He Bought Me a Spicy Book… Now We’re Reading It Together 😳📖 (Patreon)

Over the weekend, Kyle did something amazing and surprised me with the perfect gift! I love gifts—especially when they’re functional, beautiful, thick, square, and full of ink. On his way to drive our friend Rogier back to the airport, Kyle found exactly that while waiting on the ferry: a beautiful purse with something special hidden inside.

Not only is the purse gorgeous, but it’s also cruelty-free and reversible—a much-needed replacement for my old purse, which has been slowly falling apart for ages (though I still somehow manage to use it). No more fighting with broken zippers!

But the best part was hidden inside the smaller bag tucked within the larger one: a limited-edition paperback with sprayed edges by an author I had mentioned to him before.

Little did he know, this author is known as the queen of dark romance, and the book he was about to buy may very well lead him down a path he’ll need a lantern to follow.

The book in question is Blood and Roses by the same author who wrote Quicksilver, a book I still have waiting on my Kindle to be devoured.

But back to Blood and Roses—now I have a beautiful new dual-bag purse and a spicy new book to go with it!

And honestly? The best part is that Kyle and I have decided to read it together. Since the book is dual POV, Kyle will be reading the male perspective, while I will take the female POV. I genuinely cannot wait.

I don’t think Kyle fully understands the level of emotional damage and morally questionable men he just signed himself up for.

So I have a question for you all. Have you ever convinced your partner to read a romance book with you?
