Carly Heath’s standalone novels focus on young characters finding their way in unforgiving historical settings. Her debut, The Reckless Kind, is set in 1904 Norway and tells the story of three teenagers whose lives become entangled as they push back against the expectations of their small village.
The book stands out for its detailed period setting and its willingness to place queer romance at the center of a historical narrative. Readers who enjoy character-driven historical fiction with strong sense of place will find a lot to appreciate in Heath’s work.
