Hamilton's Battalion: A Trio of Romances by Courtney Milan, Alyssa Cole, Rose Lerner

5.0

Some of my very favorite romance authors. I was SO excited when I heard about this book, and I don't even care at all about Hamilton.

Hamilton's Battalion is basically everything I was hoping it would be. All three stories were wonderful and meaningful and romantic. I loved the variety of relationships, the range of characters, and even the central narrative device. It meant so much to see queer relationships in a historical setting that were accepted and supported. I also appreciated that the authors were very intentional in addressing the short-comings and hypocrisies of the American Revolution. The first two stories, in particular, were quite political.

I adored all of the stories, but "That Could Be Enough" was without question my favorite. The story itself is incredible, and Alyssa Cole's note at the end made me cry. I loved the heroines so much, and Mercy's character arc is gorgeous. Alyssa Cole is the author out of these three whom I've read the least, but I intend to read all of her books I've missed ASAP.
