Of course, you can read ACOTAR and Fourth Wing (both good).

If you like historical romance with a spicy bend to them, Look at author Bertrice Small--her novel Skye O'Malley is top notch, but I love most of her books. The books are older, but amazing.

I am listening to Anne Bishop's Black Jewels Triligy right now... it is incredibly dark fantacy, its heavy but keeps me on the edge of my seat. Also is an older book.

Shifter romance, I like authors Aidy Award, Elizabeth Briggs, Molly Harper... they have some fun series (brain candy with very little thought).

Strait up romance: Penny Reid has a cute series that follows brothers around and all the books have "Beard" in the title... not a lot of spice, but def a slow burn. For a lot of spice, Amy Award had a "Cock" series that is pretty cute and Sadie Kincaid is great at the mafia romance books... super spicy.

I love Mary Balough First Comes Marriage, it is the first in a 4 book series and I love it!

Defnitely adding this series to my list. Thank you for sharing this.

I never thought I would like a documentary about sports so much and even less one made by ESPN. I'm talking about "The Last Dance". This series shows you the success story of the superstar Michale Jordan and it's extremely exquisite, I recommend it. Who has seen it?

Rough day in the office and in the mood for something that would toss me around and maybe hurt a little. Black peppercorn crusted bacon left on a smoker too long and covered in jam made from under-ripe red fruits. The 59% ABV is definitely present, and you can smell the peat smoke from across the room. The finish lasts for days. If you’re already into peated scotch but want to crank it up another level, the cask strength Laphroaigs can show you your limits. Hurts soooo good 😌
