But the minute Diana and Geoffrey meet, sparks fly (along with their barbs) and things only get more interesting (and sexier) from there.
As you probably know by now, I absolutely love an enemies or rivals to lovers premise and though it wasn’t as enemies to lovers-esque as I would’ve liked the tension between our protagonists was really good. I did enjoy that both Diana and Geoffrey seemed to be disillusioned by the ton and its aversion to scandal, it definitely helped to showcase just how well matched they were.
The pacing was a little slow at times, however the romance did more than make up for it, being completely off the charts. Their locations for illicit meet-ups were also surprisingly top tier. At Almack’s, in carriages and even an old Laboratory—there were soo many delicious moments that I really loved.
It’s definitely worth a read if you enjoy old school regency romances or any of Sabrina Jeffries’ other books.
And also a massive thank you to Headline Eternal for the finished copy.
Moderate: Sexual content and Infidelity
Minor: Suicide and Death of parent
