MamaBee (Durham)

Seeking a book club

I’m a new mammy to a beautiful little girl. I’m 23 (almost 24) and love new adult fantasy romance books - but I’m open to anything! During and after pregnancy I have lost who I am as a person, and I’m hoping that by finding a community of people with similar passions to me I can start to find myself again.

MamaBee recommends:

A Touch of Darkness by Scarlett St Clair
A Touch of Darkness
by Scarlett St Clair | Learn more and buy
It’s a retelling of Hades and Persephone. It has a modern touch and is filled with self discovery, romance, magic and just enough of Persephone being a badass.
