Liana's book is a fierce reminder why I love and push non-white historical romance so much. She does not shy away from the actual history (her authors note gave me chills) and includes strong brown women getting their fiercest HEAs. Sirius Dawson, the only gringo I root for in this book lmao. A man down bad for his woman but has his head to far up his own self-sacrificial ass to realize what is in front of him. I love Ana Maria and Gideon pero dios I adoreeeee Isa and Sirius. These books are only getting better, I cannot wait to see what's in store for book 3.
