Book Review – Dead of Winter by Annelise Ryan #BookBlogger #AmReading

Book Review – The Couple by Sarah Mitchell #BookBlogger #AmReading
Oh my! What a weirdly twisted book... The alleys were dark and felt psychotic. The mind was a fragile thing, once broken remained broken. What the heart wanted, it wanted by any means...
