♥ Marlene♥ Okay I ordered Make Him Look Good for her and it just arrived. I will give it to her on May 1 (her 19th Birthday) I hope she will enjoy it as much as the other 2 books. thanks


♥ Marlene♥ Hi Alisa. My 18 year old daughter, (nearly 19) is a big fan of yours. The first book she read of you was The Dirty Girls Social Club. Then she had a year where she did not read at all. (Not happy about that at all) But again thanks to your other book: Playing With Boys which she finished yesterday, she has ordered me ;) to buy the other books you have written. lol. Well I am so glad she is reading again and now I can finally read Playing with Boys myself.
Hugs. Marlene


Bradley I hope you are having a good day! =)
