Pariahs & Prodigals (Rain Falls #3)
EXCERPT: Meeting My Maker & Other Kitchen Disasters The Krups KM-7000. It ground its own beans. It made perfectly calibrated coffee.

Plethora
The old one! reviewed Plethora This is like an adult fairy tale September 25, 2016 This is like an adult fairy tale. It is so absorbing and yet so realistic. There was a “plethora” of wonderful characters and I loved them all. I really liked Brenna and Micah but absolutely loved Tilly.

The same quirky sense of humor found in this author’s books surely abounds in this one. So, in a nut shell, don’t hesitate to read this if … Continue reading →
