𝓣𝓱𝓮 𝓣𝓻𝓾𝓽𝓱 𝓐𝓫𝓸𝓾𝓽 𝓜𝔂𝓽𝓱𝓼 by Giovanna Siniscalchi is a 5-star read for me and one of the best historical romance books I've ever read!
I happened to stumble across this book while scrolling Instagram, read the synopsis, and fell in love. This book was so heartwarming. I'm a sucker for historical fiction/romance so this book hit the spot for me. I stayed up all night devouring it! It was so beautifully written.
Our FMC, Isabel is a prudish and patriotic princess, she holds her country and her duty above all else. Our MMC, Henrique is a rakish viscount scientist and is pragmatic in every sense. The love story in this book is swoon-worthy and the rich culture and history made me feel as if I had been transported back in time to 19th-century Portugal.
This book blew me away! I loved that every chapter started with a famous literary quote. From the forbidden romance to the brother's best friend vibe, this book was absolute perfection. And the spice!!! 🔥 The author did an amazing job weaving this story together. The pacing, the plot, and the slow burn were all perfectly written.
I highly recommend reading this if you enjoy historical fiction, historical romance, or just reading in general!
