The Perfect Crimes of Marian Hayes Google Books
author: Cat Sebastian publishing house: HarperCollins 2022 - 06
Cat Sebastian returns to Georgian London with a stunning tale of a reluctant criminal and the thief who cannot help but love her.
Marian Hayes, the Duchess of Clare, just shot her husband. Of course, the evil, murderous man deserved what was coming to him, but now she must flee to the countryside. Unfortunately, the only person she can ask for help is the charismatic criminal who is blackmailing her—and who she may have left tied up a few hours before…A highwayman, con artist, and all-around cheerful villain, Rob Brooks is no stranger to the wrong side of the law or the right side of anybody’s bed. He never meant to fall for the woman whose secrets he promised to keep for the low price of five hundred pounds, but how could he resist someone who led him on a merry chase all over London, left him tied up in a seedy inn, and then arrived covered in her husband’s blood and in desperate need of his help?As they flee across the country—stopping to pick pockets, drink to excess, and rescue invalid cats—they discover more true joy and peace than either has felt in ages. But when the truth of Rob’s past catches up to him, they must decide if they are willing to reshape their lives in order to forge a future together.

读过 The Perfect Crimes of Marian Hayes 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑
迅速读完的无脑romance,是Kit Webb那本的续作,主线是Rob写信勒索以及Marian杀了公爵这些故事的细节但是谁在乎【。这本的主线存在感比Kit Webb那本还弱……重点显然还是在Marian和Rob的关系上……讲真读以前就知道设定是两个人都是双性恋,但还是担心过会不会写得太直人谈恋爱(贬义,直人如果觉得被冒犯那不要怀疑就是你的问题(。实话讲开始觉得有一点,越到后面越觉得还是跳出了这个框架的,更像是Marian主导Rob服从的D/S,无论是性还是日常交往都是这个dynamic,虽然两个人的相处模式并不算太戳我,化学反应一般般,但这个处理还是超出预期的……发展到最后是一个Robin Hood+found family的故事,所以虽然古早同人文味儿很冲,它还是很queer的,作为暖心无脑读物也够用了(存在一点问题是这本banter含量真的有点超标,人物设定的原因,Percy和Marian对话的时候我,一个如此喜欢看banter的人,都觉得脑阔子疼
