Which fictional character has the best scent?? Elsie and Damien have a fun inside joke of coming up with the most ridiculous and random smells.

*The Con by Rachel Rosato*

Quote from The Con by Rachel Rosato: Breaking the silence, he whispers in my ear, "I've missed your sweet scent of blackberries and fig leaves." I snort. Loudly. I had almost forgotten one of our favorite inside jokes, poking fun at all the fantasy/romance novels I read that, for whatever reason, always include someone's scent being made up of two or three of the most random smells. Coming up with new combinations became our go-to greeting, to the sheer annoyance of our friends.

5 star review from Justin! So grateful for my readers! 🙏🏻

5 star review of The Con by Rachel Rosato: "The mystery of the novel kept me reading at an intense pace and her use of cliffhangers at the end of chapters was brilliant. The editing was also phenomenal in a debut novel. If you enjoyed nerd and geek pop culture, you'll appreciate the work she has put into getting things right and representing fandoms appropriately throughout the book." from Justin

This time last year I was getting my Beta Reader feedback for The Con. I had the best readers!! Can't believe this was a year ago!

#booksky

Beta Reader Feedback for The Con by Rachel Rosato: "It was so refreshing to read an actual, honest-to-god original concept like this after being hit over the head with the same old storylines for so long."

You know what you have to do (add this book to your TBR) but you don’t know if you have the strength to do it (you do!)
