Hello, Adi! I've been sick 🤢 much of this month (🤪EXCUSES!!!!!🤪) but -- OMG -- I finally got around to this book and let me tell you. This made me want to once and for all quit my job as a 21st century black American male, somehow move into this book and change my name to Abigail Chance.

This book was everything I love about Romance .😍😍😍

Thanks for the picks! Now, Maybe I can catch up and read some of your other treats!

Hi LaurLa! I managed 5 1/2 books this month from your recommendations, sadly most being audiobooks because my life is too hectic to sit down and enjoy a book book! Several more are moving into November though and I'm trying to finish the 6th book.
