trigger warnings: sexual content, homophobia, labour exploitation, imprisonment and forced labour mention, death of family, financial ruin, emotional abuse
This book was so sweet! I loved Sophie and Maddie so so so much. Their dynamic of sly and sweet was so perfectly complimentary and the development of their relationship as they rub off on each other and adopt each other's mannerisms was just so pure.
I love and am obsessed with Olivia Waite's books being set during massive political movements/labour movements during the industrial revolution. It lends so much life to the early 1800s that high society regency books sorely lack.
