‘What’s in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet’

Sunday Cravings
How are you Book Lovers? Enjoying your weekend? We are here for yet another Sunday to highlight all those titles that hit the shelves the week to come and we simply can’t wait to get our hands on.
Next week isn’t so heavy, but there are some titles to watch out for.
So, let’s start!
Stella: Widow’s Web by Jennifer Estep
I used to murder people for money, but lately it’s become more of a survival technique. Once an assassin, always an assassin. So much for being plain old Gin Blanco. With every lowlife in Ashland gunning for me, I don’t need another problem, but a new one has come to town anyway. Salina might seem like a sweet Southern belle, but she’s really a dangerous enemy whose water elemental magic can go head-to-head with my own Ice and Stone power. Salina also has an intimate history with my lover, …
