Description

As Lucy Muchelney watches her ex-lover’s sham of a wedding, she wishes herself anywhere else. It isn’t until she finds a letter from the Countess of Moth, looking for someone to translate a groundbreaking French astronomy text, that she knows where to go. Showing up at the Countess’ London home, she hoped to find a challenge, not a woman who takes her breath away.Catherine St Day looks forward to a quiet widowhood once her late husband’s scientific legacy is fulfilled. She expected to hand off the translation and wash her hands of the project—instead, she is intrigued by the young woman who turns up at her door, begging to be allowed to do the work, and she agrees to let Lucy stay. But as Catherine finds herself longing for Lucy, everything she believes about herself and her life is tested.While Lucy spends her days interpreting the complicated French text, she spends her nights falling in love with the alluring Catherine. But sabotage and old wounds threaten to sever the threads that bind them. Can Lucy and Catherine find the strength to stay together or are they doomed to be star-crossed lovers?

⤷‧₊˚3 ⭑ “we thought we were separate satellites, but we aren’t. we’re stars, and though we might burn separately, we’ll always be in one another’s orbit.” I've wanted to read it for a long time and finally did it. i was hoping I'd enjoy it even though i'm not a historical romance girl and yeah surprise i didn't enjoy it as much as i hoped. it’s actually not a bad book. i liked the writing style it was beautifully written and soothing. also, i really liked the love between lucy and catherine but sometimes it was a bit boring.

A hopeful reminder to go after your goals and to not let anyone stand in your way to success & happiness. ✨

As a woman in science this book feels as if it had been written for me. I loved every bit of the rebellious, strong (yet vulnerable) female characters and how they support each other to achieve their dreams. All of that in a time where neither lucys profession nor their relationship were accepted by society.
