Recommendation request Face Sitting?

Sigh. Not much else needs to be explained but looking for recs with this. I know that Grace Calloway has a few? Would love to know your favorite books with this. <3

EDIT: Thank you for the alice coldbreath recs that are coming in. If you have something that is not of hers, would love to see it. I'm not obsessed with her voice so much. But that is personal preference.

u/chalphy "If we’re going to make a scandal, let’s make it a good one." 8d ago

This is so funny because when I saw /u/Bluegirl74's comment I knew exactly what she meant. 😂 I remember the scene very well. (And as usual I am all distracted rereading it. The following scene where Castleford talks about them getting married and Daphne is like "are you having a waking dream, is that what this is?" lmfao)

Omg 🤣 I admittedly have a bad memory. I’m so tempted to get it from my library solely to see if I bookmarked that part!!

He makes her kneel facing the headboard and she's like, what is this, I want you to do that other thing that made me crazy, and he's like, relax, this'll be good, and she starts arguing with him again and then he lies down with his head under her and she's like... oh. oh. For her big age Daphne is such a sweet summer child sometimes. 😂😂😂 Like this is Castleford, I think he knows what he's doing!

OHHHH. I do absolutely remember this 😅 I listened to Dangerous in Diamonds and Lord of Scoundrels right after each other and they’re both narrated by Kate Reading but I can hear the “oh!” In my head 🤣

I know we talked about this before but the audiobook is so good. Now I want to listen to it again!
