This past Saturday was my birthday and I was out of town celebrating (which is why it was quiet over the weekend here at Book Briefs. I had a great time and my Seminoles even pulled out a last second win against Notre Dame. That game was intense! Today I am back and sharing the […]
Oh how I needed to read Prophecy. I haven’t given a book 5 star in so long. I have read some meh books and a lot of good books. But there is a difference between a good book, or even a great book and a book that just warms you up from the inside out. […]

Wednesday is a quick and steamy second chance love story. It’s really more of a second attempt at a first chance, because Aria and Tristan didn’t really get much of a first chance.
