Okay so this book is basically everything I want in a m/m historical romance. We have a rogue with secrets who has a heart of gold, a mad scientist who's a recluse and has his OWN secrets, a gothic backstory that actually makes sense and comes to a satisfying resolution, both external conflict that matters and emotional conflict that can only be solved by both characters communicating and growing and they actually do that, and all of the supporting characters are great and charming and don't just feel like plot devices. Essentially, if the idea of a Beauty and the Beast story in which the Beauty is a con artist who gets a job as the secretary for the mad scientist Beast (who is essentially like Belle's father) appeals to you, go read this book immediately. I read it four months ago and loved it and now I'm going to read it again in preparation for this author's next book, which is due out soon.
