You make me want to open this book! It sounds refreshing compared to our current plot recycling.

I want this book simply for the cover! 😍

I found this book randomly in a little free library. It is a good time. haha. Totally crazy.

I love my Heros extra campy.

There were a LOT of similar plots back in the 80s too! I just don't talk about them because they aren't interesting. On the same token, I think there's a lot of more recent authors doing exciting things. I'd highly recommend Cecilia Grant, Meredith Duran, Rona Sharon, and Minerva Spenser. Their books have pretty unique plots!

OMG, I'm so jealous. I haven't found a bodice-ripper in an LFL for ages.

I love a campy hero too! These old skool historicals can be so unselfconsciously silly, even when they're dark, and I love that!
