Inclusion, Survival, and Rainbow Unicorns

Hidden and Not-So-Hidden Fun in Simply the Best

Karin Kallmaker 08/15/2021 Book News, Simply the Best 6 Comments

Random Trivial Things

  • Trivia – For the Record, Accountants are Sexy
    For the record, Karin can't paint or play an instrument (so writes about both), has trouble following a recipe (ergo the food porn), and has little aptitude for hard science (even though smart is the new sexy). She does have a marginal talent for double-entry bookkeeping. All of this explains why Car Pool and Above Temptation feature super sexy accountants who love music and food.

Featured Published Things

  • A glowing young black woman with natural hair and red lips looks over her shoulder through mottled light at the Grand Canal and skyline of St. Marcos Plaza in Venice.

Random Shiny Things

  • Unforgettable at Cliterati Blog
    It’s clear this is a relationship each of them is going to integrate into her real life… A fun, relaxing, sexy story.
  • My Lady Lipstick at The Lesbian Review
    Both characters are expertly drawn and easy to love. I appreciated that Kallmaker made one a wonderfully complex and relatable butch.
