This is my first book by her and I'm enjoying it. I selected it for the historical category because it isn't set in modern day.

[Kellene]

I will definitely check out the other series as well. I have a couple of Barbara Michaels' books on my bookshelf that I've had forever but never got around to reading. I didn't realize they were the same person. Now I'll have to pull those out as well.

https://www.fantasticfiction.com/ I find this site very good to check authors and listings of books. I know goodreads does that as well, however fantastic fiction does new release books, which I find very useful.

[Kellene]

Thank you. I'll definitely check it out.

[Kellene]

Halfway through the first set of genre specific books.

[Betsy]

Good job!
