Suggestions for romantic tv shows/books/films to slake my second trimester thirst!

Sorry TMI but this pregnancy it seems I’m having the side effect of a massively raised libido in my second trimester. Obviously we are… ahem.. addressing it in certain ways Blush but I find I’m also obsessed with romance content in a totally uncharacteristic way.

It’s bizarre. It’s like being a hormonal teen again. I’m never someone who is especially interested in fit celebs or anything like that but with sex on the brain I’m watching/reading anything I can get.

I’m not after porn but proper romantic tv or films with someone really, really hot in it or a really good romantic read. Current obsession is Luke Evans in The Alienist - I literally fast forward through the crime stuff to just watch him brood over Dakota Fanning. I’ve even started reading online fanfic based on their characters.

Any recommendations? Love period drama type stuff and things that aren’t too tense/sad. In normal times I would choose horror or a thriller not romance but my brain/body isn’t normal at the moment!

Thanks!

Bridgerton. Both the show and the books (of which there are 8!)
