I can’t quite give this 5 stars simply because it’s not Robin and Edwin. I much prefer those two and as unfair as it is towards Maud and Violet, it is what it is. Maybe it was the limited and thus repetitive spaces they were in. It felt like the book wanted too much.. 

This was much more plot driven than the first book, which was pretty awesome. I was afraid it would be worse.

Lord Hawthorn and Alan Ross are giving Pride and Prejudice and I hope I’ll be right ngl. 
The smut felt awkward. Idk if it’s because it’s wlw which is smut I rarely ever read or because of how different it was.


Now to wait a whole year for the next book.. I hope that one will be back to being as amazing as the first one.
