|Thoughts|
An historical romance that looks at life in London outside of the artistic and balls (although, we get some of that too). 

“Our whole world is built by men. For men. And where simply here for decoration…well I grow tired”

Thoughts the premise was unique. With 4 siblings, all born on the same day. Only 1 is legitimate but she is a women. 

Story revolves heavily around the idea of revenge and the challenges women face in a world where their main focus is on marriage. This was a refreshing take on historical romance. 

“The world is full of doors”. Lord knew that was true. “I like to open my own doors”. 


“It’s quiet illegal to enter anyone’s home without permission Felicity Faircloth”

Enjoyed the romance however, it verge a little on Insta love and a touch of miscommunication. 

“You deserve the darkness”
