Omg I loved Gilly and Thornley. The forced proximity vibe was so well done. I also enjoyed that Gilly wasn't your standard historical romance heroine. She was tough, independent and knew how to take care of herself in tough situations. That being said I did like seeing her explore her "princess" side. It was fun and Thornley liked her no matter her occupation or what she wore. I'm glad her story was next in the Trewlove's tales. Seeing her relationship with her brothers and Fancy was quite lovely and I loved all the familial camaraderie. The tension in this one was also INSANE and I was so excited for these two to really be together. I loved this book and I'm so excited to continue with more love stories from this family.
