Review: Headed for Trouble

Headed for Trouble by Suzanne Brockmann

My rating: 1 of 5 stars



Sorry I purchased this book. I just don't understand the point of these snippets relating to previous stories/characters. Really disappointed.

Review: A Man to Hold on To

A Man to Hold on To by Marilyn Pappano

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



Definitely better than the first book in the series. And has me wondering what will happen with the other characters... Looks like I will probably be back for more action in Tallgrass.
