Spicy Story for a Heatwave Rec
Obsessed with Pedro Pascal’s Vogue photo shoot? How about a spicy short story in which one of the MMCs is Pedro Pascal-coded. The other one? Oscar Isaac-coded…
If you’re looking to squeeze some reading in between everything else, I recommend an under-90 minute read such as Elle Diaz’s short story “And They Were Roommates.”
In it, Helena is cooped up in her Louisville, Kentucky apartment with her roommates, Damien and Javi, during a heat wave. The sizzle, however, doesn’t come from weather, but when the roommates realize there might be something more to their relationship than equitably dividing household chores.
I read it while sipping a strong mint julep, which helped me immerse deep into the Kentucky atmosphere. “And They Were Roommates” is perfect for fans of MMF romance with low conflict.Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
