@KirBlacketer I'm a sucker for this one, typically in histrom. Evie Dunmore's PORTRAIT OF A SCOTSMAN is PEAK marriage of convenience. Chloe Liese pulled off a contemporary version of the trope well in WITH YOU FOREVER.

Sir Walter Scott

I am WOEFULLY behind on my word goal, but I'm proud of what I have written. Edgar and Cecily have now discussed Sir Walter Scott's The Antiquary and the flashback arc is getting precariously close to its crisis: https://t.co/lxx6sfpoRh https://t.co/fPJRxG20zf
