This was adorable🥰. I love a feisty FMC, and Lottie fit the bill perfectly. I also enjoyed how Guy just couldn't cope with how smart and blunt she was, so he had no choice in how he felt. With historicals, I think it's a tough needle to thread to deal with the mores of the time period, and still try to make it "feel" current. Heath did a great job and this was a good time.😍
