Another great listen for Coldbreath fans. Her books are steamy but slower paced and feature lovely period-appropriate details about the food they eat, artistic pursuits, how they clothe and bathe themselves etc. MMCs are full of chivalrous ideals and are jealous and overbearing by modern standards (but totally charmed by their FMCs leading to lots of passion!).
I highly recommend listening to the Vawdry Brothers series before starting this one as they are in the same world and feature the same characters; if you listen to this series first there are minor spoilers.

Long burn that ends satisfyingly
Évalué le: 2024-02-01
this wasn't my favourite at first, but by the end I loved it. there was a real emotional truth to the characters that I loved, and due to how the plot is constructed there is very little of the "I'm not worthy!" inner monologue that can plague some other of Balogh's novels.
not sure about the other reviewer's dislike of Ralph ... Honestly I found his character progression more believable than many other male characters, and I thought he was very masculine. You can have emotional depth and still be masculine!
