A million kisses in your lifetime by Monica Murphy.

This has been such a wonderful read.

As I was reading the book, someone on Bookstagram said that Crew Lancaster behaved like a mafia don when he was just a highschooler, and I immediately narrowed my eyes, began reading his scenes with extra focus, paid him more attention than I did to Wren. But nop. I can honestly say that no doesn't do that. His character development has been crazy guys, cuz the way he went from i don't give a sh!t attitude to I'll do anything for my girl servitude? Grrrrl I am...floored.

Wren's character was perfect too cuz like Crew said she was a smart one. Always was. she just needed someone to unclip the wings her dad had stapled. And Crew did just that. She was a fresh breath of air. Innocent but bold, sexy but shy, hot but pure.

And the plot? 🤌🏻✨😘

looking at the cover one might think this was gonna be a dark romance, maybe it was, but personally, it was so so sweet. Yes there were some terrible moments in there, especially for Wren but the way Crew or her mom towards the end tries to protect her from it or salvage it for her was just so *chef's kiss*

"Dared to Serve a Limo Full of Strangers" by Capri Adair

Short story now available on Amazon!

A limo full of strange men, a dare from a friend, a frenzy of hands, tongues, and heat... Nicole is about to be taken for the ride of her life. Nicole deserves this after what she put Amber through at the bar. And more than that, she wants to do it. When the limo full of strange men pulls up to the curb, Nicole knows exactly what they're looking to do with her--- and to her. But once inside, she is shocked to find that the men barely look at her. Only one even bothers to speak to her, and then only in soft whispers. Her excitement quickly turns to confusion and frustration as her needs go unfulfilled. It's as if she is no different than a piece of furniture, a fixture of the limo, a complimentary service. Unless that's the game, she realizes: to make herself impossible to ignore. To become irresistible, insatiable. To make them realize just how much they need her. Nicole has never backed down from a challenge before. She's going to win their attention, and their pleasure, by any means necessary.

This book y’all… I didn’t want it to end!

Friendship was witnessing another’s slow drip of miseries, and long bouts of boredom, and occasional triumphs. It was feeling honored by the privilege of getting to be present for another person’s most dismal moments, and knowing that you could be dismal around him in return.

If he can't suck the marrow out of life with me, is he really a 10?

I find my happiness in old books and rare wines.

Love is buying a book, annotating it and gift it to the one we love the most
