Helen (helen57) | 3403 comments Hi All

Sorry I have no idea how to link the books :) and I have started reading Smolder by Tracy Solheim it is an e-book and I cannot find out anywhere how many pages are in it the average reading time of the book is around 4 hours so I am guessing it is about 280 to 300 pages should I guess or does someone know where I can find the page count for it ?

Thanks
Have Fun

A good weekend for reading here in Sydney with the bad weather
