@britnipuccio @FatedMates Ooh not all of them that’s a good idea to revisit!

[Leigh Mar 🐢 @LeighMar_]

@FatedMates I binge read kleypas nov/Dec, devoured IAD jan/Feb, I need another sprawling world of amazing stories that have that BINGEWORTHY quality and like… dozens of books. I need to find a new series to fall into/obsess about for months — ideas?? y’all have the best recs.

[Erin Luken UPDATES ONLY @esluken]

I can’t wait for everyone to meet these characters NEXT YEAR (🫣): the bi con artist, Lucia, the only daughter of a wealthy navy family chafing under their expectations, Oriana, and the secretive daughter of their island host, Calista!

This stunning art of them by @Alilyushka !
