REVIEW: Saving the Rifleman by Julie Rowe

JayneC- ReviewsCarina Press / class-difference / Historical / novella / World War I9 Comments

Dear Ms. Rowe, It used to be that books set in the early years of the 20th century were few and far between. This situation has changed a little but whenever I read a blurb or description for a story set during this time frame, I still get excited and ... more >
