Reading this for the second week in a row because I haven’t had a lot of time to read. I’m sure you understand! I’m enjoying it – love how Liza Palmer tells a story.
I’ve heard good things about The Map of True Places…and I also like the look of More Like Her. Enjoy! And thanks for sharing.

Hi Mary,
Wow! You certainly had a good mailbox last week. All of your authors and titles are new to me, however the two which particularly caught my eye were, ‘Prayers For Sale’ and ‘More Like Her’. I don’t read an awful lot of contemporary romance, but both of those books would be great additions to my reading list.
I too, seem to have very little in the way of quality reading time just lately, so many of the books which cross my path, may feature on MM and then become consigned to my bottomless ‘Want To Read’ list. Still, for an author I am hoping that any promotion, is better than none.
Seasons Greetings to yourself and your family and I hope that 2015 is a good year for you.
Yvonne.

Nice mailbox for Christmas. The Martian, I’m undecided about spending audio credits on it even though I’ve heard it’s good … I’ll keep an eye out for your review and then make up my mind lol. The lead up to Christmas in our house has been pretty crazy so I totally understand the lack of reading time.
Have a joyous Christmas and a safe, healthy, happy holiday break Mary
