Great read! by WordNerd |
| This novel is the perfect combination of gothic, with the twists of romance. It's a book you can curl up by the fire and read. At times, I thought it quite spooky, but that's what kept me flipping the page. This novel had the perfect conclusion that any romantic would adore. I am satisyfied. |

Reader, I married him by Andrew Fitch |
| Reader, I married him... the plot seems so familiar, but I hadn't bargained for Charlotte's captivating word-crafting. Jane- so much of her time, so much her own woman. |
