the relationship between characters in Nothwell’s novels always avoid reliance on toxic tropes, and it’s been a huge comfort to read his gay pairings for me. i started with fiorenzo and will now read anything attached to his name!

Fiorenzo is yet another Nothwell masterpiece. These characters are beautifully rendered as usual, with salient emotions that will have you feeling every feel right along with them. The tropes are gold: hurt/ comfort sweet enough to hurt your teeth, dueling, sword play (both kinds), cinnamon roll who would kill/ die for him, secret identity, class difference, height difference, a masquerade ball, mannerpunk, it’s all there!

I loved this. Fiore and Enzo are so sweet, I adore them. Also it's a dual POV, so you know that both of them are a mess and constantly pining for the other. And you get some important moments told from both POV's, which YES! I need that in more books.
