Series: Lucky Lovers of London

Love can make even the most buttoned-up bluestocking come undone... London, 1885

A lesbian in a lavender marriage, Jo Smith cuts a dashing figure in pin-striped trousers, working in her bookshop and keeping impolite company. But her hard-earned stability is about to be upended thanks to her husband's pregnant paramour, who needs medical attention that no reputable doctor will provide.

Enter Dr. Emily Clarke, a tantalizing bluestocking working at a quaint village hospital outside the city. Emily has reservations about getting mixed up in Jo's scandalous arrangement, but her flustered, heart-racing response to Jo has her agreeing to help despite herself.

There's a world of difference between Jo's community of underground clubs and sapphic societies and Emily's respectable suburbs. Perhaps it's a gap that even fervent desire can't bridge.

But for those bold enough to take the risk, who knows what delicious adventures might be in store...

Reviews for A Bluestocking's Guide to Decadence

"""A compelling romance between two very different women nonconformists in Victorian England that's a good fit for any reader who enjoys queer historical romance.""--Library Journal ""Obstacles abound for these two women, but most are either easily surmounted or rationally discussed, leaving a satisfying amount of conflict, and the focus on community and mutual aid is especially timely. Emily, Jo, and their motley companions will win over Everlee's established fans and new readers alike.""--Publishers Weekly"
