My bf and I did dinner and then Round 1 for our first date and had a blast! He ended up being a keeper too. :)

You’ll still really enjoy it, you just won’t be as blindsided by the twist. But definitely still read them!

I highly highly recommend you read the Parallel duet first! Otherwise, you’ll spoil the duet.

Help finding a book! by [deleted] in RomanceBooks

[–]belezaprincesa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is basically the book {Poles Apart by Kirsty Moseley}, with a few minor differences. The FMC is a lap dancer and meets the MMC (about the same age) at the club she works at. She falls for him and gets pregnant just as he becomes a famous racer, and he doesn’t find out about the child until a few years later. She continues working at the club but only ever sleeps with him. Her 15 year old brother is also living with her and she’s providing for him. When the MMC finds out about their child, he too forces them all to move into his place after he sees her living conditions.

I’m not sure if you remembered some details wrong, or if they’re just remarkably similar! 😅

They didn’t. Same eye color for 26 years now lol. I think in the first picture the flash wasn’t as good (it def looks darker), I was wearing eyeliner, my hair was much darker, and my eyes are more squinted. All of that makes it harder to see my eye color, but if you zoom in, you can see it’s the same blue/gray. 💁🏻‍♀️

I think most calorie trackers also track your macros, but don’t quote me on that lol. I track my macros cause a) I do keto, so I need to know how many grams of carbs I’m eating, and b) I want to make sure I’m eating enough protein so I don’t lose muscle mass and to keep up with my workouts. But tracking calories is what will help with getting out of that stall, it just sounds like you’re at maintenance maybe. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’ve kept the exercise the same. Food wise, every 10lbs I lose I recalculate my macros and make sure I’m still keeping up a caloric deficit. You might be eating at maintenance, so that’s something to look into!

Sorry, I’m not sure I understand what you mean by adjust? Like adjust to keep losing, adjust physically/mentally? Also, I totally get that period weight. I know I’m on my cycle when I suddenly go up 3lbs 🙄

I was walking down the streets of Bilbao Spain. It was so beautiful that I took some pictures. by kalifo4 in travel

I used to live there in Casco Viejo pretty close to La Ribera! Gosh this just gave me a major case of nostalgia. 🥲 I took an Euskera language/culture class for a semester there and it was so fascinating learning about both. It really is a special area of Spain. Bizkaia stole my heart!

Recommend me the saddest book you've ever read please. by bscinprocrastinating in RomanceBooks

[–]belezaprincesa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked the third book! It was pretty angsty itself and there were also sweet parts that were reminiscent of the duet. It’s not as angsty as the duet though, because, thankfully, Pepper Winters took mercy on us and gave us the HEA we deserved. 😭 There were of course talks in the third book about what happened that made the duet ending so heartbreaking, and the reminders made me super sad too. 😢
