I had 2 favorite quotes that I simply can not share until you read the book👀 Enjoy my third favorite coming from Link's POV😳

BUT the biggest news is that I added my FAVORITE microtrope. Where the FMC has been through physical trauma, and MMC offers to wash her.

My book isn't considered Christian fiction, but I am a Christian author, and the act of washing ones feet is the truest way to show your care and respect for them...washing their hair is just frickin romantic🥹

This is my favorite. To show intimacy and love in a non-intimate way. Simply heart melting infatuation for the person that is yours.
