    Helyce,

    Stranger was such a hot and unique book. Funeral home and erotica are not words I would associate, but this book was fantastic, very touching and sad. Megan Hart is one of the best erotica writers out there.
    Oh! And you read Fallen From Grace! That book was sooo good, and quite unexpected, I’m happy to see it available on Kindle so more people can read it. Sadly Laura Leone never quite made it into the romance genre, I read a couple of her other books and I found them lacking and then she stopped writing romances altogether. But Fallen From Grace is one of those hidden gems, I wonder why isn’t more popular…

    Mandi and May,

    I need to read those G.A Aiken book, hearing great things about them!
