Pilot and the Puck-Up by Pippa Grant- I actually read this a few weeks ago but I forgot about it. It’s been a hectic month, what can I say.

Joey, the heroine was a sarcastic and smart heroine, one of my favorite kinds. Zeus is a not so dumb hockey player. He is instantly smitten with her. I loved the way their relationship builds. Zeus loves Joey for her strengths Continue Reading

Fury by Rachel Vincent Menagerie #3 Urban Fantasy October 30, 2018 by MIRA Favorite Quote: "I love you. I have always loved you. And when I die, it will be with your name on my lips."
