i Love Nora Roberts anyway, i like her writing style, so they are great for me, and the characters are just fab, i love that Rourke only has one name, like Madonna hahaha

Woohoo! I'll take that space then unless anyone has taken it

I also think that the one I'm reading at the moment might work too I'm on the app so this might not work lol

Would count for the red, white, black & yellow?
Would you say that was red or orange?

If it works I can read for that space, I've got to read one set in the UK first for another challenge, but we could use that for a spell out
