Both Penn and Raff have very real and valid feelings about finding out who the other is, but they are also called out on their hypocrisy. But just know it’s swoony, never boring, the pacing is perfect for this timeline, and the siblings are great (just wait for the hints👀)I’d say spice scale 2/5 🌶️ I would have liked a bit more details about the setting as I didn’t get a strong feel of medieval England.

This was the queer historical romcom that I didn’t know I needed! As far as you need. Thanks to NetGalley and Mills and Boon for providing me with an eARC, I pot tgis review voluntarily and all opinions are my own.

One of my favourite tropes is secret identity, where one or both characters don't know the other's true identity and/or are hiding their own, and this one delivers on two fronts - and here the reveal wasn't swept under the rug either. This I loved a lot. Penn and Raff have an unexpectedly bloody meet-cute in the woods, but their attraction for one another is instant.

I know lots of people don't expect thorough historical research from 'just' a romance novel, and that's fair, I'm however of the opinion that setting influences character, and if the setting is missing crucial aspects, then so will the characters. His relationships with Raff & Penn had me laughing (as well as other emotions) I just want more! Well, I’m sorry, but Raff AND Penn both have my heart!

The story was focused on the blossoming romance between Raff and Penn, which Denny developed with finesse. as far as you wantI thought this book sounded super cute when I read the blurb, and I wasn't disappointed.
