Both men come from traumatizing backgrounds with horrible parents (to say the least).

    [Book Review] The Lost Year By Libby Drew & Marley Coffee Simmer Down

    [Book Review] Sharp Love By Ava March & Groundwork Coffee Lucky Jack

    Oh, how I do love a good romance. Sharp Love is a historical, Regency Era friends-to-lover romance that simply knocked my socks off. With the combination of friendship, love, and hot intimacy – I simply couldn’t but this one down and read it all in one sitting (and into the wee hours of the morning).

    [Book Review] Sin By Sharron Riddle & Coffee People Black Tiger Extra Bold Coffee

    With an urban setting, fickle Fey politics, and a school/compound where young druids are raised in the ways of magic, Sin is kind of like Harry Potter meets Holly Black’s Modern Faerie Tale series.
