This was very well written, and the character of Viola was amazing. She was likeable and funny, and written in a very respectable way (in my opinion as a cis-gender bi woman). The plot eventually got very repetitive however, as once the duke and Viola knew who each other were, and had shared their feelings, they both just seemed to agree that they could not be together. This went on for half the book, and then at the end, they just decide to be together - something that could have been done much sooner and with very little effort. Still, it was a good read, and it gave me the Pride and Prejudice vibes that I was looking for when I picked up this book.
