This was an enjoyable continuation of the story. I loved the glimpses I got of previous characters and relationships while keeping the focus on Warren and Matty. There was just enough danger to keep ir interesting but not so much that it took away from the blossoming romance. Overall, I throughly enjoyed this story.
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for an early copy.

Complicated
A playful, heart-twisting, and charming cap to the Lucky Lovers of London series, To Sketch a Scandal will likely be one of my top reads of the year. With one of the romantic leads being a queer cop in Victorian London and the other being a second generation British Indian man who works at a gay club, both are even more susceptible to state violence than previous leads, thus the stakes of this match are higher than ever. Although the tension was wound tight, Everlee was very gentle with the audience at the end.
The leads could not be more well-matched or charming as a duo, and their story drew me in immediately. Perhaps my favorite part of this novel (and the series as a whole) is how Everlee's work relays a spirit of queer joy and community that answers the question of how historical queer people lived despite systemic inequity: with a lot of luck, and for all the people they loved. To me, Everlee has earned a place among KJ Charles and Cat Sebastian as one of the finest queer historical romance writers of our time. I cannot wait to see what she writes next.
