JaneBook Reviews / C Reviews Category / C- Reviews / EbooksFirefighters / friends-to-lovers / Maya-Banks / Secret-Baby3 Comments

Dear Ms. Banks, You know what made me buy this book? Some people had commented on how closely it paralleled Shiloh Walker’s My Best Friend’s Lover. I had to buy the book myself to see if those accusations were true. See how well controversy sells? Suffice to say that these ... more >
