Jen’s Mini Reviews: Books by Marni Mann, Rachel Kapelke-Dale and Claire Kingsley
I feel a bit out of practice with writing reviews. Its, unfortunately, been a busy few weeks. The good news is, I liked all three of these books. And they were VERY different stories.

In this case, I was intrigued by the title of this romance. How the Grump Saved Christmas is basically a Continue Reading

The Rivals of Casper Road by Roan ParrishLGBTQ+ RomanceSept 27, 2022 by Harlequin Review by Kate H. I’ve been procrastinating on this review because I am a fan of Roan Parrish. I love her Middle of Somewhere and Riven series, and I have enjoyed the Garnet Run books, set in one of those utopian small towns where half the population is queer and the other half is benign. The third book in the series The Lights on Knockbridge Lane took Continue Reading
