god i don't even know where to start. this is my second time reading this book & i am so glad i decided to reread. mainly bc i forgot half of the plot. oops. but besides the point, this books gets a solid 5/5 stars.

this book is an 18th century spicy & chaotic romance, drama, & adventure novel that kept taking unexpected turns every page. i can't say i ever got bored while reading. each chapter was just *chefs kiss*, written to perfection. i am absolutely so in love with every character, despite how messy & imperfect they are. honestly, the messiness of the characters is what makes them so lovable.

it’s a painfully slow burn story between two forbidden lovers — not forbidden bc of their family, but bc of the thing that dangles between both of their legs & the fact that ones pigmentation is darker than the others. 

i highly suggest this book to everyone & hope they enjoy it @ much as i do. :)
