Imagine being able to time travel and going back to series 1 and telling Sister Bernadette that this will be her life! Telling her she’ll be honest with herself, with Patrick. She’ll leave the order but not her sisters. Sister Bernadette will become Shelagh, she will marry Patrick with everyone she loves most around her. Timothy will call her mum and love her so much more than she could ever imagine. Tell her she will be a mum to four children that worship and test her and Patrick at the same time. They will affectionately be known as ‘The Turners’. They will have their ups and down, but always have each other. She will continue to work in the community as a nurse and midwife, and that community will continue to love her dearly.

Imagine being able to time travel back to series 1 to tell Sister Bernadette that she will find her path in life and she will be loved, complete and fulfilled.

Queer books, day 22/30

Okay, I wrote this all and then Tumblr ate it, so here we go again. LOL help.

Here we have Oliver Rivington, former army captain lately invalided home. He comes to see Jack Turner when he discovers his sister, Lady Montbray, has paid him 200 GBP. (This is like FOURTEEN THOUSAND POUNDS in today's money, so he is probably right to be concerned, actually.) Jack is a former scallywag turned private eye who tells Oliver to fuck off. While they're bickering, another client arrives--a woman with some missing letters--and Oliver starts in on the "exactly what kind of operation are you running here?"

Fortunately(?), Oliver has literally nothing better to do than to harass Jack and try to dig up dirt on him. This leads to shouting. Angry, stressed makeouts in an alley after an attempted mugging. A road trip that is full of intense longing and the two of them teasing each other sexually. Being detectives together as a love language! It's amazing, honestly. All written with Cat Sebastian's characteristic wit and "eat the rich" attitude, with a defense of women and the power men hold over them on the side. Lovely.

Key quote:

The lady obviously spent her days reading, napping, and eating biscuits. He didn’t know whether to be disgusted or jealous.

To be honest, this one has a bit of a rough landing. It's one romance novel where it felt like despite being in love, Jack and Oliver should maybe not have ended up together. They're well suited, but the class thing is SO MUCH of a thing that it starts to feel weird that they find a way around it. BUT. In the end, I love it too much to really criticize it for wanting to make me happy. 10/10, go read it.

Warnings for graphic sex and some period-typical homophobia, violence, and allusions to violence against women and women being subjugated to their husbands because it's 1817 and, you know, fuck everything. But Lady Montbray eventually gets a nice girlfriend, so it all works out in the end.
