Two disclosures before I start this review:
1) I'm not sure I'm able to be objective about it since my response is so strongly emotional
2) There's a bit of a spoiler in the second paragraph but not really a spoiler? You'll see.
If you...
- love girls or the tv show Younger

Today we are thrilled to share a beautiful cover with you - the second historical romance from Felicia Grossman. If you've been following us for a while, you'll recall that Margrethe adored the first book in this series, Appetites & Vices.
This book has made me a liar. It turns out that I’m not as tired of gaming hells as I thought. Nor am I that tired of aristocrats who can’t believe in love because of past abuse.

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a resident of Romancelandia in possession of a few hours of free time, must be in want of their next great read. It’s a also a truth, less universally acknowledged, that in order for that read to qualify as “great” it also has to be, on some level, relatable. And it is a bitter truth, often whispered but rarely acknowledged, that “relatable” is frequently coded language for white.
