19 - Illusions of Grandeur by Kathryn Ann Kingsley What Did We Just Read?!

    • Books

Mansions, Magicians, and Ghosts! Oh my! Our inaugural Spooky Season series is on a roll! All treats no tricks! This week we read Illusions of Grandeur by Kathryn Ann Kingsley, part one in The Impossible Julian Strand series. This book has all the things we want in a ghost story AND all the things we love about romances too hot to handle.
 
Trigger Warning: this book does feature a little dubious consent. Kathryn Ann Kingsley classes this more as a villain romance so both the male leads are pretty pushy in ways that wouldn't be hot if the male leads weren't tall, dark, handsome, and in a series we know ends in an HEA. It works for us, but it's something to note.
 
What Did We Just Suggest?!
Maya: She found a really delicious meal replacement smoothie recipe that has spinach, mango, banana, and avocado. Filling and not overly sweet!
Justin: Enhance your sleep with a personal fan you can aim directly at yourself. Also, sleep with less clothes. Get all comfy and cozy in your sheets!
