I’ve wanted to read a Samantha Kane book for quite some time now. I have her first Brothers In Arms book on my Kindle, but haven’t gotten to it Continue Reading

She is upset that the “evil” step-mothers and other creatures in fairytale lore get a bad rap. It is at a book fair where she is staging a protest she meets Prince Charming – Continue Reading
