message 1436: by LloydieNV (new)

LloydieNV | 4 comments I have been spoiled to death by 2 wonderfully naughty Not Secret Santa's that are ordering from my wish list. Love you ladies!

So I have received:

From one crazy and hot mama, I think ;)

Buttons and Lace by Penelope Sky - Read it upon receipt, loved it!
Pucked (Pucked, #1) by Helena Hunting - Wanted to start this series for so damned long now. Added to my January reading list.
The Flesh Cartel, Season 3 Transformation by Rachel Haimowitz - - not certain this is you but not many folks would call me "Pervy" and know it would tickle me to death, so I am guessing this is you. Frigging ADORE this deliciously dark series.

From my second overly generous and often "damp" Bella not secret santa, I think ;)

All the Rage by T.M. Frazier - One of my all time fav series. Added this sucker to my December Canaries challenge. Cannot wait to get more Rage!
The Flesh Cartel, Season 1 Damnation by Rachel Haimowitz - Devoured this season, licked every virtual page as soon as I got the gift. I am hooked, thank you, thank you!

You ladies rock my world daily, thank YOU!
