Especially if your world has changed. Louis is not very comfortable with the way his life is going. New living situation, a mom who has issues, a brother who feels like too much, and a sister who's just trying to fill in some of the missing pieces. With the help of a few new canine friends and a big push from those around him, Louis will learn a lot the summer before high school.

He only hopes he can stay under the radar when he starts high school in the fall, his first experience with public school after years of homeschooling.<br /><br />But when a favor for a neighbor and his stinky canine companion unexpectedly turns into a bustling dog-walking business, Louis finds himself meeting an unprecedented number of new friends—both human and canine. Agatha, a quippy and cagey girl his age always seems to be telling two truths and a lie. Cyrus, a few years his senior, promises he’s going to show Louis how to be a better person, whether Louis wants him to or not. And then there are the dogs: misbehaving border terriers, the four (possible stolen) sausage dogs, the rest of Louis’s charges, and a mysterious white beast who appears at a certain spot at the edge of the woods.<br /><br />Dogs and human alike all seem to have something they want to teach Louis, including his menacing older brother who keeps turning up everywhere. But is Louis ready to learn the lesson he needs most: how to stop being a lone wolf and be part of a pack?</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">*Thank you to @Simonandschuster @simonkids for sharing this title with me. </span></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">#WalkinTheDog #ChrisLynch #Simonandschuster #Simonandschusterchildrenspublishing</span></i></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472302950120460132.post-19906577535108862972024-02-21T00:00:00.001-05:002024-02-21T00:00:00.238-05:00The Lord of the Fading Lands by C.L.

There is no doubt that a great deal of time, effort, heart and soul went into the creation of this series and I am such a fan! <br />First of all this is one big loooooooooong story so before you begin you need to know that you will not get full closure until the last book!<br />This is the story of Elysetta and Rain. Rain is a Tairen Soul, the last of his kind. A Tairen Soul is Fae but also has the power to change into a Tairen. The Tairen are powerful, magical winged cats that can breathe fire. Rain is also King of the Fae and he is both deadly and feared.<br />The Fae have a strong relationship with the Celerians who are mortal. On a journey to Celeria for a political gathering Rain meets his Soul Mate... Elysetta. When a Fae man meets his soul mate he must find a way for her to accept this bond. If she doesn't accept with all her heart, mind and soul then eventually he will be driven to madness and die. And so begins the journey... <br />This story is not just about the coming together of these two souls... it is so much more. The Fae and the Tairen are dying and Rain is desperate to find out why and somehow Elysetta and their bond is vital to the survival of their race. <br />Elysetta is also on a difficult journey of her own which is making it hard for her to complete the bond. She really has no idea who or what she is and cannot complete the bond with Rain until she figures this out. And Rain isn't the only one out to claim her soul. She is also being hunted by the Evil High Mage. <br />The Mages are a nasty evil bunch who practice dark magic and have the ability to claim souls. Once someone has been marked and claimed by a mage they become the mages puppet to be used in whatever way they want. The perfect weapon because your best friend could very well be your enemy if they have fallen victim to a mage claiming. <br />The High Mage wants to claim Elysetta and he stalks her through dreams and magic. If he is able to mark her six times she will belong to him. Rain and Elysetta must complete the bond before this happens... that is the only thing that will keep her safe from the High Mages grasp. <br />The series wraps up with a world war basically. The mages want to gain control and they are out to destroy the Fae. The Fae must align themselves with the Celerians, the Elves and whoever else they can grab to help win the war. If they do not win the world will be consumed by evil and darkness.<br /><br />Just a small<strong> warning</strong>... the High Mage practices dark evil magic. There are elements to his magic that are disturbing. He collects magical prisoners and uses them to create offspring that he hopes to use to his advantage in the impending war against the Fae. So... there is torture, sacrifices (sometimes infants), sexual abuse, rape and scenes of cruelty against children. It is not overly descriptive in most cases but some people may find this content disturbing. <br /><br />There were times that I felt the story was dragging on a bit... but that was just a small complaint for me... once the series is finished you realize that every detail was important. <br />In a nutshell, this story is full of amazing and creative characters that you will both love and hate. There were times I wanted to crawl into the book, move to the fading lands and hook myself up with a Fae Warrior. Fae men love and honor their women and they protect them fiercely. <br />I would love to be able to re-visit this world again... I do hope this author feels compelled to give us more some day. There were so many characters that I wanted to get to know better and I was impressed by this world that C.L. Wilson created. <br />If you are a fan of fantasy mixed with romance with a large dose of action then I highly recommend this series!<br /><br />K~</div></div><div><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: center;">Get it on Amazon</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://amzn.to/49De3Tx">https://amzn.to/49De3Tx</a></div><br /><br /> Once he drove back the darkness. Once he loved with such passion his name was legend.<br /><br />Once, driven wild with grief over the murder of his beloved, the majestic Fey King Rain Tairen Soul had laid waste to the world before vanishing into the Fading Lands. Now, a thousand years later, a new threat draws him back into the world—and a new love reawakens the heart he thought long-dead.<br /><br />Ellysetta, a woodcarver’s daughter, calls to Rain in a way no other ever has. Mysterious and magical, her soul beckons him with a compelling, seductive song—and no matter the cost, the wildness in his blood will not be denied. As an ancient, familiar evil regains its strength, causing centuries-old alliances to crumble and threatening doom for Rain and his people, he must claim his true mate to embrace the destiny woven for them both in the mists of time.</div></div></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: xx-small;">#TheLordoftheFadingLands #CLWilson #HarperCollins #Avon #Happilyeveravon #AvonInfluencer #oldreviewsamegreatbook #booksta #romantasy #fantasy #tairensoul #tairensoulseries</span></i></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472302950120460132.post-9171051585231888892024-02-20T00:00:00.001-05:002024-02-20T00:00:00.138-05:00The Winthrop Agreement by Alice Sherman Simpson<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIEJOAJCZvmywTF71sZ4YsyfdFgwzsvwGJC7b4oK-MeS3fhTA3m1aCuEvJR7pXkXgSE75aCbFFEA0LVGybPQIXVt_SkV-tndprdmf_Ow3qZYZC2m39-Ouz-P3Dcg7Ir7MBiwyXvvu2dlVvvMOtjL3o3j1Y6j68PaRUihRXat_5JWcwpjpX16WJVVRr5XgA/s1076/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-14%20at%2011.23.03%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1076" data-original-width="910" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIEJOAJCZvmywTF71sZ4YsyfdFgwzsvwGJC7b4oK-MeS3fhTA3m1aCuEvJR7pXkXgSE75aCbFFEA0LVGybPQIXVt_SkV-tndprdmf_Ow3qZYZC2m39-Ouz-P3Dcg7Ir7MBiwyXvvu2dlVvvMOtjL3o3j1Y6j68PaRUihRXat_5JWcwpjpX16WJVVRr5XgA/s320/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-14%20at%2011.23.03%20AM.png" width="271" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Out Now!

You’re the only woman I’ve ever loved.” She reached for Felix’s hand and gently closed it over the box. “No,” she whispered. “I want you to propose only when you’re truly free.”<div><br />London, present day: Lily clutches a faded piece of paper in her hands, knowing that her life will never be the same again. Whilst grieving for her late father, she is told that her grandmother was born at Hope’s House, a home for unmarried mothers, the only clues to her past contained on a handwritten Italian recipe and an old theatre programme.<br /><br />Desperate for answers, Lily accepts a job on an Italian vineyard in the heart of picturesque Como – a dream her father once shared. Arriving at the palatial home of the Martinelli family, Lily is captivated by the acres of vines that surround her and instantly feels at home. She is also struck by their charming son Antonio and as they chat long into the night over a candlelit dinner, he offers to help Lily discover her family’s heritage.<br /><br />As Lily unravels the truth of her own legacy, she begins to fall more in love with Italy and with Antonio. And tracing the recipe back to a bakery in a hilltop village, she soon unearths a tragic love story that changes everything…<br /><br />But when Lily discovers who her grandmother really was, can she too have the courage to follow her heart and leave her old life behind? Or will her family’s heart-wrenching story force her home?</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: xx-small;">#TheItalianDaughter #SorayaLane #womensfiction</span></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: xx-small;">#GCP #GrandCentralPublishing #booksta #bookish #novel #GCPinfluencer</span></i></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472302950120460132.post-23130598312556084582024-02-16T00:00:00.002-05:002024-02-16T00:00:00.137-05:00Meet the Benedettos by Katie Cotugno<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUzHYPYVSAp7Tb2SI5OG9oBFj7QhnBZmtuDLFjahvCrvJVNh9nearxXUUFztWItGJ-f4Z8ITiFzJSDDZKakAo5MngqoZOerI0UIcowC8bNwHTWT7STfpQX_LIdlnxYo8_pNhV6PB36Nje-dkRw9-6VAhzltJrbcDFv6bLfGQTfCapeFzdxGoCC-_s8RCiT/s5712/IMG_7418.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="5712" data-original-width="4284" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUzHYPYVSAp7Tb2SI5OG9oBFj7QhnBZmtuDLFjahvCrvJVNh9nearxXUUFztWItGJ-f4Z8ITiFzJSDDZKakAo5MngqoZOerI0UIcowC8bNwHTWT7STfpQX_LIdlnxYo8_pNhV6PB36Nje-dkRw9-6VAhzltJrbcDFv6bLfGQTfCapeFzdxGoCC-_s8RCiT/s320/IMG_7418.jpeg" width="240" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div>Reality show binge-watcher?

A few years after a reality TV show skyrocketed them to pop-culture fame, the five twentysomething sisters are living together in their parents’ crumbling McMansion, nearly broke and teetering towards rock-bottom. Lilly, the sensible second-eldest sister, is all too aware that her family is viewed as a spectacle, but she’s focused on holding herself and her family together, and unlike her siblings she tends not to care what the world thinks.<br /><br />The Benedettos’ fortunes finally appear to be brightening when Charlie Bingley, the dashing star of Captain Fantastic, moves into their Los Angeles neighborhood with his friend Will Darcy in tow. It isn’t long before Charlie falls for the warm and lovely eldest sister, June. Lilly has no such luck: the arrogant and judgmental Will Darcy, a man plagued by his own private demons, seems ready to clash with her at every turn--yet the two can’t seem to stay away from each other. And while the Benedettos’ matriarch sets to work encouraging a potential match between Charlie and June, there are plenty of others in the community who are determined to steer these eligible young men away from a ridiculous family of reality show has-beens...<br /><br />Katie Cotugno brings a big, boisterous cast of characters to life in this deliciously sprawling LA story—a thoroughly fresh and modern tale about a family that’s “famous for being famous,” the ways that preconceived notions make fools of us all, and how unexpected romance can bloom despite the odds.<div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: xx-small;">#MeettheBenedettos #KatieCotugno #ContemporaryFiction #oliveInfluencer #HarperPerennial #Booksta #Bookish #realitytvfiction #birdsofcalifornia #JaneAustin</span></i></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472302950120460132.post-29784794114123392182024-02-15T00:00:00.001-05:002024-02-15T00:00:00.146-05:00Second Duke's the Charm by Kate Bateman<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6hXo9VBcXHvgssk3ujTnEnNy5EuIdTpK1PpO6je3A-x4sFlAzcg0Olj8Vi9Hy5BB9bSnOOZCvNL8d0F6wbWBKZuyzhiMBSLxUqQ0Qv65HhTL9XYcmHQQaDmNuuv7fXUMFV8hqsLM5lbipvPq6N2avtQu7pJZWFTS_JoC6bhNI9Kpiz80idYJijgUZLzzf/s1050/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-14%20at%2010.20.28%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1050" data-original-width="903" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6hXo9VBcXHvgssk3ujTnEnNy5EuIdTpK1PpO6je3A-x4sFlAzcg0Olj8Vi9Hy5BB9bSnOOZCvNL8d0F6wbWBKZuyzhiMBSLxUqQ0Qv65HhTL9XYcmHQQaDmNuuv7fXUMFV8hqsLM5lbipvPq6N2avtQu7pJZWFTS_JoC6bhNI9Kpiz80idYJijgUZLzzf/s320/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-14%20at%2010.20.28%20AM.png" width="275" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;">Thank you so much to @smprtomance for sharing this absolute gem of a read with me!

As Tess works on a new case at the request of Queen Charlotte, her increasingly suspicious behavior makes Justin question her motives—and her past. The infuriating woman clearly can’t be trusted, but Justin doesn’t believe in love, so there’s absolutely no danger of him falling for his own wife...is there?</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">@katebateman @smpromance </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">#seconddukesthecharm #KateBateman </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">#HerMajestysRebels #SMPRomance #SMPInfluencers #StMartinPress</span></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472302950120460132.post-83616477153337205402024-02-14T10:10:00.001-05:002024-02-14T10:10:24.788-05:00For Roger by Laura Drake<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjipDsAx9ChJxh16AVZMda6bcIVsXqCpvje_I8PKifF0W1MyLbpqmYwjks2msogqEbRJh9F7vktdp89e21Qy-DMOZ2WULICRbR2l7nZxvbU1aU1QRsTdqW2Y71crk0TRr1CYOKB2muCnpMkY18ZWnG8UlXKPaurTlAl1JKoXTorMeGXYq6-qhJR3tLUOpSJ/s1081/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-14%20at%2010.06.35%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1081" data-original-width="910" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjipDsAx9ChJxh16AVZMda6bcIVsXqCpvje_I8PKifF0W1MyLbpqmYwjks2msogqEbRJh9F7vktdp89e21Qy-DMOZ2WULICRbR2l7nZxvbU1aU1QRsTdqW2Y71crk0TRr1CYOKB2muCnpMkY18ZWnG8UlXKPaurTlAl1JKoXTorMeGXYq6-qhJR3tLUOpSJ/s320/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-14%20at%2010.06.35%20AM.png" width="269" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Get it on Amazon</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3OJ9gb1"><span style="font-size: x-small;">https://amzn.to/3OJ9gb1</span></a></div><br />For Roger is a thought-provoking and beautifully written story about love and the choices we make in the name of it. It's also a heavy, yet realistic, look into a bitter-sweet conversation about death and how we choose to depart. I've sat with this story for days after reading trying to arrange my thoughts. I think when you're a person midway through life you start to think in different terms of what love and compassion are. For Roger is a tough conversation. It brings up religion, individual state laws, political agendas, and life experiences. Ultimately, the ability to choose the most loving and human way to exit this world with dignity and grace.<div><br /></div><div>Thank you, Laura, for sharing your work with the world.

Happily married to her soulmate, she delights in following rules, her heart and her passion—advocating for women.<div><br />When her husband Roger is diagnosed with Lou Gehrig’s disease, he asks Joan to help him end his life peacefully. But how can she miss one moment of their remaining time together? She refuses.<br /><br />Roger takes his fate into his own hands, and on a Saturday morning bicycle ride, flies down a hill into oncoming traffic. He survives but has multiple fractures and a head injury that causes a crippling stroke.<br />His daughter, a devout preacher’s wife, comes to be by his side. Bee, only three years younger than Joan, has always resented her stepmother, and those feelings intensify as months drag on and Roger’s health and will to live deteriorate.<br />Joan faces an impossible dilemma: How much is she prepared to risk to grant her husband the peace he desperately wants and needs? When Roger dies, Bee has her own answer, and it leads straight to the police.<br /><br />A story of love, truth and family that shines a light on the shadow between justice and mercy.</div></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><i>*Thank you to Laura Drake for sharing her work with me.</i></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><i>Insta - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lauradrakebooks/">@lauradrakebooks</a> - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/lauradrakespeaceloveandbooks">Laura on Facebook</a> </i></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><i>#ForRoger #LauraDrake #womensfiction #peaceloveandbooks </i></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;"><i>#contemporarywomensfiction #favoriteauthor #booksta #bookish #booksthatmakeyouthink</i></span></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472302950120460132.post-88309638790075518752024-02-13T00:00:00.001-05:002024-02-13T00:00:00.360-05:00Happily Ever Maybe by Carrie Ann Ryan<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieGlNLlizXfIjU3GxTcRgGGcy0syNEZaOJwlyxgfQzlAfCs2lY9SZMrMmnXy0I0dCc7COA5jtsrBOZWHK8KBbffZNq4-urOHSUuo3qQHnbJOm8_YVWqLpzGD1ZpGzfPTVNazk6ijwdVNC7YZCPzY1L4yhY64cUYk4msdiqJyPVUKEFOP8Pjq_FPOk9_D8O/s1234/Screenshot%202024-02-11%20at%2011.35.54%E2%80%AFAM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1234" data-original-width="818" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieGlNLlizXfIjU3GxTcRgGGcy0syNEZaOJwlyxgfQzlAfCs2lY9SZMrMmnXy0I0dCc7COA5jtsrBOZWHK8KBbffZNq4-urOHSUuo3qQHnbJOm8_YVWqLpzGD1ZpGzfPTVNazk6ijwdVNC7YZCPzY1L4yhY64cUYk4msdiqJyPVUKEFOP8Pjq_FPOk9_D8O/s320/Screenshot%202024-02-11%20at%2011.35.54%E2%80%AFAM.png" width="212" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Bodyguards + Workplace + One Night Stand = All the Heat</div><div style="text-align: center;">Happily Ever Maybe, a Montgomery Ink Legacy novella from New York</div><div style="text-align: center;">Times bestselling author @carrieannryanauthor is now live!</div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><b><i>Grab your copy today, exclusively on Amazon→ <a href="https://bit.ly/3SIJCWs">https://bit.ly/3SIJCWs</a></i></b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><i>Add to Goodreads→ <a href="https://bit.ly/3O7z93f">https://bit.ly/3O7z93f</a></i></b></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">It was only supposed to be one job.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I know the rules.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Get in.

Today, in hidden corners across the globe their evil blood still pools, and the authority of their new rulers—the Vampire Cabal—must never be challenged. Leave it to a Jersey girl to change ancienthistory . . .<br /> <br />At sixteen, when Peri Sanguis’s wild magic first appeared, she was forced to flee her Wyoming ranch—and her suddenly murderous family—to save her own life. On the East Coast, tutored by mages who run the Witch’s Brew bookstore-cafe, Peri’s world seems magically tranquil—until her estranged mother and a coven of witches are slaughtered. Now, to solve the violent mysteries of her past, she must put her trust, body and soul, in a sensual immortal who is every woman’s darkest fantasy . . .<br /> <br />The golden-eyed vampire, Valen, has never wanted more than to claim an untamed female like Peri. Lured into each other’s orbit, and working together against a resurrected evil brings them intimately closer—to danger, blood betrayals, all-consuming passion, and to sacrifices that must be made to save themselves and the world . . .</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">*Thank you to Kensington Books and Lyrical Press via Netgalley for sharing this title with me!</span></i></b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">#WildMagic #AlexandraIvy #KensingtonBooks #LyricalPress #PNR #Paranormalromance</span></i></b></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472302950120460132.post-30080894647265667872024-01-10T00:00:00.001-05:002024-01-10T00:00:00.138-05:00The Bite Before Christmas by Lynsay Sands and Jeaniene Frost <p style="text-align: center;"> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHXy3HkWtS6tQevbW-zEFD6JNaDsW0H0DPx6UNcGqa_sqAamgAKDi-zQRs5ZV2QnBh0XsuNC1pD3eG3-W9fxEO8v32WHZeixg0nu3yj1of7YEzfnTh-VWbX7iQQ3f6piq2sRiwjCfhIpBoizWeaGVPKASt7SxAQ60e9eKNnzzDukJzbWlSgwjXaTZ5Ad7m/s899/Screen%20Shot%202024-01-09%20at%2012.44.09%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="889" data-original-width="899" height="316" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHXy3HkWtS6tQevbW-zEFD6JNaDsW0H0DPx6UNcGqa_sqAamgAKDi-zQRs5ZV2QnBh0XsuNC1pD3eG3-W9fxEO8v32WHZeixg0nu3yj1of7YEzfnTh-VWbX7iQQ3f6piq2sRiwjCfhIpBoizWeaGVPKASt7SxAQ60e9eKNnzzDukJzbWlSgwjXaTZ5Ad7m/s320/Screen%20Shot%202024-01-09%20at%2012.44.09%20PM.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p></p><div style="text-align: center;">Get it on Amazon</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://amzn.to/4aQoEvv">https://amzn.to/4aQoEvv</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>With The Bite Before Christmas, New York Times bestsellers Lynsay Sands and Jeaniene Frost—two of the hottest names in paranormal romance—team up for the first time to bring lucky readers a holiday anthology…with teeth!

Perfect for readers of Josie Silver and Rebecca Serle.<div> <br />Sadie Thatcher’s life has fallen apart in spectacular fashion. In one fell swoop, she managed to lose her job, her apartment, and her boyfriend—all thanks to her big mouth. So when a fortune teller offers her one wish, Sadie jumps at the chance to redo her awful year. Deep down, she doesn’t believe magic will fix her life, but taking a leap of faith, Sadie makes her wish, opens her eyes, and . . . nothing has changed. And then, in perhaps her dumbest move yet, she kisses her brother’s best friend, Jacob.<br /><br />When Sadie wakes up the next morning, she’s in her former apartment with her former boyfriend, and her former boss is expecting her at work. Checking the date, she realizes it's January 1 . . . of last year. As Sadie navigates her second-chance year, she begins to see the red flags she missed in her relationship and in her career. Plus, she keeps running into Jacob, and she can’t stop thinking about their kiss . . . the one he has no idea ever happened. Suddenly, Sadie begins to wonder if her only mistake was wishing for a second chance.</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><b><span style="font-size: xx-small;">*Thank you to ForeverPub for sharing this title with me. </span></b></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><b><span style="font-size: xx-small;">#readforever #readforeverpub #thesecondchanceyear #melissawiesner #romancereader #romance</span></b></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><b><span style="font-size: xx-small;">#booksta #bookish #conrtemperaryromance</span></b></i></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472302950120460132.post-43200990157974231612023-12-04T00:00:00.019-05:002023-12-04T00:00:00.242-05:00The Curse of Penryth Hall by Jess Armstrong<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLeH1yRLNczqOJ2yo_xBFbPeR__Vrtu1xzxsBldUyhFTw2bJ_L89yMJKnwCgEnjRRFC6LvB118jAiupgqlqJrmehnD_pCKMsJpgkh6Yc_7AzTURpdZR9zXHiuQORXgdeeYDjRhG72u6-bwzAX5iqc39jXdzXiJblzhaWDBwztwXiF7GV5EExmVldVko2KP/s922/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-06%20at%201.20.13%20PM.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="869" data-original-width="922" height="302" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLeH1yRLNczqOJ2yo_xBFbPeR__Vrtu1xzxsBldUyhFTw2bJ_L89yMJKnwCgEnjRRFC6LvB118jAiupgqlqJrmehnD_pCKMsJpgkh6Yc_7AzTURpdZR9zXHiuQORXgdeeYDjRhG72u6-bwzAX5iqc39jXdzXiJblzhaWDBwztwXiF7GV5EExmVldVko2KP/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-06%20at%201.20.13%20PM.png" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Shoutout to the cover designer.

She’s always avoided dwelling on the past, even before the war, but it always has a way of finding her. When Ruby is forced to deliver a box of books to a folk healer living deep in the Cornish countryside, she is brought back to the one place she swore she’d never return. A more sensible soul would have delivered the package and left without rehashing old wounds. But no one has ever accused Ruby of being sensible. Thus begins her visit to Penryth Hall.<div><br />A foreboding fortress, Penryth Hall is home to Ruby’s once dearest friend, Tamsyn, and her husband, Sir Edward Chenowyth. It’s an unsettling place, and after a more unsettling evening, Ruby is eager to depart. But her plans change when Penryth’s bells ring for the first time in thirty years. Edward is dead; he met a gruesome end in the orchard, and with his death brings whispers of a returned curse. It also brings Ruan Kivell, the person whose books brought her to Cornwall, the one the locals call a Pellar, the man they believe can break the curse. Ruby doesn’t believe in curses—or Pellars—but this is Cornwall and to these villagers the curse is anything but lore, and they believe it will soon claim its next victim: Tamsyn.<br /><br />To protect her friend, Ruby must work alongside the Pellar to find out what really happened in the orchard that night.</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">Thank you to @Minotaur_Books for sharing this title with me.</span></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">@JessL_Armstrong #TheCurseofPenrythHall #JessArmstrong #MinotaurBooks</span></i></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472302950120460132.post-19888284026306932212023-11-29T00:00:00.027-05:002023-11-29T00:00:00.134-05:00Spoon to be Dead by Dana Mentink <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaTiLbe1301w14_sEAUMIJebQ1iOVeekHELrSy46Il729U56t-tPPyXXG1t9n-2gvX-qAcSO2O5uZlr8bnet_jO0EEwIGX8x6ZAA2MtaE_GPFj0O4oHwo7LXfHu3vi8LALJCGHlZJ5usb3mNgkVTa-3fq6O41jxT3va0l5vRbyFIped8m-DjCAChdxqg7s/s1109/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-06%20at%203.23.39%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1109" data-original-width="911" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaTiLbe1301w14_sEAUMIJebQ1iOVeekHELrSy46Il729U56t-tPPyXXG1t9n-2gvX-qAcSO2O5uZlr8bnet_jO0EEwIGX8x6ZAA2MtaE_GPFj0O4oHwo7LXfHu3vi8LALJCGHlZJ5usb3mNgkVTa-3fq6O41jxT3va0l5vRbyFIped8m-DjCAChdxqg7s/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-06%20at%203.23.39%20PM.png" width="263" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>Delightfully fun reading with mystery abound!

Now they’re adults, and time has been kind to some and unkind to others—none more so than to Bea, the one they lost nine long years ago.<br /> <br />They’ve gathered to reminisce at Bea’s family’s estate, a once-glorious mansion straight out of a gothic novel. Best friends, old flames, secret enemies, and new lovers are all under one roof. But when the weather turns and they’re snowed in at the edge of eternity, there’s nowhere left to hide from their shared history.<br /> <br />As the walls close in, the pretense of normality gives way to long-buried grief, bitterness, and rage. Underneath it all, there’s the nagging feeling that Bea’s shocking death wasn’t what it was claimed to be. And before the weekend is through, the truth will be unleashed—no matter the cost. . . .<div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">*Thank you to @Berkley for sharing this title with me via Netgalley.</span></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">@NaliniSingh #ThereShouldHaveBeenEight #NaliniSingh #BerkleyPub #Thriller #Suspense #CrimeDrama </span></i></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472302950120460132.post-81183863233765138212023-11-20T00:00:00.045-05:002023-11-20T00:00:00.147-05:00Inheritance by Nora Roberts<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPV0PqYLnvuT3isDyqg-Ne3PvffopQlHqYv94Xmqj4AEvn_aj4a1ZMlH7YJBauDQ_hgYDVRbBH8IUmpOTKeM0AoRdGSa9JPTceGkgZCaQz4wjl5XDBLc1Rt3vpu0UAXlHkSLNqRDuqMDC_nZM1SWLpWU_x0VazD6QY6z7S8po68IqDxjTq7Yl8_EjWzyM2/s984/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-06%20at%201.28.21%20PM.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="984" data-original-width="904" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPV0PqYLnvuT3isDyqg-Ne3PvffopQlHqYv94Xmqj4AEvn_aj4a1ZMlH7YJBauDQ_hgYDVRbBH8IUmpOTKeM0AoRdGSa9JPTceGkgZCaQz4wjl5XDBLc1Rt3vpu0UAXlHkSLNqRDuqMDC_nZM1SWLpWU_x0VazD6QY6z7S8po68IqDxjTq7Yl8_EjWzyM2/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-06%20at%201.28.21%20PM.png" width="294" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I don't know how she does it, folks.

But before her marriage can be consummated, she is murdered, and the circle of gold torn from her finger. Her last words are a promise to Collin never to leave him…<br /><br />Graphic designer Sonya MacTavish is stunned to learn that her late father had a twin he never knew about―and that her newly discovered uncle, Collin Poole, has left her almost everything he owned, including a majestic Victorian house on the Maine coast, which the will stipulates she must live in it for at least three years. Her engagement recently broken, she sets off to find out why the boys were separated at birth―and why it was all kept secret until a genealogy website brought it to light.<br /><br />Trey, the young lawyer who greets her at the sprawling clifftop manor, notes Sonya’s unease―and acknowledges that yes, the place is haunted…but just a little. Sure enough, Sonya finds objects moved and music playing out of nowhere. She sees a painting by her father inexplicably hanging in her deceased uncle’s office, and a portrait of a woman named Astrid, whom the lawyer refers to as “the first lost bride.” It’s becoming clear that Sonya has inherited far more than a house. She has inherited a centuries-old curse, and a puzzle to be solved if there is any hope of breaking it…<br /></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">*Thank you to @stmartinspress for sharing this title with me.</span></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">@norarobertsauthor @NoraRoberts @turnthepagebookstore #stmartinspress #smpinfluencer</span></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">#Inheritance #NoraRoberts #TheLostBrideTrilogy #romance #romanticsuspense #InheritanceNovel </span></i></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472302950120460132.post-67435416357884004852023-11-17T00:00:00.000-05:002023-11-17T00:00:00.138-05:00Mostly Plant-Based Platters & Boards by Lea Dixon<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9cR3ivUT66JIeNgZQizKHmBVurX-m3cExH9TC5WhPZE46vqAdPLQD5JPJyYCJc8XykXqrELZj6BkAJar5dqf07FyqM0CES3uJ5VuZhyphenhyphenclmaL3vZ8fagwkW3mRgmYi7mrg-JbBW842O_ekWE0YDjoUlL8OsIiIb_wjpvWaHVnv9TvoOvbmswRPrM-JJ-p1/s916/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-06%20at%201.24.18%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="916" data-original-width="914" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9cR3ivUT66JIeNgZQizKHmBVurX-m3cExH9TC5WhPZE46vqAdPLQD5JPJyYCJc8XykXqrELZj6BkAJar5dqf07FyqM0CES3uJ5VuZhyphenhyphenclmaL3vZ8fagwkW3mRgmYi7mrg-JbBW842O_ekWE0YDjoUlL8OsIiIb_wjpvWaHVnv9TvoOvbmswRPrM-JJ-p1/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-06%20at%201.24.18%20PM.png" width="319" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Oh friends!

As the arguably lesser of the three former members of the boy band INK, he enjoyed his fifteen minutes of fame and then moved home where he opened a regional pizza chain called Slice, Slice, Baby! He’s living his best dad bod life, hooking up with bridesmaids at all his friends’ weddings. But after an old one-off sex tape is leaked and quickly goes viral, Kallum decides he’s ready to step into the spotlight again, starring in a sexy Santa biopic for the Hope Channel. <br /><br />Winnie Baker did everything right. She married her childhood sweetheart, avoided the downfalls of adolescent stardom, and transitioned into a stable adult acting career. Hell, she even waited until marriage to have sex. But after her perfect life falls apart, Winnie is ready to redefine herself—and what better way than a steamier-than-a-steaming-hot-mug-of-cider Christmas movie?<br /><br />With decade old Hollywood history between them, Winnie and Kallum are both feeling hesitant about their new situation as costars…especially Winnie who can’t seem to fake on screen pleasure she’s never experienced in real life. She’s willing to do the pleasure research—for science and artistic authenticity, of course. And there’s no better research partner than her bridesmaid sex tape hall of fame costar, Kallum. But suddenly, Kallum’s teenage crush on Winnie is bubbling to the surface and Winnie might be catching feelings herself. <br /><br />They say opposites attract, but is this holly jolly ever after really ready for its close-up?<div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">*Thank you to @AvonBooks for sharing this title with me.</span></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">@andimjulie @TheSierraSimone #AHollyJollyEverAfter #JulieMurphy #SierraSimone #HappilyEverAvon #ReadAvon #AvonInfluencer #RomanceBooks #RomCom #HolidayReading #HolidayRomance</span></i></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472302950120460132.post-64427945703778534852023-11-15T00:00:00.004-05:002023-11-15T00:00:00.151-05:00Triple Cross by James Patterson<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm4LzHyfzhWqihEq1707GrWmTA71tVnpl01i_za51uy-4uPd6cyGYMl2Q_nTbUgAf4JNWM4BIK27KUFyXgTfTOc2td0d3CyRrY3phrMtNmiL9IPo4wcEWmhBzVU4FKVEAMJT9ZjnATXZztnI55TcwGYKhq2SC-dV_ONXuF9ZczCYC-_eQEgxw5TFsDWlch/s1074/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-06%20at%201.45.19%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1074" data-original-width="914" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm4LzHyfzhWqihEq1707GrWmTA71tVnpl01i_za51uy-4uPd6cyGYMl2Q_nTbUgAf4JNWM4BIK27KUFyXgTfTOc2td0d3CyRrY3phrMtNmiL9IPo4wcEWmhBzVU4FKVEAMJT9ZjnATXZztnI55TcwGYKhq2SC-dV_ONXuF9ZczCYC-_eQEgxw5TFsDWlch/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-06%20at%201.45.19%20PM.png" width="272" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">As always, a fab read from the incredible James Patterson.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>~Tanja</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">Out Now ~ Get it on Amazon</span></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3G6C9JH"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">https://amzn.to/3G6C9JH</span></i></a></div><br /> James Patterson's #1 bestselling hero Detective Alex Cross hunts down a serial killer who targets entire families—and who will next be coming for the Crosses. <br /><br />A precise killer, he always moves under the cover of darkness, flawlessly triggering no alarms, leaving no physical evidence. Cross and Sampson aren’t the only ones investigating. Also in on this most intriguing case is the world’s bestselling true-crime author, who sees patterns everyone else misses. The writer, Thomas Tull, calls the Family Man murders the perfect crime story. He believes the killer may never be caught. Cross knows there is no perfect crime. And he’s going to hunt down the Family Man no matter what it takes. Until the Family Man decides to flip the narrative and bring down Cross and his family. <div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">*Thank you to GrandCentralPub for sharing this title with me.</span></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">@JamesPattersonBooks #TripleCross #JamesPatterson #mystry #suspense #thriller #GCP #novelsuspects</span></i></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472302950120460132.post-60501166130197378582023-11-14T00:00:00.004-05:002023-11-14T00:00:00.132-05:00A Wish For Christmas by Courtney Cole<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuBMyEiXjHeBH1jqpMxTVdF3aFFbRMWV7MC615BqNONcqMsx-vQ8rNbC2qHITWxM51w9kFtQPErcHZaG-Z6Z8r5TNZ0w9no7I_vmgFKNE9vif07G8oY_YtW2WqY-_pXTt6K2qQRyFGVTpacPBc7d_RcamecJPGx-O1naIxXS7-8LDawJnW0s5u3M7QCpvV/s1021/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-06%20at%201.46.45%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1021" data-original-width="910" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuBMyEiXjHeBH1jqpMxTVdF3aFFbRMWV7MC615BqNONcqMsx-vQ8rNbC2qHITWxM51w9kFtQPErcHZaG-Z6Z8r5TNZ0w9no7I_vmgFKNE9vif07G8oY_YtW2WqY-_pXTt6K2qQRyFGVTpacPBc7d_RcamecJPGx-O1naIxXS7-8LDawJnW0s5u3M7QCpvV/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-11-06%20at%201.46.45%20PM.png" width="285" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Courtney Cole has been one of my favorite feel-good authors since before I started book blogging.

After several years of marriage, she and her husband Jonah are quietly drifting apart. The only time they really talk at all anymore is when they walk their dog, Elliott. And even then it usually ends in bickering.<br /><br />When, one snowy day, Elliott manages to slip his leash, they find him blocks away in the care of a mysterious old man who asks them to make a wish on an old snow globe. Eager to get their dog safely home, they agree to his strange request. Neither one realizes that the wish they’re about to make will change the course of their lives... possibly forever.<br /><br />When Noel and Jonah wake up the next morning, they’re in separate beds, separate apartments, separate lives. But are they any happier? As they live the existences they’d always wished for, both feel that something very important is missing. And when a chance encounter brings the pair back together, they find they have a spark of something very special.<br /><br />Will they be able to find their way back to each other before it’s too late, or does the Christmas Magic have another fate in store?<div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">*Thank you to @AvonBooks for sharing this title with me.</span></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">@courtneycolewrites #HappilyeverAvon #Avonbook #AWishForChristmas #CourtneyCole #HolidayRomance #Holidayreads </span></i></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3472302950120460132.post-44955048962188797182023-11-13T00:00:00.001-05:002023-11-13T00:00:00.144-05:00Never Met A Duke Like You by Amalie Howard<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUEG85YhlhSZaoeqcFAzeGgl1r1fYoSZcJSiX-l5HvJBF8BazNf_tD4Yua1SpQtw39b-uPI0LmRfqr06FO6E4BwpKRU907n2Mzywql-RIPlz6OKekEvnc5XEk3mnPU3K5z1OSdET6KZq6e-g_adqA6YDkGgobjYxoYkr1up1vy3sr1p_JsTMq2Aed3BQoc/s5712/IMG_4992.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="5712" data-original-width="4284" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUEG85YhlhSZaoeqcFAzeGgl1r1fYoSZcJSiX-l5HvJBF8BazNf_tD4Yua1SpQtw39b-uPI0LmRfqr06FO6E4BwpKRU907n2Mzywql-RIPlz6OKekEvnc5XEk3mnPU3K5z1OSdET6KZq6e-g_adqA6YDkGgobjYxoYkr1up1vy3sr1p_JsTMq2Aed3BQoc/s320/IMG_4992.jpeg" width="240" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">A funny and wildly entertaining romp of a historical romance!</div><div style="text-align: center;">Smiles abound while reading, Never Met A Duke Like You by Amalie Howard.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>~Tanja</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Releases 14 November - Get it on Amazon</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3Su7ugB">https://amzn.to/3Su7ugB</a></div><br /> Lady Vesper Lyndhurst is beautiful, clever, and popular. Afforded every luxury as a duke’s daughter, she fills her days with friends, intrigues, and a self-professed knack for matchmaking. She may have sworn off love for herself, but she is rather excellent at arranging it. <br /><br />Faced with an insolvent estate, the Duke of Greydon has no choice but to return to England in a final attempt to revive his family’s fortunes. He’s been gone for years, happy to have escaped his mother and the petty circles of the ton. To his dismay, not much has changed, including the beautiful and vexing heiress next door. <br /><br />But when an accident of fate traps the friends-turned-enemies in an attic together, the explosive attraction between them becomes impossible to ignore and even harder to resist. They are total opposites and their lives don’t align in the slightest, but fate, the ultimate matchmaker, appears to have other plans . . . <div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">*Thank you to @Foreverpub for sharing this title with me.</span></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-size: x-small;">@AmalieHoward #NeverMetADukeLikeYou #AmalieHoward #ReadForeverPub #ReadForever #RomCom #FunnyRomance </span></i></div>KT Book Reviewshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10293605609465567575noreply@blogger.com0
