3.5
I enjoyed this book! The characters were fun to follow and, by the halfway point, I was really rooting for them to get their HEA. I ended up giving it a 3.5 just because the writing wasn’t as strong as Sebastian’s other books, mainly with backstory reveals not feeling very natural and the miscommunication got more frustrating than fun at times. Still, I recommend this if you want a m/m historical fix! Reading The Lawrence Browne Affair is a must before reading this, though - it’s a spin-off and would feel awkward without that background.
