Found this absolutely adorable song in French on Monday, and I am thrilled to report that not only do I understand quite a lot of it, but that also it's perfect vibes for my Tour de France romcom! Duolingo French coming into its own! open.spotify.com/track/10ZrEc...

Absolutely gassed to hear that morning coffee is a health food. In for 2025: justifying my galactic caffeine addiction with multiple cups to start my day, coffee walks with my husband, and frothy whole milk cappuccinos.

So much of my marriage is saying ‘Well, that’s not the way I’d have driven,’ in my head. Sometimes out loud. But only when I’m feeling spicy.

Did I actually get the line: ‘What the fuck is the Vuelta? Sounds like a Deadmau5 song.’ into my pro cycling romcom? Why yes, yes I did. And it made me laugh.

Now seems like a fine time to introduce myself, given the influx of new followers! I’m from the south coast of the UK, I work as an VA/ops manager to founders to pay the bills and I write contemporary romance because I love it. Here’s a thread of where you can find my work!
