Having enjoyed Olivia Waite’s previous novel in this series, I have to say I loved this one even more. A classic “slow-burn” style romance with many enticing elements. While it connects to the previous book, this serves well as a stand-alone and I would actually recommend this one as an introduction to the author.
Without giving too much away this featured:
Older protagonists (yes please!)
Erotic statues
An eye into historical queer life
A mystery!
Clever recounting and use of real historical events
Beekeeping
Social commentary on suffrage, divorce, feminism and women’s role in society
Solid happily ever afters for all involved
This one is a must-read for summer!
