  • When Old Meets New: Gentle Rogue and Rock Hard

    Since this whole project started because of a conversation about the Fated Mates Gentle Rogue episode, it seemed only fitting for Dani and me to start our project with Gentle Rogue by Johanna Lindsey, published in 1990.

    Continuing with the Top 10 of 2019, hosted by Kimberly and Ginger, today’s topic is your favorite covers. I limited myself to books that I’ve read, even though I think a few of the ones I haven’t read have incredible covers and while I tried to keep it to only 2019 books, I’m so in

    Captivating Characters

    I’m really excited to get to write about my favorite characters from this year and also overwhelmed that I am supposed to only list for you ten???
