Publisher Description
A lush, sweeping queer historical romance from the bestselling author of Boyfriend Material—perfect for fans of Netflix’s Bridgerton, Evie Dunmore, and Lisa Kleypas!
When Viola Carroll was presumed dead at Waterloo she took the opportunity to live, at last, as herself. But freedom does not come without a price, and Viola paid for hers with the loss of her wealth, her title, and her closest companion, Justin de Vere, the Duke of Gracewood.
Only when their families reconnect, years after the war, does Viola learn how deep that loss truly was. Shattered without her, Gracewood has retreated so far into grief that Viola barely recognises her old friend in the lonely, brooding man he has become.
As Viola strives to bring Gracewood back to himself, fresh desires give new names to old feelings. Feelings that would have been impossible once and may be impossible still, but which Viola cannot deny. Even if they cost her everything, all over again.

"Hall seamlessly combines humor, romance, and drama to create a story that is intimately believable and at once cozy and sexy. . . . The book combines sweet escapism and poignant cultural touchstones with well-crafted characters and hilariously familiar settings. Hall does it again with this culturally relevant, wonderfully escapist foray into the baking world. This is a must-buy for any library."
— Library Journal on Rosaline Palmer Takes the Cake
Quotes
-
“A Regency romance suffused with yearning that culminates in a richly satisfying happily ever after…The British writer has hit it out of the park with this emotionally resonant, character-driven Regency romance…[a] nuanced, swoony, and a stellar example of what romance can do.”
— BookPage (starred review) -
“Hall is a consistently beautiful writer, but this story…may be his best yet.”
— Kirkus Reviews (starred review) -
“The period banter is unparalleled as Hall pulls his characters out of the drawing room and into far closer quarters. He explores difficult subjects with a sharpness matched only by the tenderness underpinning the relationship between Viola and Gracewood."
— Publishers Weekly (starred review) -
[Hall] crafts some of the most sparkling prose in contemporary romance. . . . we give this fully baked concept our highest compliments.
— Entertainment Weekly on Rosaline Palmer Takes the Cake -
Hall does it again with this scrumptious, quietly subversive rom-com again . . . Hilarious, heartwarming, and grounded, Rosaline's story proves that happy endings look different from person to person.
— Publishers Weekly on Rosaline Palmer Takes the Cake -
Hall has a gift for humor but is also skilled at composing passages that evoke the deepest emotions, whether the ache of long-denied love, crushing grief or the relief and soulful joy of being accepted and adored as one's most authentic self.
