I would like to add 1 more to Eva's great list:
Just for Show by Jae, it's a fake dating trope if you are into that

Seconding "Make You Mine This Christmas", it was very cute!

Pre order Amazon link

Just finished beta/ARC reading Stolen by Time by Lucinda Wicked, and I’m OBSESSED.

If you love Outlander but wish it was sapphic (and honestly, better), this one’s for you. Forbidden love, high-stakes drama, and the Scottish Highlands as the perfect backdrop—it’s everything you want in a time-bending romance.

It’s up for pre-order on Amazon now. Go grab it—you’re not gonna want to miss this one.

I just finished My Best Friend’s Honeymoon by Meryl Wilsner and can’t believe it’s not rated higher (I think the average was 3.something but I gave it 5 stars). Unless other people don’t like the spice level maybe?? 🤔 Anyway, one of the main characters is a delicious thicc enby.

I’d add We got the beat by Jenna Miller, I loved it. The author also has Out of character but I haven’t read it
