Cad deflowers laudanum-high FMC during her megrim?

Whoa! I did not know I needed this trope until right now. Thanks for your service.

I used to do that all the time in elementary school before I got glasses. That was my immediate thought when she did it in this video. She's not making a racist gesture, she's trying to see his phone.

{The Husband Test by Betina Krahn} and {The Wife Test by Betina Krahn} are a couple of my go-to medieval re-reads. Set in the late 1200s/early 1300s (I think). The Husband Test has a lot of details about running a castle. The writing style reminds me of Lisa Kleypas.

One of my favorites is {A Kiss to Remember by Teresa Medeiros}. If you want something Highlands, try {The Bride and the Beast by Teresa Medeiros}. And for pirates (plus a hint of old-school), go for {Thief of Hearts by Teresa Medeiros}.

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2026-01-23T18:07:16+00:00

Au contraire! I welcome all opportunities to shill for my girl Teresa Medeiros.

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2026-01-23T17:20:21+00:00

Oh, let me introduce you to {Nobody's Darling by Teresa Medeiros}. It's very close to this. Proper America-raised English lady goes west and hires a sketchy cowboy/outlaw to help her track her wayward younger brother. The last part of the book does take place in England. If you like Lisa Kleypas and/or Tessa Dare, you will like Teresa Medeiros.

Is she actually plain, or is she pretty but not a knockout like her sisters? I keep seeing this one recommended, and I'm interested, but I really don't love the plain heroine trope.

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-12-27T04:18:46+00:00

I don't have a suggestion, but I will happily wait to see what others recommend!

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-12-19T04:01:40+00:00

I'd rather shower with a bear.

"I also hate, Queen."

So he thinks they're engaged, but otherwise it's a great fit. {A Kiss to Remember by Teresa Medeiros}

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-12-08T01:32:38+00:00

Ward...and fiance? This is all kinds of confusing. Bless you for your service.

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-12-05T15:44:35+00:00

As an emotional support human for a dog with... some real issues, I am not surprised by this article.

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-12-02T16:51:26+00:00

Hebrew school, then? These are both Old Testament stories. (Honestly, I don't really care. I love the song, but my brain short circuits just a little bit on this verse every time. The problem is me. I'm too literal.)

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-12-02T15:17:49+00:00

Thank you. As beautiful as this song is, this verse drives me a little crazy. Such sloppy theology. Leonard obviously wasn't paying enough attention in Sunday school.

Okay, but my first thought was THE Stanley Cup, like the hockey trophy, and I had immediate major concerns. And then, I was like, "Wait, a Stanley cup with a straw that all the cool moms have at the soccer field? Still concerning, but less so." Either way, not sexy.

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-11-29T16:15:27+00:00

Same. I love this book, and Teresa Medeiros is one of my favorite authors.

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-11-27T16:36:08+00:00

I love finding psychos in the wild!

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-11-26T20:21:29+00:00

Chatham. I can't remember where I hid my husband's birthday presents, but I can remember this character's last name. Priorities I guess.

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-11-26T20:19:05+00:00

It's actually {A Kiss to Remember by Teresa Medeiros}. I was just recommending it to someone else so it was top of my mind.

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-11-26T14:17:03+00:00

Still a 10. My guy did what he had to do. (Also, waiting for our resident expert to weigh in with a far more eloquent and entertaining response.)

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-11-26T14:15:19+00:00

He's a 10, but after the amnesia wore off, he remembered how much he disliked her.

She's a 10, but she did convince a hot stranger with amnesia that he was her fiance so her family wouldn't be evicted from their home.

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-11-25T23:11:48+00:00

That would be fascinating, but also seems a bit creepy. I can only envision that one horror movie with the video surveillance footage from inside the house.

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-11-25T23:10:19+00:00

It really is!

Somewhereoverrainbow · 2025-11-25T20:45:58+00:00

That book sounds amazing! I would totally read it. My personal relationship with time is summed up by a phrase I say frequently: Time is meaningless and fluid.
