I was able to read this book early via e-arc, which I got from Edelweiss. So thank you, Edelweiss!

TW: depiction of chronic illness, ableism, internalized ableism, PTSD, addiction, mention of past abuse(physical and emotional)

Two Rogues Make a Right was definitely a satisfying installment to the Seducing the Sedgwicks series, and might even be my favorite Cat Sebastian book yet. The build-up from the past two books towards this newest book paid off, and made the reading experience very rewarding. One thing I was pleasantly surprised by was how soft the romance between our two main characters, given how things were left off in the previous book (in which they were side characters). I also loved the character growth that both of our leads went through, and how they both were able to find healing by themselves as well as with each other. This book left me feeling emotionally raw and tender in the best of ways, especially because I could painfully relate to one of the main leads. Reading about how touch starved this character was, and how deliberately he tried to make himself miserable because he thought it was what he deserved, made me feel like someone had suddenly exposed a deeply vulnerable part of myself.

Anyway, I would definitely recommend this series if you like historical romance, and even if you don't read historical romance regularly, I would encourage you to try something out of your comfort zone and pick this series up along with other books by Cat Sebastian, because they truly are a standout.

TW: riot/protests, period-typical homophobia, mention of death of a partner

Throughout most of this book I was thinking that it was a solid four-star read. But then the last few chapters warmed my heart so much and I couldn't not bump it up at least a half star. Both the plot and the romance are slow burn, but the pay off is definitely worth it in both areas. Not just the two main characters, but even the supporting characters were fleshed-out, making them seem like real people. I loved the discussion of the feminist themes that were present in this book, just like how they were present in the previous book in this series. I also loved how the books in this series, along with many other books, continue to show that the lgbtq+ community has always existed, and that we will always find a way to gather together and carve out a space for ourselves, in spite of and in defiance of hate and bigotry.
