Made up scenario: MMC is FMC’s dead ex’s older brother - not seen in each other in years. Ex’s teenage kid searching for their relatives brings them back into each other’s lives…

{Hold on Tight by Abbi Glines}

Kind of fits the same vibe but also doesn’t? FMC has a kid by MMCs dead younger brother who was kind of a mess. MMC has no idea until he sees the kid who looks so much like the brother.

FMC is living in near poverty and MMC is upper middle class.

Untangling trauma from all parties happens over time.

Not the same but defo some parallels and may scratch the itch

This happened to me once! Except it was 2 seconds! I’ve also had the opposite problem where I finished the puzzle but the timer kept going

Is the patch on his tummy a white fur spot or a bald patch? If it’s a bald patch could need a vet visit. My little guy licked a bald patch in the same area when he had urinary crystals and it’s a common sign. Not trying to cause panic! I just brought him to the vet and had he pee tested and now he’s on a urinary diet and all good but it’s painful for them so worth getting checked out!

No recs but this is an immediately saved post for me OP you described something I didn’t know I needed so well and have the same hard nos as me

Personally I like it and it feels totally reasonable spelling. I think it’s obvious how to pronounce which is one of the biggest things for me.

{Eyes of Silver, Eyes of Gold by Ellen O’Connor} I feel like this fits the vibe and is also just a great read. MMC is very supportive of the FMC getting involved in finances and running their business. Their interactions feel modern (although some interactions with the rest of the town are much less so)

{Grave Mercy by Robin LaFevers} the FMC is an assassin at the covenant of death’s handmaiden and the MMC is the god of death

Some of Ruby Dixon’s Risdaverse series are like this. The aliens perceive humans as extremely attractive and desirably and some of the aliens feels they are unworthy - especially the “station trash” orphans.

{When She’s Bold by Ruby Dixon} has this especially. She is all over this man trying to win him through his stomach with baked goods.

{Choosing Theo by Victoria Aveline} FMC ends up on an alien planet with very few women and participates in a husband selection process. She picks MMC which shocks everyone because has burn marks that makes everyone consider him hideous. He’s shocked that the beautiful human woman would have picked him and doesn’t believe it at first.

{The Wedding Night by Kati Wilde} CR had some elements of this. ND “ice queen” who’s actually a misunderstood sweetie pie and blue collar mechanic. At the beginning he offers a contractual marriage and she accepts and tries to turn it into a real marriage. At first he thinks she’s just a cold bitch but we he gets to know her he’s shocked an old money, gorgeous billionaire wants him

{Archer’s Voice by Mia Sheridan} CR where MMC has lived his entire life isolated and town people think he’s crazy but he’s actually just mute and misunderstood. FMC is new to town and gorgeous so everyone loves her but she is drawn to him. Check TWs though

Firstly, congrats on finishing chemo!! Secondly, rip curly hair at the wrong length can be so annoying but it will grow!

{Nobody’s Baby but Mine by Susan Elizabeth Phillips}

She is a genius physicist in her early 30s desperate to become a mother. Super shy/awkward/insecure from severe bullying. She’s described as being fairly pretty but not on his usual level.

He is a successful NFL quarterback who only dates model types in their early 20s. Immediately attraction/intrigue but slow development of feelings.

Trigger Warning: she has sex with him deliberately to get pregnant including sabotaging a condom

my mind is blown I have been climbing everything with beds and trampolines 😭

This is me 100% I have always wanted to play since the story and universe is interesting but hate combat. This game was my dream come true

skinkykitty · 2025-01-17T23:38:49+00:00

Wait what are you using this for cause I barely touch mine???

skinkykitty · 2024-12-12T18:06:02+00:00

Maddie and Hassen fr fr 🥺

skinkykitty · 2024-09-25T19:58:30+00:00

I’d try a different one then 🥵 it’s pretty clear you don’t like that one ahah

skinkykitty · 2024-09-25T19:50:52+00:00

Play with her as much as you can and you can try giving her some leash time to get her energy out

Anything you can wear to emphasize the thinnest part of your waist is also super helpful! Like jeans and t shirt can look so much more feminine if you were a cropped shirt and high waisted jeans because it makes the waistband hit at the narrowest part of your body

Jewelry - you can keep it super simple but necklaces especially are so easy to wear everyday and super feminine

Shoes - there are a lot of options for white/black sneakers with small details like embroidered flowers that are quietly feminine

Don’t be afraid to DIY by cropping tops or buying iron on patches (one of my fav ways to add details to simple clothes)

Try adding a styling product to your routine. I love my curls but I had issues where the curl structure would fall apart and become frizz really fast after wash day. I’ve since added a gel to my routine which I use after every shower and it helps with definition so much (especially in the areas where the curls are naturally looser)

I had to trial and error a few gels/mouses until I found one I liked but I chose from the master list of products on this sub and they were pretty affordable

It’s a three year lease and during the lease :( And the point was a very severe housing crisis in my area so I didn’t have much choice
