When Ty asks her to join him on his next assignment, though, his reputation for keeping women at his beck and call makes Aiyla hesitate to abandon the life she has built, and they part.

Except Lainey is keeping a few things back too, and between his lie and her secrets, a second chance is no guarantee — it's something they'll have to fight for.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kvna47s9rx6pch8apap89x0z.jpg?v=67ac6f11ba","LaHCZr%Nx]t74mxu-;j[~Ut6%Nj[",2019,282,[315],{"id":316,"slug":317,"name":318},"01kpg3fecgz9bsgkxt1srg8dns","helena-hunting-tqd2","Helena Hunting",[320,321,322,323],{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":20},{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":20},{"id":125,"name":126,"slug":127,"is_fiction":20},{"id":324,"name":325,"slug":326,"is_fiction":20},206,"Sports Romance","sports-romance",[328],{"id":329,"slug":330,"name":331,"position":332,"is_main_entry":20,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kvna47svaes7aaq70173c5mc","all-in-bsxj","All In","1.00",{"pace":74,"complexity":7,"audience":77,"mood":334,"themes":335,"setting_period":7,"summary":337,"content_warnings":7},[139,140,142,79],[84,336],"secret-identity","Chicago's NHL captain Rook Bowman wants three anonymous weeks off the ice — so when Lainey falls into his lap on a flight to Alaska, he lets her believe he's an alpaca farmer named RJ.

In 2010s London, sixteen-year-old Ada Kazantzakis is grieving her mother and estranged from a Cypriot heritage she has never been allowed to know. In 1970s Cyprus, her parents-to-be, Kostas and Defne — he Greek Christian, she Turkish Muslim — fall in love in secret, meeting at a tavern called The Happy Fig as their island slides toward war and partition.\n\nWoven through both timelines is a third, unexpected narrator: a fig tree, carried as a cutting from Cyprus to a London garden, which watches over the family and remembers everything the humans cannot bear to say. Through its eyes, Shafak braids together buried history, ecological wonder, and the long aftershocks of a divided homeland.\n\nTender and elegiac, The Island of Missing Trees is a novel about inherited silence and inherited love — about how the traumas of one generation take root in the next, and about the fragile work of belonging to a place, a family, and a past. A Reese's Book Club pick and Costa Award finalist, it is among Shafak's most beloved books.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kkfgyktpap0q3r4jmhg8as6h.jpg","L2DIbP~901Rto$-P]wRh0IJE0hRn",2021,"4.33",3,407,[637,641],{"id":638,"slug":639,"name":640},"01kjwhxy0ck6r6rtepje2aps35","elif-safak-6ayf","Elif Şafak",{"id":642,"slug":643,"name":644},"01kkfgyktfs5qsanvmc5gdpmvd","dominique-goy-blanquet-vmoy","Dominique Goy-Blanquet",[646,647,648,649,653],{"id":76,"name":233,"slug":234,"is_fiction":20},{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":20},{"id":354,"name":355,"slug":356,"is_fiction":20},{"id":650,"name":651,"slug":652,"is_fiction":20},8,"Historical Fiction","historical-fiction",{"id":229,"name":230,"slug":231,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":74,"complexity":7,"audience":77,"mood":656,"themes":657,"setting_period":7,"summary":629,"content_warnings":7},[176,80,301,81,79],[401,303,304],{"id":182,"slug":183,"title":184,"description":185,"primary_cover_url":186,"cover_blurhash":187,"first_publish_year":188,"community_rating_avg":135,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":189,"authors":659,"genres":661,"series":666,"enrichment":668},[660],{"id":192,"slug":193,"name":194},[662,663,664,665],{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":20},{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":20},{"id":125,"name":126,"slug":127,"is_fiction":20},{"id":200,"name":201,"slug":202,"is_fiction":20},[667],{"id":205,"slug":206,"name":207,"position":135,"is_main_entry":20,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},{"pace":137,"complexity":7,"audience":77,"mood":669,"themes":670,"setting_period":7,"summary":212,"content_warnings":7},[142,140,210,79,141],[],{"id":672,"slug":673,"title":674,"description":675,"primary_cover_url":676,"cover_blurhash":677,"first_publish_year":371,"community_rating_avg":152,"community_rating_count":76,"page_count":678,"authors":679,"genres":684,"series":691,"enrichment":696},"01kvnb461tt6sp1yc6dsvnhwvd","chasing-cassandra-dgdu","Chasing Cassandra","Railway magnate Tom Severin is wealthy and powerful enough to satisfy any desire the moment it arises — and from his first glimpse of Lady Cassandra Ravenel, he's determined to have her.

Sharp and funny as often as it is devastating, it became one of the defining young-adult novels of its decade.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjq81jyys7q17nxxanmnynmf.jpg","LME;QIS85tba00WB%Mof1Bxn$eRp","4.13",157,[874],{"id":875,"slug":876,"name":877},"01kjq81jxz2vbbw46jxtq1n6e2","john-green-ko8x","John Green",[879,880,881,882,883,887],{"id":165,"name":166,"slug":167,"is_fiction":20},{"id":846,"name":847,"slug":848,"is_fiction":20},{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":20},{"id":161,"name":162,"slug":163,"is_fiction":20},{"id":884,"name":885,"slug":886,"is_fiction":20},63,"YA Contemporary","ya-contemporary",{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":74,"complexity":7,"audience":173,"mood":890,"themes":891,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[80,139],[],{"id":893,"slug":894,"title":895,"description":896,"primary_cover_url":897,"cover_blurhash":898,"first_publish_year":548,"community_rating_avg":899,"community_rating_count":786,"page_count":900,"authors":901,"genres":906,"series":924,"enrichment":925},"01kjq80kf9938jetgptddrgx9j","verity-oqqr","Verity","Struggling author Lowen Ashby accepts an assignment: travel to the home of bestselling thriller writer Verity Crawford, incapacitated after an accident, and ghostwrite the remaining books in Verity's series.

Verity's husband Jeremy is in the house, grieving his children. As Lowen and Jeremy grow closer, she must decide what to do with what she has read — and whether the woman in the wheelchair is as helpless as she appears.

His neighbor is Jay Gatsby, a self-made millionaire famous for the lavish parties he throws every weekend, though almost no one knows where his fortune came from or what he truly wants.\n\nThrough Nick, we learn that Gatsby's glittering displays are all in service of a single obsession: Daisy Buchanan, the woman he loved before the war and who is now married to the wealthy, brutish Tom Buchanan. As Nick is drawn into the tangled lives of the East Egg and West Egg elite, the distance between old money and new, between illusion and reality, becomes impossible to bridge.\n\nF. Scott Fitzgerald's 1925 novel is a compact, lyrical portrait of the Jazz Age and a piercing critique of the American Dream. Its symbols — the green light across the bay, the fading eyes of Doctor T. J. Eckleburg, the valley of ashes — have become part of the language, and its story of longing, class, and self-invention remains one of the most enduring in American literature.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz6hf6gv7fy0wsfvyj48kyt.jpg","LEI4;ktT?dMb0DNFR%%ND-RMNMOb",1925,"4.07",[939],{"id":940,"slug":941,"name":942},"01kjq7ncwv2mv5skbjcyd77dvs","f-scott-fitzgerald-mpl7","F.

So when she needs to convince her best friend that her own love life is thriving, she panics and kisses the first man she sees — who happens to be Adam Carlsen, a young, brilliant, notoriously unapproachable professor.\n\nTo Olive's surprise, Adam agrees to keep up the fake-dating charade; he has reasons of his own for wanting the department to believe he's settling down. What begins as a tidy arrangement grows complicated as conference travel, lab politics, and Adam's unexpected steadiness start to blur the line between performance and feeling.\n\nAli Hazelwood's debut is a warm, funny STEM rom-com about a heroine who trusts her hypotheses more than her heart, and the grumpy academic who makes her want to revise them.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz6rw4ba9ygc3pb0f3vam5a.jpg","LVFQF2}@JBIq0f9as,%2k?o~RPRP","4.03",395,[966],{"id":120,"slug":121,"name":122},[968,969,970],{"id":125,"name":126,"slug":127,"is_fiction":20},{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":20},{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":20},[972],{"id":973,"slug":974,"name":959,"position":332,"is_main_entry":20,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kkd35sc8f9evpt2f7t5cevqg","the-love-hypothesis-t2ry",{"pace":74,"complexity":7,"audience":77,"mood":976,"themes":977,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[139,79,141],[978,699],"fake-dating",[980],{"id":981,"slug":982,"title":983,"user":984,"work_id":4,"is_draft":19,"verified_reader":20,"featured":19,"body":991,"overall_rating":35,"depth":7,"momentum":7,"atmosphere":7,"craft":7,"impact":7,"spice":7,"spoiler_level":992,"locale":7,"feed_item_key":993,"like_count":17,"comment_count":17,"top_likers":994,"viewer_can_reply":19,"created_at":995,"updated_at":995},"01kxq0h6cdq8jg8nq5m5878846","review-of-thrill-of-love-by-nadene","Review of \"Thrill of Love\" by nadene",{"id":985,"name":986,"username":987,"avatar_url":988,"is_system":19,"published_reviews_count":989,"books_read_count":990},692,"Nadene","nadene","https:\u002F\u002Flh3.googleusercontent.com\u002Fa\u002FACg8ocJagtEG0_WBr9w_-tRnbZi93QoXf9OelJQx_77YX1doLsOHefbv=s96-c",1825,1837,"Fate as defined by the Oxford dictionary is the development of events outside of a person’s control. Do you believe in fate or do you believe we create our own destiny?\n\nPersonally, I believe some events in our lives are pre-destined, and some are created by the choices we make. However, there are persons who believe every event in their lives are pre-destined and those who believe we create our own destiny. Ty Braden was one such person.\n\nWhat the story is about.\nTy Braden and Aiyla Bell met and fell in love in Saint-Luc after spending five days and four nights together. Ty wanting to continue his newfound feelings invited Aiyla to accompany on his next assignment. However, daunted by his reputation of being a player she refused his request, stating that if they were meant to be together, then fate will re-unite them. They agreed not to exchange contact information, not to track each other down and leave their future in the hands of fate.\nMonths later as fate would have it, they were re-united and old feelings re-ignited. However, when Aiyla received devastating life changing news, their love faced the greatest test.\n\nThe Story\nThrill of Love tells the story of a couple whose love was tested beyond measure. Not only was it sweet and sensual it was heartfelt and sincere. It is a beautifully written story, which reminded me of the strength of true love and the importance of family. Although it predictable, it still had the power to tug on my heartstrings.\n\nCharacters\nAiyla is a ski instructor and photographer. She is competitive and dislikes depending on others. She is strong, self-reliant, and resourceful. I admired her courage in the face of adversity.\nTy is adventurous, determined, caring, honest and patient. He was a player, but after spending time with Aiyla no other woman held his interest.\n\nAs a couple, they were quite inspiring. On their own, they were strong, but together they made a formidable team. I loved them as individuals and as a couple. I loved how they brought out the best in each other. Being with Ty made Aiyla recognise that relying on those you love was not a sign of weakness and she helped him to see the beauty of falling love.\n\nThe Romance\nI never imagined I could be jealous of a book couple but Ty and Aiyla’s relationship was one to envy. I must admit I had a hard time with them falling in love so quickly, but watching their post reunion interaction convinced me that what they shared was genuine.\n\nSupporting Characters\nIt was great catching up with characters from the previous books. The theme of family and friendships for which Ms. Foster is known for was the centre of the story. I loved how Ty’s family and friends rallied around him and Aiyla during the difficult times. The scenes depicted during these moments were heart-warming\n\nConclusion\u002FRecommendation\nThrill of Love delivered a heart-warming and tear jerking read. Although is the sixth book in the Bradens at Peaceful Harbor series it can be read as a stand-alone. However, if you are like me you will want to grab the other books in the series.","none","rv-01kxq0h6cdq8jg8nq5m5878846",[],"2026-07-17T03:04:45.000000Z"]
