A Counterfeit Betrothal/The Notorious Rake

Balogh's stories often explore social mobility and love — I'm curious how she decided to combine these themes in this dual narrative.

Their banter and emotional tension felt so genuine, but I wonder if others sensed the same subtle sparks that made their connection feel real.

The Regency era's social rules seem to shape every decision, but I wonder what aspects Balogh emphasized most in her character development.
