Review: Altered by Marnee Blake
Altered by Marnee Blake Released: December 8, 2015 Paranormal Romance Entangled Reviewed by Mandi The premise of this book really drew me in.

The heroine somehow survives and the hero who is just visiting along with some other friends make it. They gain superpowers (well water was infected) and save the world. Not really, but super-hero romance Continue Reading

Did anything really happen in this book?? Sheena and I are going to break it down. Please be aware there are SPOILERS Continue Reading
