📚 Seven of Hearts by Maggie Gates

2025/2/23 Edited to

... Read moreOkay, so I just have to talk about Maggie Gates’s 'Seven of Hearts' because it’s seriously stuck in my head! If you’re like me and always on the hunt for a romance that’s a little bit different, you’re in for a treat. This book takes the classic 'sister's best friend' trope and flips it on its head with a unique twist that just makes it unforgettable. From the very beginning, you’re pulled into this whirlwind 'one night of no strings fun' scenario. We’ve all read stories like that, right? But what really sets 'Seven of Hearts' apart is this incredible plot device involving a voice note. Imagine: his sister's best friend, a moment of passion, and a crucial recording that was never meant to continue. It completely changes the dynamic, turning a simple hookup into something loaded with secret longing and undeniable connection. The idea that he finds out it never stopped recording, and then can’t stop listening to it because he can't stop thinking about her – it’s just chef's kiss for building emotional tension. This isn't just a fluffy romance; there’s a real undercurrent of yearning and a forbidden aspect that makes the '7 of hearts' story so compelling. As a #booktok fan, I’m always looking for those books that give you all the feels, and this one delivers. It explores what happens when a moment of consent for 'no strings fun' turns into something much deeper, all thanks to an accidental recording that holds their true feelings. You’ll find yourself rooting for the characters, wondering how they’ll navigate this secret, and hoping they find their way to a happily ever after. If you’re into contemporary romance with a dash of angst, sizzling chemistry, and a plot that keeps you guessing, then 'Seven of Hearts' should definitely be on your #romancerecommendations list. It's a fantastic read that truly uses its unique premise to explore love, desire, and the surprising ways people connect. Trust me, once you start, you won't be able to put down this '7 of heart' story until you've uncovered every secret and witnessed every heartfelt moment.

This book still lives in my brain at random times. Seven of Hearts by Maggie Gates. This is a standalone and is available on kindle unlimited. This has drama, sexiness, awkwardness, and really good family moments. The banter between the couple is top tier. #tbr #romancebooks #kindleunli

The image displays the cover of the book "SEVEN AFRICAN POWERS THE ORISHAS" by Nique Joiner Siedlak. The cover features a dark-skinned face against a fiery, textured background, held by a hand with painted nails.
This image shows an open page from the book, detailing "ELEGUA THE MESSENGER." The text describes Elegua as the first Orisha, a trickster, and the manager of crossroads, with sacred colors of red and black, and black and white.
The image shows an open page from the book discussing "Spells" in Yoruba practice. It explains Ebbos (cleansings) and Adimus (offerings) to Orishas, and includes a "Prayer to the Seven African Powers."

Another book that I like as it relates to spirituality ⭐️Overall rating: 7/10 Not too long of a book - A decent starting point to the Orishas Book from Amazon #spirituality #orishas
