I found the first half very confusing, and I checked to see if I had jumped in on a middle book instead of the first. No, just confusing. I love the new world she set up in the 20s. By the end, I was fully involved in the characters and wanted more time with them. I enjoyed their changes theoughout the story.

MM - historical fantasy - white MCs - moderate steam - pov third dual - child free - class gap (wealthy MMC)  - closeted - mental health rep - forced proximity - great narration - mature MCs (30s) - military - 5 stars.

Definitely reminiscent of the Will Darling Adventures, we’ve got a lot of mystery and adventure, but add in a really interesting magical world building, like A Charm of Magpies. Essentially, classic KJ Charles and I am sad that it doesn’t appear that the series will be continued. 

Audio narration was very good.
