Unmasked by the Marquess

Cat Sebastian never disappoints with her witty queer historical romances, and this one shines with banter, exploring gender roles and identity as the new marquess helps launch his father's goddaughter into society but falls for her disguised non-binary companion instead. The Regency-era plot twists motives—like pissing off the dad's mistress—into a cute, messy love story with deep discussions on power dynamics that felt fresh and insightful. I pictured the marquess as a brooding Anthony Bridgerton type, making him instantly palatable, and all characters were lovable. It's a must-read for anyone craving smart, inclusive historical romance with heart.
