"Sexy and oh so satisfying." —Award-winning author Rebekah Weatherspoon

The buzzy, viral sensation Only For The Week, is the first book in Natasha Bishop's The Forever Falling series, featuring Black love, messy family dynamics, sexy banter, and sweet and spicy romance.

You are cordially invited to the wedding of Amerie Cross and Arnold Hightower.
A destination wedding in Tulum should be a breeze, but Dr. Janelle Cross—the sister of the bride and the ex-girlfriend of the groom—can't catch a break. Between her maid of honor duties, her sister's Bridezilla antics, and her family tiptoeing around her non-existent feelings for her ex, Janelle is desperate to let off some steam. So, when the best man, Rome, proposes they give into their undeniable chemistry, Janelle agrees, under one condition: their affair can only last a week.
What happens in Tulum doesn't always stay in Tulum . . .
For Rome Martin, Janelle has always been off limits. She's his best friends ex, and Rome is nothing if not loyal. But he's never been able to get her off his mind, and now he might finally have a chance to win her over.
As the wedding brings them together, every kiss, adventure, and stolen moment feels right. Janelle and Rome agreed to live in the moment, but are they willing to risk it all for forever?

      Starred review from November 1, 2024

      Janelle Cross isn't upset about her ex-boyfriend Arnold getting engaged to her sister Amerie, with whom he is a better match. What bothers her is how cold Amerie has grown during the engagement, even as most of the burden of wedding planning has fallen on Janelle, a busy doctor. Meanwhile, best man Rome Martin has always liked Janelle, but she believes he does not. Rome quickly clarifies his former standoffishness, however, and they revel in their mutual attraction. Since Janelle and Rome will be at a resort with the rest of the wedding party for the next two weeks, the pair agree to spend one of those weeks exploring their attraction. Rome wants to take care of Janelle, who he sees struggling to understand her sister's callous treatment. Janelle soon falls hard for Rome and treasures the time they spend together. They find in one another the unwavering support that is lacking in so many of their existing relationships. Bishop adroitly navigates difficult family dynamics while eschewing trite resolutions in a novel that highlights the importance of found family. VERDICT Originally self-published and now traditionally published with bonus content, Bishop's ("Lost & Found" series) scorching hot, smart, hilarious, and touching novel is highly recommended for all collections.--Nicole Williams
