Book Review: Malachite
Don’t mistake a slow-burn romance for a slow book; this title is fast-paced and plot-heavy from page one, every new secret creating drama.

Book Review: Angels’ Blood
Delightfully fun and campy! Throw in some chases and supernatural hunting agencies and you have 2000âs urban fantasy at its finest!
