"Sure, Yelena’d had a tiny crush from afar at first, but once she’d gotten to know Embry, it had just become grudging acceptance that someone Exactly Her Type was also The Most Infuriating Woman on the Planet." RELENTLESSLY HERS by Ivy L. James: ebook, paperback, and free on KU! #lesfic

From "Relentlessly Hers": ""Sure, Yelena’d had a tiny crush from afar at first, but once she’d gotten to know Embry, it had just become grudging acceptance that someone Exactly Her Type was also The Most Infuriating Woman on the Planet." The last part of the text is highlighted in pink, and the paper is set over a picture of a tennis racket and a wire container full of tennis balls.

Two women cuddling intimately on a bed, one resting her head on the other’s chest, overlaid with torn-paper quote strips reading "In fact, I dislike you so much I want to..." Embry bit her lower lip, still focused on Yelena’s mouth. "...mark you up until no one else dares to touch you." The book title "Relentlessly Hers" sits below the quote.

so I got my hair chopped off in May, and then in a July trim it ended up in like a shag/wolf cut thing, which is all right but it turns out I miss the really short look. so my next haircut will be "Short Hair Rebecca Sugar" hair if I can feel a SINGLE HAIR on my neck afterward I will scream
