This one was easy. Kate spends a lot of time having burgers and shakes at Millie's diner.

Rules of Ruin is part of the Grey Romance series, a collection of standalone novellas that straddle the line between the shadows. Not light, not cozy, but not pitch black, they burn deliciously, but won't leave a mark tomorrow.

I'm fully convinced the reason so many people are comfortable pirating is because they did grow up being threatened by the FBI coming after them for it.

I feel like there's a lot of grumpy people on Bluesky today. Probably be a lot happier if they read a good book. Just saying 🀷

I see you completely missed the point of the original post. I'm sorry. It seems like a good lesson for you.
August 1, 2025 at 10:03 PM
Sorry...what? Is there a huge influx of criminals with a special love for small town romance getting shamed for it? I'm not understanding the connection.

Remember darlings and darklings:

Don’t yuck another reader’s book tastes. You don’t have to read it or buy it. You don’t even have to vibe with it. You just have to not be disrespectful about different tastes 😘

Exactly. Leave the judgment and shaming in your head and let people enjoy things.
