I'll start off my book discussion with a look at one of my favorite authors: KJ Charles, who writes *smoking* awesome romances.

I'm utterly in love with her Green Man World books: The Secret Casebook of Simon Feximal, which very much feels like a series of connected short stories, has some utterly fascinating stories, including one about butterflies killing people. It's probably not for everyone, as there's a lot of very rough intimacy, but the characters and concepts are so great that I love rereading it.

The followup to The Casebook, Spectred Isle, throws a down on his luck archaeologist (Saul Lazenby) and headfirst into a world of magic and terror, a world where the physical War was the top layer of brutal arcane battles that almost destroyed the world.

I deliberately didn't mention the romance aspect. Romance (and yes, sex) is integral to the story, not an add-on or a salacious hook. I had zero instances of "oh come on, just talk to each other already!". But the romance/sexy bits are strong *because of* how they interact with the plot, not the other way around.

KJ Charles is a totally delightful author. I highly recommend anything she's written.

Now! In the replies, I will point to the *entirely different* 2 book set I have on sale at The Scribbling Lion. So if you don't want to see the "consider buying these other two titles", don't read the reply to this post. :)

I love book lists of 'under the radar'/romance novels that deserve more hype.
❤️
Even better, when these 'under the radar' lists don't include NYT bestsellers, popular trad published authors you see *everywhere*, and celeb book club picks. None of those books or authors are 'under the radar.'
