I listened to the audio version of this book, and I enjoyed every minute of it. The narrator did an excellent job with both male and female voices in the dual POV of this story. The author did an amazing job on the writing, and I couldn't stop reading.
I thought it was historically accurate, well rounded characters, and a story that kept me entertained the entire time. What more could I ask for? I can't wait for more from this author. I highly recommend this to the historical fiction and romance readers. I liked this, I did, I really did. I just think it could have been a lot shorter. There seemed to be a lot of repetitiveness and a few scenes that could have been combined or shortened.
Also the one guy showing up at the end with a gun seemed like an afterthought. But, I still liked the story and I liked seeing a heroine going after what she wanted. I also liked the incorporation of a timely subject in a historical setting when it came to the services that Aurora was providing to the women of Paris. The audiobook narration was fantastic. Frankie Corzo is one of my favorite narrators and she always does a fantastic job.
As with any dual POV though I would have loved to also have a male narrator, but Frankie does a great job with male voices so it's not missed too much. Adriana Herrera does it again with swoony romance, FMCs with ironclad resolve, and historic context that both educates and empowers.
It was both humbling and empowering to learn about the historically organized networks of women and people who knew reproductive rights are human rights. The historical accuracy and the social commentary of this novel are right on point. I also think the series is great for fans of the Bridgerton TV show who yearn to see a Latina protagonist in the cast! This audiobook was perfection!
