i wanted there to be a more interesting mystery with more interesting sleuthing and there just wasn't. instead it seemed more interested in making the sex scenes plot important?? and like, they were fine. but i just found myself really annoyed about halfway through the book that it didn't seem to be going anywhere.
also i switched between a paper copy and the audiobook a few times and whole the narrator is talented he has no business reading a sex scene. i am usually fine with listening to audiobook sex scenes but oh my god that was the unsexiest voice i've ever heard reading two people actively having sex. HOWEVER at one point he tries to read a noise that robin makes mid-fuck and it is THE funniest sound i have ever heard it cracks me the fuck up every time. so one of these stars is probably for that alone.
anyway maybe im a bit too harsh bc i don't really care for historical england settings let alone posh english society so i maybe didn't go in with the most open mind. also would've maybe helped if this book was abt women and included a butch/masc woman but i also feel that would improve every book i read. and in the end, i still think i would've been disappointed by the story.

Fantasy Mystery, MLM Romance, 2 1/2 🔥
“You look like a Turner painting and I want to learn your textures with my fingertips. You are the most fascinating thing in this beautiful house. I’d like to introduce my fists to whoever taught you to stop talking about the things that interest you.”
“I am nothing like you, and yet I feel more myself with you.”
“And I’m sick to death of being afraid, and I want you. Enough to risk it. More than enough. You make me feel like something—extraordinary.”
