Confessions

Don't take our word for it. Take theirs.

My husband asked why I've been going to bed early. I said I'm tired. I am not tired. I am reading Velvet Ever After under the covers.

I read 'What the Shadows Know' at midnight and had to physically put my phone in another room so I wouldn't start the next one. I failed.

Finally, spicy stories that are actually well-written. I don't have to skip past bad prose to get to the good parts. It's ALL good parts.

The spice levels are genius. Level 1 when my mother-in-law is visiting. Level 3 when she leaves. Either way, I'm reading.

$8 a month? I spend more on wine I drink while reading these. The stories are the better investment.

Pricing

Less than a glass of wine. Better company.
