Your mood-reading prescription has been filled 💊📚

Hi !
Hey, how’s it going?
This week I had the dubious honor of being summoned for jury duty. I was not selected for a jury, but I spent a whole day in a courthouse waiting room with a bunch of other disgruntled prospective jurors, so it was great people-watching (and kindle-reading) time.
Out of respect for the setting, I read a closed-door romance while I was sitting there for seven hours. Are you shocked? (I am, a little!)
The funny thing is, I’ve been reading (and enjoying) quite a few no-spice romances lately, alternating them with complete filth. I’ve been reading dark post-apoc and fluffy monsters, kinky contemp and prim historicals. I’m not sure why my mood reading is taking me to these extremes, but I’m along for the ride. It’s keeping my dopamine levels high, and I really need that at the moment.
I hope you are keeping your spirits up, too. If you need a mood-reading book rec, you know who to message or email. I can usually provide some kind of unhinged antidote for what ails you. 🥰
BOOK NEWS
My week was made when I got this adorable mini review on Instagram for There’s Something About Dragons from @the_kindle_girlie (go follow her!). It was heartwarming to hear that it made a reader happy.
Give my smutty little romcom a read if your mood prescription is a dose of laughter and escapism (and maybe two dicks and a little late-‘90s nostalgia). It's free to borrow in Kindle Unlimited!
NEW FROM OTHER AUTHORS
One of my fave authors, Lyonne Riley, has a new dark orc romance out today. I read it and loved it. It’s dark, gritty, tender, and totally addictive. You can grab it on Amazon (or any other major platform)… or buy directly from the author!
About The Orc's Rage...
Cedar is not just a peasant, but a peasant’s servant, sold by her parents in exchange for a cow. When orcs arrive in her village, she is not heartbroken to see them murder her vicious master. But when she’s caught fleeing, the leader of the orcs, a foul and scarred beast, decides to take her as his own.
Lord Kargorr’s only mission is to destroy humankind. Since the ice melted and the grrosek returned to this plane, he is intent on reclaiming his kin’s land. Taking a human concubine is the beginning of his plan to sow an army of half-orcs—but he doesn’t expect how much this one human would challenge him. Soon, she might become more than just a concubine.
But will Cedar ever truly submit, even when she’s carrying his orcling? Or will Lord Kargorr be the one to bow down when he realizes who she truly is to him?
This is a monster romance that features a kidnapped, captive human heroine, a villainous orc hero who wants to destroy humankind, and their complicated, wickedly steamy love story. You can expect domination, a stubborn heroine, pregnancy, breeding, and bloody declarations of love. Guaranteed HEA.
Thanks for reading until the end. Have a great weekend!
Love,
Sara
