I had such a fun time reading this book. I loved both of the characters from the beginning and how attracted they were to one another from their first meeting. Instalust is a thing despite how some reviews don't like it. Personally, I love it. Hades is a doctor who is just trying to do right by his family. Lady Ophelia wants to help women who are trying to escape a bad situation and also avoid being married off to a man she cannot tolerate and will keep her down. Hades appreciates Ophelia's brains (and beauty) and she loves how he sees her as an equal. The author also gave us another little surprise about Hades that is one of my personal favorite microtropes but I'm going to let you find out what that is on your own. This was my first book by this author but not last!
