi guys, this has gone the rounds, but this is an update as of June 28, 2023.

Allanah has been fighting Leukemia for a year now, and we've stopped campaigning for a bit as we've found stability with 40% of gofundme funded, but now we have run out of funds again. Allanah takes midostaurin as her main chemo, which is not available in the philippines and has to be shipped all the way from India. These meds are lifesaving as her cancer has a rare mutation and needs careful observation. Please please *please* if you only reblog one of my posts, let it be this one. She runs out of her chemo next month, which is only a couple of days away. We also live in the global south, and can only receive so much government aid.. Thank you so much, any help at all is a godsend.
