This novel made me feel kinda shy🥵🥵

OMG! Had you guys ever seen a robot that could not only do the laundry, cook meals and handle the housework, but also provide Special Services at Night?🥵

The character setup in this novel is really unique. The female lead was a chief AI female engineer. She accidentally walked in on her boyfriend having an affair with a robot in the office! She resolutely decided to break up with him.🤯

On her way back, she picked up a defective robot. Unexpectedly, this robot could offer special services.🫢

He knelt down and asked the female lead, "Do you need any services?"

The female lead, who had originally had no particular thoughts about him, was actually kept awake at night because of him...🫣

Were there any other novels of this type recommended? I really loved it.🤭

In the world of contemporary romance, novels featuring unconventional relationships, especially between humans and robots, are gaining traction. This story dives deep into intriguing themes such as loneliness and the quest for connection in a tech-dominated world. With the protagonist's unique profession as a chief AI engineer, readers gain insights into the innovations in robotics and artificial intelligence while indulging in a passionate yet humorous narrative. The accidental discovery of a robot capable of 'special services' opens avenues for exploring how technology can both isolate and connect us. As the narrative unfolds, the complex struggles of the characters—especially the female lead, who grapples with betrayal and emotional fallout—serve to resonate with many who face similar dilemmas in real life. Books like these evoke curiosity about human emotions and technology's role in modern relationships. Novels such as 'The Wife Between Us' and 'The Kiss Quotient' offer additional perspectives on love amidst unexpected circumstances. Fans of this genre also appreciate works that challenge traditional views on romance, highlighting the depth of emotional experiences beyond human interactions. Recommendations for further reading in similar themes would include works that combine humor and steamy romance, making the readers ponder the possibilities of love beyond the conventional.

How to Write a Book and Avoid Burnout

I suffered my first major burnout just under a year ago because of writing. I was under a lot of pressure from friends, family… my husband. So I’d set goals that were way too big:“write a chapter,” “write 2,000 words,” “write 10,000 words,” “make it GOOD.” I did this. Every day. For months. I hit
