Smutty Elf does gift great books, indeed ;) Really eager to read what she sent me. As for you, well, what can I say : I loved The Station by Keira Andrews. As for Enemy of My Enemy (The Executive Office, #2) by Tal Bauer, I know you're going to love it : hurry up because I'm sure there's going to be a group set up soon to read book 3 once it's released and you have to join it : it will be so fun :-)"

Yes ma'am, I will make those 2 of the next ones coming up! :)

I also got another clue and I feel bad. You don't have to keep gifting me to give me more clues, because I am useless at figuring it out, LOL!! But thank you so so much for the gift anyway! :D

Really? I think I actually like the first one a tiny bit better but not much, it was probably more of a tie for the most part.

I might be biased because Lesto is my favorite character in the series; with Shemal as a close second.

message 1799: by Midniteillusion (new)

Midniteillusion | 89 comments Apologies to my Secret Santa my email (Yahoo!) aparently has been eating emails from Amazon and didn't bother to tell me that you sent me some wonderful books.
I found For a Good Time, Call... by Jessica Gadziala and Dissent (Scars #2) by Jessica Gadziala sitting in my spam folder late last night, it made me so :( that my email was eating these instead of letting me read them.

But now I have them safe in my hot little hand and ready to read :)

I'm also headed to the post office tomorrow to check out what the mailman has brought me.

Thank you bunches Secret Santa!
