Love Flushed by Evie Mitchell 
I second everything I said in my review for Knot My Type! Love Flushed is an extremely well written Disability romance. There are many disabilities represented, and they are just part of who that person is. It is so refreshing!!!!!

Things I am here for:
Own voices Chronic Illness Representation 
Annie is dramatic, and she OWNS IT!
Lincoln knows what he wants and he GOES FOR IT!
Partners, in life and love
Second Chance Romance
Women helping women
Open communication and consent during all sexual activities
Dick jewelry 

Favorite quote
"But I love me. I love who I am, and who my disease has shaped me into. I'm resilient as fuck, Lincoln. I've survived my own body trying to kill me— do you have any idea how badass that is?”

This is for the #ReadDisabled2024 prompt Chronically Ill Main Character.

trigger warnings: crohn’s disease flare ups, sexism and misogyny, sexual content, emotionally abusive parents, car accident, alcoholism, depression

I liked this so much more than the first one and I think it’s because I had lower expectations for the smut. The story is perfectly cheesy and dorky and the narrative arc was oddly short but since this was second chance it made sense for things to move faster. I thoroughly enjoyed that we got a double epilogue though!

I really enjoyed this! I devoured it all in one day, literally a one sitting type of situation, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that the all access series continues on with this friend group. 1st it was Frankie now it is Annie next it’ll be either Mai or Flo and I’m pleasantly excited to see what else Evie Mitchell has for us. I like how she has lessons for able-bodied people within her story but there’s no beating over the head with anything and that these characters other than a little bit of able ism get to just live their life and do their thing and thrive with their businesses and their love lives and it’s just wonderful I love the diversity I love the inclusivity I love the representation and it’s fun and sexy and such a damn good time.
