For any author who would like his/her book to be reviewed, contact me. Poetry books too are solicited for reviewing. However, there are some genres I tend to avoid. Feel free to ask me.

I must mention here that I read at my own pace and depending on my mood. Don't ask me to hurry.
Dewy was a very good rat; he was brilliant about finding information without ever being found seen or heard.
All Mine by Ella J. Quince
Lillian St. James is the daughter of a duke. Her mother remarries a seedy merchant after the duke's death. Her mother dies and Lillian St. James has so place to go to when a scandal erupts because of her stepfather's treason. She goes to work as a cook’s assistant in the kitchen of a mysterious aristocrat.
Dominic Coel, Earl of Redwick, is a spy and he must track down a young girl who has disappeared with stolen royal jewels. Meanwhile, he is distracted by the mysterious Miss Millie James who has joined his staff.
As a regency romance, it had a good pace. Dominic is a good, protective hero. Lillian is not afraid of anything. She does not mind the work. The equation between them is good.

Sounds like this book would be a good escape. I like your Teaser.
My Teaser is from THE FRIENDSHIP STAR QUILT.
Sounds like a good read. Enjoy!
Sounds like an enjoyable story. My teasers are from Shield of Winter by Nalini Singh and Midnight Thief by Livia Blackburne. Happy reading!
I saw the cover and thought, meh, but the teaser didn't match it and I am now intrigued.
Wonder how Dewy fits into the story.
I tend to not like romances with spies. I wonder if it's because they lie for a living?
