Friends, I wrote in my review of Venom that I was chomping at the bit for Belladonna, book two in Fiona Paul’s The Secrets Of The Eternal Rose series. I must have some kind of good karma in the bank because I got lucky enough to receive an early copy. I will be frank with you and […]
Raven Flight | Juliet Marillier | Book Review
October 21, 2013
