I don‘t know the song, and the video is … odd.

So instead I will talk about how it was 90 degrees Friday night at 7:05 and 73 degrees last night at 6:30. A couple hours later I nearly had #shivers and left the game after seven innings.

“You," he said, his voice lowering an octave. "I want you, Dutch, body and soul. I want you in my bed every night. I want you there when I wake up in the morning. I want your clothes strung across my apartment and your scent on my skin.”

Charley Davidson & Reyes Farrow have the kind of chemistry that gives #Shivers so a good match for this Ed Sheeran song. The quote is from book 5 of the series but book 1 is tagged below.?

Upon reading Sheerhan's lyrics, I interpreted “shivers“ in a (dare I say) emotionally sexy way. My two favorite characters who give each other the shivers in all 10 books is none other than Jamie and Claire Fraser. 😍

#Shivers - Ed Sheeran

Thank you @RestlessFickleBookSlut for inspiring me to think about 5 authors who have meant something important to me, not even necessarily my most favorite but rather an eclectic crew who have delivered what I needed at moments in my life. My #5forDinner would include Sarah Addison Allen (❤️so far in my 40's), Stephen King (❤️ grade, Middle and high school), Armisted Maupin (❤️college) , Elizabeth Berg (❤️late 20's) and Wally Lamb (❤️ 30's).
