Maryse,
Was fun to go through your blasts from the past this week! Particularly liked your review of Cuffed by K. Bromberg. The banter is fabulous. Missed that one…will look it up.
A Deal With The Devil by Elizabeth OβRoark looks like a great story about an arrogant British guy and his new assistant. Just my cup of tea. I read the sample & the writing was very good.
It’s free on Amazon KU right now.
Elizabeth OβRoark is HUGELY loved here. She had a very addictive time-travel series not that long ago that our crew devoured.
Thanks Maryse! I don’t know her work that well…ok, then I’m gonna put this one up for a group read!
I just finished A Deal with the Devil. Loved it!! I couldnβt put it down. The banter was hilarious. Iβm not familiar with this author either. The next one sounds good too.
OMG YAY!!!! Thank you Lisa for that feedback. I’ll be posting it tomorrow!! π
Just finished 2 books by Tarryn Fisher. Atheists Who Kneel and Pray & F*ck Marriage – fantastic! Couldn’t put them down! Both 5-star reads for me.
