fun & indulgent
This collection is so hot! I really appreciate that Gabriel Hargrave went out of his way to not just throw us into smutty scenes without context—in every story, you’ll get a sense of who these folks are and their history that led them to the climax of each story. (Sorry, couldn’t help the pun.) My favorite part was being pleasantly surprised by characters I loved in early stories recurring in later ones, and the poetry at the end really breaks down what turns of phrase bring on the heat. The stories feature a diverse cast woven seamlessly in with each one, proving we CAN have our cake and eat it too. You won’t want to miss this!
