Ready for some new releases that are spicier than your PSL?
It's officially fall! And thank Gods because I am seriously so ready for an excuse to stay inside, drink tea, and do nothing but read for the next six months. (Okay, and obviously we all still have to go to work, take care of our kids blah blah blah, but come on! Let's fantasize for a moment!)
These new adult new releases are the perfect reads to cozy up with this season. Let's dive in and get to know them.
Savage (September 18th)
"I'd rather be a savage with you than be civilized alone."
This is a standalone villain's origin story for the New Adult dystopian series Thalassic. It's a high-stakes spicy adventure featuring a romance between a morally gray shipwrecked pirate and a rich man's daughter with a mysterious past. If you like snarky banter, fast-paced action, diversity rep, and plot twists, this one is for you.

Trigger warning: people cheat on each other in this book. There is also violence, some of it against whales.
