This is a bdsm, historical marriage of convenience romance with a submissive hero. That really checks a lot of boxes for me personally lol but this book is long winded in regards to how long our hero keeps his secret, there’s a lot of angst, and not really as steamy as I thought it was going to be for a bdsm romance, even historical.
That being said, I did enjoy my time reading this book and I love that Archer is truly a romantic once he gets out of his own way. A lot of things Poppy did really infuriated me but she does eventually learn and grow
