This book makes me want to scream and dance with joy. I knew I was going to love it when I saw a romance novel with a JEWISH MAN WEARING A YARMUKLE ON THE COVER! Felicia Grossman did not disappoint. This book was so wholly Jewish, not just through the main characters, but through the mannerisms, the language used by Jewish people regularly, as well as cultural references. I love the historical romance, but this one might have exceeded all expectations. It's like Bridgerton but make it Jewish and it was so well done. I loved Isabelle's fiercely feminist energy, and how she was unafraid to continue her legacy after her father had passed. I also loved Aaron. He was encouraging and thoughtful and I loved this gender swapped Cinderella vibe. There was so much pining and yearning and I was LIVING for it. This book is a work of art and I know it's going to be a new favorite of mine. Thank you to Forever Publishing for sending me an e-ARC to read and review!
