Contemporary Romance Color of the Year with six swatches in green, peach, fuchsia, lavender, blue and yellow

I’m BACK! It took me awhile to do this last one because, well, you’ll see. But if you’re just arriving here at the mayhem, welcome!

Books on Sale: A Lady for a Duke by Alexis Hall & More

Books on Sale: A Promise of Fire by Amanda Bouchet & More

RECOMMENDED: A Promise of Fire by Amanda Bouchet is 62c at Amazon and 99c at Barnes & Noble! The second book is also on sale and we have a chapter one reveal of the third and final book! I gave the book an A:

I can say, without a doubt, that A Promise of Fire is going on my keeper shelf. I want more of these characters and I want more of this world. I cannot remember the last time I wanted to both savor and devour a book, and Bouchet’s writing is so engaging and magical that I wish she had some sort of backlist I could dive into for the next few months. If you’re even slightly tempted by this review or from the chapter one excerpt, buy this book. Because I need more people to discuss it with, pronto!
