Following my heart, one book at a time...
<— OMG CRAZY BLURB JOLT ALERT!! This one sounds ALL SORTS of risqué! And best of all, the duet is now complete. 😀
Daffy: Omg I’m at chapter 6! So good so far!! 😱😱😱
Cheryl: Just started Filthy Vows- one of my fave authors. I am intrigued with this by the author- “Do you have any secret fantasies? Exploring that scenario is what led to my newest novel.” Exploring??? :>
Daffy: The first one was HOT!!!!
Junis: OMG it’s soooo HOT! 😈
Maryse: Relief is here!!! #2 is LIVE!! 😀
Noelene has a reader recommendation request!!! This particular trope seems to be one of my most popular lists requests (but each time, it gets even more defined). Today Noelene is hoping we can make her a list of exactly this:
Noelene: Hi Maryse !
I’m looking for a particular trope. I want an age gap romance BUT where the H knew the h when she was a child. (Like for eg Torn by Carian Cole) Do you have some recommendations pls ?
Maryse: I’ll start a list!! In the meantime, have you read All the Ugly and Wonderful Things: A Novel? Here’s my review.
Crossed Lines
<— That cover, title and blurb had my attention from the start (it looked SO promising and intriguing) and then a few in our crew jumped in and came back to me with raving reviews, and I’m so glad I jumped in too. 😀 This kind of story (and incredible writing!!!) is right up my forbiddeny alley and I one-clicked it SO hard!!!
Laura: I think you missed a newly released book by Lana Sky called Crossed Lines. Forbidden love/slow burn/ hate to love / age gap romance. It’s the first book I’ve read from the author and I finished it in one sitting. You’ve helped me so much with your blog, I really hope you like it.
So far… we’ve had specific requests for Age Gap romance (forbidden or otherwise), and then even more specifically, older women with younger men… and of course, older men with younger women. And that soon spurred the of course… romance books featuring older main characters altogether. We are ROCKING these lists.
And then I received this very detailed request that is even MORE narrowed down. So, let’s make another list, shall we? I’m sure there will be repeats on here from some of our other lists above, but this list is especially for those who are adamantly in the mood for ONLY this age group, in this “Age Gap” trope.
This post is inspired by an old comment I found from my book-twin Amy. And wow!!! I absolutely LOVE her idea. I LOVE books that do this to me. Make me feel so uncomfortable but enrapture me to the point of being unable to put it down long enough ’cause I’m so hooked. Uncomfortable or not, I am IN!!! They always end up being unforgettable, whether I loved them, hated them, or hated that I loved them. 😉
They may be dark reads, forbidden or risqué, situations we wouldn’t normally live or accept in our own lives, maybe something scary or simply something that takes us out of our element in a large enough way… maybe even enlightening us in the process.
