In honor of Juneteenth, we’re turning the volume up on Black joy, unapologetic pleasure, and soul-shaking yes energy with debut author Natasha Bishop—and babe, she did not come to play.
Her breakout novel Only for the Week isn’t just spicy, it’s a whole-ass reclamation. Set in lush, sun-drenched Tulum, it’s second-chance romance with wrapped hair, waist beads, and a man who’ll read to you, wreck you, and respect you after. 😮💨
