The annual Earls Trip of 1821 started off with a rescue mission to save some childhood friends and snowballs into two weeks of fun, friendship and exploration. I really adored this childhood friends to lovers romance. One of my favorite things was how the author wrote the characters with some very progressive thoughts for the time when this was set. I especially loved how the main three male characters show different forms of masculinity without being toxic.
