Generally speaking, I find people tend to fall into two camps about spring. Either they feel it’s the time for new blooms and burgeoning life, raindrops glistening in spider webs and chicks chirping from nests, or that it’s some new kind of hell, where pollen runs amok and eyes water and noses run, made even more complicated this year with the daily morning routine of ‘Is this just my allergies or do I have coronavirus?’
I don’t mind which side you fall on, because I think we can both agree on one thing. Spring is the perfect time for fresh starts, new love, and most definitely the perfect time for a fling. Here are 10 romances under $5 to inspire your next spring fling!
Her Knight in Shining Armour by Robyn Rychards
Spring is all about fresh starts, and Paisley certainly has that covered. With a new name, and everything she owns in her car, she certainly doesn’t need a knight in shining armour to help her escape her abusive ex … or maybe she does.
