Murderer’s Creek by Lavonne Griffin-Valade #LaVonneGriffin-Valade @severnhouse @severnhouse.bsky.social #KindleUnlimited @sophiarose1816

Last year, I followed a whim and read the first book in the series.  I enjoyed trying a new to me author and wished to continue with the series.  It took me a bit, but I finally got around to the next book.  LaVonne Griffin-Valade writes with a very descriptive style for local setting, investigation […]

The Pets in Space series of anthologies have delivered some of my favorite sci-fi romantic adventures and introduced me to several series that are top reads for me.  I adore how there is a theme of pets and a vast majority of sci-fi worlds and situations.  Like with previous anthologies in the series, I’ll be […]

Overall this series is a bit too dramatic for me in the romance storyline. Kindle freebie on December 30, 2024  (currently $5.99 at Amazon and in Kindle […]

A Lover’s Fine Eye is a […]
