rave review for the Bobby and Paolo Holiday Stories

“The adventures of Bobby and Paolo are equally entertaining and intriguing, but at the core is a couple dedicated to each other, which is precisely what makes this collection so special and the pair so likable…It would be criminal if I failed to mention Jared, Bobby's wisecracking, oversexed associate, who helps lighten the mood whenever the atmosphere demands it….The Bobby and Paolo Holiday Stories are delightful tales about love, family, friendship and togetherness.” Thank you Christopher Verleger of Edge Media Network for the glowing review of The Bobby and Paolo Holiday Stories (A Home for the Holidays, The Perfect Gift, The First Noel) published by Dreamspinner Press!

another release day rave review for Bobby and Paolo

“Three years after the first Bobby and Paolo story (A Home for the Holidays), much has happened to lawyer Bobby and fashion designer Paolo – from falling in love to getting married to fostering and then adopting Geoffrey, a little boy much in need of a loving home. Their annual Christmas adventures are some of my favorite reads, and this year’s is no exception….I was glued to the pages as plans were made and events unfolded. Not everything is as it seems – but it’s definitely Christmas and a good time for much-needed miracles!”
Thank you Serena Yates of Rainbow Book Reviews for the lovely release day review of The First Noel, Bobby and Paolo Holiday Stories Book 3. Dreamspinner Press
