The 4th book in the Guild Hunter’s series changes to feature Dmitri, Archangel Raphael’s 2nd-in-command at the angel towers. While the 3 previous books were all [...]

Huzzah! I can not WAIT for this book to come out. You may remember (okay, you won’t) my fabulous review of Just the Sexiest Man Alive but I adored her first book, her second, third, and I can’t wait for her next book to come out. These are contemporary romances and they are funny, touching, [...]
