3.5
I've desperately enjoyed some of Cat Sebastian's other books (like Hither, Page - an all-time fave) and I'm a history buff for this time period, so I'm not quite sure why I'm not IN love with this one.
It's a good time, the characters are great, and the plot is interesting on paper, but the stakes just didn't feel intense enough for what's supposed to be a pretty emotionally charged heist. And, as a great lover of heists, there was not enough actual planning or heisting for me :(
But all that aside, it's a fun queer historical romance romp and the cast are quite easy to get attached to. If you're more interested in seeing the emotional connections between the characters come together than highwayman action - I'd recommend.
