Preparing for Toronto!
I'm excited about teaching in Toronto, although a bit apprehensive as I try to determine what to wear--it's 100 degrees here. The temperatures will be considerably cooler there. And I'm thoroughly looking forward to it!What will I take? Free books and book marks. And my class notes, of course. What if my suitcase gets lost? And they don't find it before I have to return home? My son's luggage ...

Some are already fans and want a chance to have a ...

First, here's a terrific review by Wendi at Wendi's Book Corner!!! "I thoroughly enjoyed To Tempt the Wolf, the latest paranormal romance book by Terry Spear!

Not that everyone does now, but more do. :) To Tempt the Wolf is packed with action, mystery and romance, all woven together to make it a thrilling read. The story really moves, with ...
