I'm like a moth to a flame for any sort of epistolary romance, add in a single parent to the mix and basically it's almost like the book was written for me.

If any of these are triggering to you, this book is not for you. The book does not have any content warnings and I wouldn’t want a reader to be surprised Continue Reading

An absolute page turner from beginning to end. A Continue Reading
