tropes that describe me: second chance romance, firefighter romance (hubby is the firefighter), Kindhearted Cat Lover, last guy wins

tropes that describe my books: why choose, plucky female lead, survival (desert island or an academy, pick your poison), Normie Dates Celebrity, Now-or-Never Kiss
Do you cast your books? Do you have ideas for who would play them in a movie? If you do— do you use all modern actors, or pick and choose from different periods? #booksky 📚💙 #writerscommunity

B&N has dropped their Best Books of 2025 list with 2.5 months left in the year so here's your reminder that "best" is arbitrary, time is a construct, and there are still a ton of good books coming out that shouldn't be ignored just because the credits are rolling early
