I'm a simple woman; I love to see a reserved, starchy hero become increasingly more unglued over the heroine as a book progresses. This book gave me exactly that. It delighted me how awkward Gavin and Emilia were.
I just wish it were a bit longer because with a little more relationship development and a slower burn this would have been perfect.

Starchy barrister Gavin and governess Emilia make an explosive combination. I loved how Emilia brought out the best in Gavin and Gavin helped Emilia grow into her confidence as well. I also absolutely adored the cameos from Nate, Cora, Tess and Leo (and now baby Theo!)
from Forever Your Rogue.
I loved the plot in this and the exploration of class difference (one of my FAVORITE themes in hissy RoNos), I am also absolute trash for a starchy boi who is completely undone by his love interest, and Gavin is that x10000
