Today I’m reviewing The Rebel and the Rose by Catherine Doyle — a sweeping historical romantasy full of political tension, forbidden loyalties, and a romance that burns slow, sharp, and absolutely worth the payoff.

With revolution simmering, royal secrets unraveling, and stakes that rise with every chapter, this book delivers drama, emotion, and danger in equal measure. Doyle builds a world where love is both a weapon and a lifeline — and the chemistry? Immaculate.

If you love morally conflicted love interests, court politics, rebellions, and romance set against high stakes and impossible choices, this story is going to hit you right in the feelings.
