#BookReview ~ Hidden Under Her Heart
Title: Hidden Under Her Heart (A Story of Abortion & Courage)Author: Rachelle AyalaGenre: Women's fictionRating: 5/5 stars

First off, I really like Lucas. He has his flaws and is perhaps a bit extreme in some of his views, but deep dow...

Plotter or Pantser?
Seems there is a hot debate on what is the proper way to go about things. I know plotters who swear they can't write a single word until everything is mapped out. Likewise, pantser could never make it through a story they already knew the details of.

Maggie is a strong woman who has had a lot of tragedy in her life that she needs to work out and get over. Her problems run deeper than she'll allow herself to admit and beyond this being the story o...
