This book had all the things I thought the first missed: centered more on the characters of Locke and Jean, I fell in love with both of them again. The twin narratives of their childhood and adulthood offer wonderful studies of their characters while also having them be incorrigible bastards. This book has so much heart, and I'm delightfully surprised to find out there's a book 4.
I so desperately want to be a Gentleman Bastard
