A Shore Thing

Queer happiness makes me giddy! This book was just so sweet but also a little steamy, important but not heavy-handed, low angst but still had me yearning. I just loved how Lowell didn’t stress over Kit’s identity as being a “problem” and the main conflict bc it made room for a story that focused on love and just queer happiness. And that’s the whole point right? Not every book has to be a human rights crusade. And I understand in historical fiction it’s much harder to write a book where one can normalize a queer romance without touching on how the social backdrop doesn’t affect it but this book is a great example where historical context is organically woven in without upstaging what’s simply just a sweet, fun and delightful romance book.

P.S. I’ve read all of Joanna Lowell’s books and I adore them! Cannot recommend her enough!
