‘Trouble’ by Lex Croucher
Genre: Adult Fiction – Historical Romance
Published: 2023
Format: Paperback
Rating: ★★★★
This is my third book by Lex Croucher and they’re just addictive! The characters are damaged in some way, but that is part of the charm and humour. It was light-hearted, funny, and relaxing to read. It’s the kind of book you just don’t want to put down once you’re into it.
The reason for dropping a star…

William Laurence truly has one of the funniest character arcs of all time. He does a complete 360 over the course of the series. Totally turned around yet somehow exactly where he started. He completely changed his worldview while being absolutely steadfast about it. He undergoes impressive character development while his character does not change at all. He is so damn stubborn about his preconceived notions of honor that he is willing to abandon his preconceived notions of dragons, gender, and race. He transcends the regency society he lives in not by breaking the confines of rigid values but by expanding those confines to include everyone.

when Laurence said "you are a gentlewoman, and a gentlewoman's daughter" and a fifteen-year-old Emily Roland bristled with outrage and said "I am an OFFICER"

So my roommate is obsessed with Bridgerton, and because of this, even though I’ve only ever seen pieces of episodes, it’s one of those things I enjoy by osmosis. And I cannot help but think about the fact that it is set in 1813-1814, which is right around the end of the Temeraire novels.
Anyway, imagine Laurence trying to convince Emily and Jane that it’s not a bad idea for Emily to have at least her first season like the gentlewoman she is. Imagine how proud he would be to present her looking so lovely in a dress and turning heads. Imagine how quickly he would come to regret every decision he’s ever made as it devolved into absolute chaos.
