I read Kit Webb and this one back to back as to best understand the story and while I quite enjoyed them both, this was was definitely the better of the two. I definitely recommend reading Kit Webb first and reading them together since the plots are so intertwined and I imagine this would not be easy to understand without Kit Webb.
Rob was perhaps one of my favorite MMCs in a while, his characterization was written in a way that was so enjoyable and made it impossible not to root for him at every turn. His relationships with the people he loved and the animals he loved, as well as with the people around him, made him practically perfect with a morally grey Robin-Hood-style code of ethics. Marian was, of course, an absolute icon once again and I enjoyed getting to understand her, her past, and her relationships to the ones she cared about more as well! I also enjoyed that the book did not shy away from discussions of her period and the dangers of pregnancy as I feel that even in contemporary books this is often ignored. The relationship between the two and their dynamic in and outside of the bedroom were enjoyable to read and the author balanced well telling us the story of the relationship while telling us the tale of their adventure.
I recommend this to anyone who enjoys a historical romance that has a greater plot and even a greater purpose outside of the romance!
