The Ornithologist's Field Guide to Love by India Holton

From the mastermind behind The Dangerous Damsels series, India Holton delivers another fantastical and whimsical story that's perfect to read with a cup of tea . . .

Rival ornithologists hunt through Europe for dangerous magical birds in this historical fantasy romance. If Indiana Jones featured manners, tea, and helicopter parasols – this would be it!

----
Two rival ornithologists.
Seeking one dangerous, beautiful bird.
Is the hunt of their lives also how they find the love of their lives?

Professor Beth Pickering is on the verge of finally capturing the rare Deathwhistler bird when Professor Devon Lockley swoops in, stealing both her bird and her imagination.

For his part, Devon has never been more smitten than when he first set eyes on Beth.

When a competition to become Birder of the Year by capturing an endangered caladrius bird is announced, Beth and Devon are forced to team up to have any chance of winning.

They're hunting the rarest of species. But will these rivals discover something even more endangered – true love . . .
Tropes:
1. Enemies-to-lovers
2. One bed / one horse
3. Badass feminist
4. Who hurt you?
