Thought provoking. I read the book Want by Gillian Anderson which gave me the space to reflect about how I view my sexuality while exploring my own reasons as to why and how I would or would not do this or that. We need pieces like this to know ourselves, to sort through our desires. thank you for sharing this piece with us.

I'll have to look into that book. Ever since I've discovered dark romance literature, I've read more books in two weeks than I have in two years. Very liberating! It feels like I can finally relate to something. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. <3

As a writer, The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty: A Novel has a preface by Anne Rice about her thought process in writing the series you might find interesting, all the best.

Someone’s Adeline. Someone’s little mouse.

…the kind of love doesn’t really announce itself… It just gets closer.Quieter. Until one day you look up and realize you’ve already been known for a while. Certainty of proof, ya?

Honestly, the only romance series I’ve delved into were the Buttons Series by Penelope Sky. I’m intrigued to read the one you’ve mentioned, tho…thank you in advance and for your post. 🥀
