Hours of enjoyment, that's what was waiting for me in this boxed set. A Romantic Suspense collection. Off the top, I have to say - I appreciated the clean-ness of these books. I find that when it's less than clean (for me anyway) it's like going to a party with a spot on the front of your favorite outfit … Continue reading Exposed

Flowers in The Snow, and more
This is going to be another, very basic, catch up list.

The books on this list were well worth reading and I wish there was time to enlarge on them all, as enticement. There is no time though, … Continue reading Flowers in The Snow, and more

the Book of Negroes
This book is a solid 5 stars, in my estimation. This is a story written to capture your interest. I was surprised at the unexpected way it captured mine, given the difficult subject matter. To be honest, it took me over two years to find the courage to read this book. I purchased it only because it kept … Continue reading the Book of Negroes
