The Ex Hex
The Ex Hex by Erin Sterling There are two kinds of books I love to read in the Fall. The first is twisty, creepy, suspenseful thrillers; the other is quirky, witchy, romantic books. If you enjoy that second category, this is a cute one. The Premise: Nine years ago, Vivienne and Rhys were dating. It... Continue Reading →
People We Meet on Vacation

The Real Thing
The Real Thing by Ellen McCarthy A cute essay collection about love and relationships, written by a former wedding reporter.
