Book Review: Quiver by Rachel Spangler

My angst loving friends, I have the book for you. Quiver is a second chance, celebrity, small town, sports and ice queen romance all rolled into one beautifully healing love story.

Kylie Manchester’s once blossoming acting career is waning. In an attempt to save a big audition she tells the director about her amazing skills as a mounted archer… too bad she isn’t one. But she does know one, a champion, only getting the ex-love of her life to agree to help her will be only slightly less painful than actually working with her everyday.

The tension between Kye and Fletcher flares like a wildfire from the start. Their borderline obsession with their work is both what broke them apart, and kept them moving forward for the last 12 years. Fletcher agrees to help Kylie out of a need to give her what she needs to leave as quickly as possible.

The very slow coming together is painful and beautiful, you will want to yell at them and cry for them more than once. I would consider both of the main characters ice queens to different degrees, and their well-earned walls are thick. Without their connection to each other both women suffered in their personal lives never truly able to move on, but unwilling to move backwards.

if you are a bisexual woman who used to identify as a lesbian...

i am so proud of you, and even more happy for you that you have discovered something new about yourself.

there is no shame in going from one label to another if you find the new one reflects you better, and you are not betraying anyone for doing so. changing labels does not make you any less worthy of love.

you are not a stereotype. you are human, a human who is constantly evolving and always on the journey of self discovery. ignore anyone who says otherwise. you owe them nothing. your sexuality is your own.

Finally drew my fave sexy Olympic medalists! ⛷🏂🏻🥇🥇

Edge of Glory (by @writerrachelspangler) was the first lesbian romance novel I ever read (on recommendation from @bossbeth), and how I realized that there are some explicit books out there that are right for me. 😊
