A Love By Design
Elizabeth Everett
336 pages | Published by Berkley
Margaret has moved back to London from Paris with the intent of starting her own engineering firm, even if her only supporters are that of the secret science club for women, Athena's Retreat. When she is reunited with her childhood friend and first love, the Earl Grantham, it looks like they could have a second chance, but their relationship puts both of their livelihoods at risk.
I just REALLY love this series. Maggie and George might be my favorite characters of this series so far. Grantham is a pure cinnamon roll and I love him so much 😭
Obviously women supporting women is a major theme for the series, but I really enjoyed this version where the line between right and wrong was so blurred. It was the most divided we'd seen Athena's Retreat and it was a very interesting dynamic.
I'm also obsessed with best bro frenemies Grantham and Kneland. They were hysterical and I could read a whole series about them a la the Bromance Book Club.
Thanks to Netgalley & Berkley for the advanced e-book!
