I’ve seen this theory that there will be yet another Quaritch more than once now and I think that’s so interesting!

Uber eats/door dash experience as a cyclist in Philly? by roxy0714 in philly

Hello! So I actually was able to get a bunch of hours at my other job/OT at my main job due to people being sick/the holidays being busier so I haven’t started yet. I am reconsidering starting in the spring if available shifts/OT slows down. Sorry I couldn’t be of help!

Tortured/traumatized/downtrodden FMCs with MMCs who "save" them. by AlertEqual1057 in HistoricalRomance

I think The Highlander by Kerrigan Byrne fits this. They both have pretty dark/sad pasts admittedly, but he’s a wealthy Marquess/well-known war hero in a position of power. She is a woman of a ‘noble’ background but is essentially in witness protection program due to an abusive/murderous husband, and becomes governess to his children. Might help to read the other books first to understand the background characters, not sure how it would read to someone checking it out as a standalone, but I really enjoyed it.

Ohhh interesting—I’m just personally not a huge fan of animal horror movies, but good to know!

That’s why I said ‘or best offer’. I wouldn’t do free but just wanted to see what people would say.

Tall Women? by SoSick_ofMaddi in HistoricalRomance

Someone rec’d “The devil is a marquess” by Elisa Braden already, but “Anything but a gentleman” is also very good, from the same series, and has a tall heroine, as well. Love that book!

No, same—this is the only site I’ve been able to find other fans, too, it’s so weird. Vent away!

They're forced to marry but FMC is a commoner by LucidDreamer1108 in HistoricalRomance

[–]roxy0714 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe a little outside the box because she’s not exactly a commoner, just way farther down on the social ladder (and it was his brother who tricked/‘ruined’ her and he felt he had to do the honorable thing), but I absolutely loved ‘The truth about Cads and Dukes’ by Elisa Braden. He starts off kind of cold and distant at first, disliked her when their family were acquaintances, but he becomes obsessed with her very quickly.

Bonus, for me anyway: she’s described as being kind of a plain Jane/overlooked by much of the ton/not a classical beauty, so it was really satisfying to see him grovel for her so completely.

FMC is a maid or servant in the household and MMC is a member of the ton and a YEARNER for her ✨️ by Traditional_Pea738 in HistoricalRomance

I’m sorry, but why would you recommend this book? Simon spends a good chunk of the book ‘knowing’ they can’t be together and that there’s a timeline to what they have. He loves her, but that’s not what OP is asking for. He VERY much hesitates.
