This is a really sweet enchanting love story. The characters are well done and Sweet Maple is the perfect quaint little village for all the magical activities.

Since the only knitting books I know of are either books with patterns or cozy mysteries, I was intrigued. I stuck the title on my TBR list and moved on.Well, I finally read it.And though this is probably categorized as a paranormal romance, it's really a cozy/fluffy romance with some paranormal ele...

This book combines so many elements that I love - yarn, knitting, witches and a slew of amazing paranormal characters. Known around the US as the place to shop for yarn and learn to knit; Chloe has her hands full with Sticks & Strings. In a small Vermont town called Sugar Maple everything is perfe...

This is really bordering on the 3.5 to me and that's only because Bretton introduced Samuel and we got a glimpse of Aerynn.Chloe and Luke have just defeated Isadora (literally just finished, this book starts where the other finished) and they realize that oops, the town is missing.By missing I mean ...

Romance can work, and magic...

Think the slightly darker version of the first one yet still light enough to read.Luke and Chloe are starting to make some headway into their relationship. They live together, sleep together and seem to fit in every way. Except that they don't really know each other that well, so it's a small surpri...

Right off the bat I'll let you know that this book is not a "World According to Garp" but it has a charm and a fuzzy feel good warmth that just begs the reader to read this book under a blanket with a glass of wine on a cold winter night.Chloe is a human, well ok, half0human half-magick, only thing ...
