If Red, White, and Royal Blue had a book baby with A Civil Campaign, it would look like this book. 
It delights me beyond reason. 
It is, on one level, about five romance tropes dressed up in a dust jacket. And it’s also a magnificent example of how tropes are not BAD and, like all novelistic convention, it is the skill with which they are deployed that makes the book. And they were perfect here.
