Review: One Grave at a Time by Jeaniene Frost
One Grave at a Time by Jeaniene Frost (Night Huntress #6) Paranormal Romance August 30, 2011 Paperback Avon Reviewed by Mandi One Grave at a Time is book six in one of my favorite paranormal series. What I love is that Jeaniene Frost has given us a series where the hero and heroine has had a very strong relationship since book one.
