“Need was only weakness by another name. And if someone could give you what you needed, they could just as easily take it away.”
- There’s only one bed
- Bisexual main characters
- Robin Hood & Maid Marian inspired
- Hurt/Comfort and trauma recovery
If you like period pieces, and you like excellent banter, steamy romance, “there’s only one bed!,” and enemies-to-friends-to-lovers, please pick up this book when it releases on June 7th, 2022. You won’t regret it for a moment.

The book opens with Rob blackmailing Marian in letter format because her husband is actually legally married to someone else, leaving her marriage (and her best friend Percy's inheritance) in peril.
Things I loved:
-Grumpy f/sunshine m!
-It gave me fluttery feelings
-All the sex is
-The consent-seeking is so completely explicit and clear and non-awkward
-I adore characters that accidentally rescue animals
-Lovely to see Percy and Kit again
-The characters feel real- both have flaws
-The letters! They're lovely and convincing and lovely.
-Found family
Unlike many romance series (including most of Cat Sebastian's others), you would really want to read The Queer Principles of Kit Webb first before reading this- they take place in overlapping timelines and this would completely spoil Kit Webb's twists and probably make less sense without it.
Thanks for NetGalley and the publishers for giving me an eARC in return for an honest review!
