Description

In the rigid, suffocating drawing rooms of Regency England, Lady Charlotte lives a life defined by impossible standards. As a noblewoman bound by duty and social expectation, she has spent years mastering the art of the perfect facade. But when Delina enters her orbit, the carefully constructed script of Charlotte’s life begins to unravel. What begins as a wary acquaintance quickly shifts into a profound, secret connection that defies the era’s stifling conventions. As the two women navigate the treacherous waters of the aristocracy, they are forced to confront the truth of their own desires. Their journey is a delicate dance of stolen glances and whispered confessions, capturing the intensity of a queer awakening set against a backdrop of opulence and historical peril. This story is a heartfelt exploration of identity and the courage required to choose one’s own path when the world demands conformity. Readers will be captivated by the mental gymnastics of two women realizing their love for each other in a time that offered no language for their bond. It is a lush, erotic, and deeply emotional romance that celebrates the power of finding a soulmate who sees past the mask to the woman underneath.

Beautiful queer awaking in Regency England

I loved this book! This was a queer awakening, sapphic historical romance set in Regency era England. Lady Charlotte and Delina's story was a delightful read, watching them slowly realize their feelings towards each other and how much they struggled with those feelings felt so realistic. In a time period when homosexuality was certainly not openly discussed with young ladies, it was very believable that they literally wouldn't know what they were feeling or be able to understand them. I wonder if Delina never received a push from Lucinda, if she ever would have understood her own sexuality. Lady Charlotte did seem more aware of her desire for Delina as she was actively repressing her thoughts and feelings - refusing to let herself dwell on any potentially romantic feeling towards her friend and companion. I loved their ending and was so glad that in Charlotte and Delinas happy ending, we also got a happy ending for Delinas mother and siblings too!

Impossible to put down

There is so much to love about this book. You feel Charlotte's struggle to hold herself to standards that are impossible for her. I adore the way the characters gradually understand how their feelings for each other have developed and grown. At a time when women are expected to marry, they carve out their own path. The historical accuracy sets the scene, but these brave women defy society and determine their own future.

Sapphic History FTW!

I loved the mental gymnastics of the main characters slowly realizing how they really feel about each other in a time where the social scripts annihilated ideas outside marriage to men. I also really appreciated the attention to historical detail! Side note, I might be a touch in love with Lucinda. arc.
