Miss Frederica "Free" Marshall has put her heart and soul into her newspaper, known for its outspoken support of women's rights. Naturally, her enemies are intent on destroying her business and silencing her for good. Free refuses to be at the end of her rope...but she needs more rope, and she needs it now.

just fun

5 stars

if you like romances and suffragettes and newspapers and hatred of the British aristocracy, this is the romance for you! I mean, yes, of course it turns out that individual dukes etc are okay, but the premise is the institution is bad and that women are awesome and newspapers are powerful. There's some weird thing with a queer female subplot that is just lovely and explicitly romantic, but a queer male subplot being super coded, and I don't know what's up with that. But Milan's writing high quality romance here with a whole bunch of different tropes squished into one book.
