Your girl’s fully immersed in her Bridgerton era so I’m reading any regency histrom I can get my hands on. 

This was actually my first KJ Charles and it did not disappoint. Gareth and Joss quickly burrowed themselves in my heart and I think they might be one of my fav fictional couples of all time. They truly made each other better people and I love that in my romance. I also loved all of the side characters and their queer acceptance (despite it being 1810). And the found family trope was executed perfectly in this book. I was so happy that Gareth, the baby angel of my life, finally got the family he deserved 🥹

Starting book 2 ASAP!
