Now that we are officially in the winter season, it’s time to share what books I read this past fall. I wanted to start off with the two most heavy storylines. Both both are the bonds between two people who are and have suffered through traumatic experiences. They help heal each other through love, patience, and understanding. Both are one of a kind love stories where you root for fate to be on their side. I tore through each story, each scene of each book. (more…)
