What this book is about

Robert Thier's Victorian romance follows Lilly, who disguises herself as a young man to vote in the 1840s British election and is caught by the formidably wealthy and ruthless Mr. Ambrose, who makes her his secretary. The novel is a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers set in a lovingly researched Victorian England with feminist themes. Clean romantic content; appropriate for all ages.
