Review:
Short and sweet. Mark and Jamie were so sweet. I like it very. I really love it how Jamie was not making fun of Mark when box dropet all content on floor. He was pretty chill and respectful. Heck he even ask to be Mark exeriment for hus exploring gay world. To me unfortunatly Jamie have more story and bacground than Mark. Which is sad. I would love to have equally good charcters but nop Jamie was more deaply created.

Review:
I didn't read lesbian romance for quite some time. Yes they are sometimes in other books I read but not as main charcters. Historical romance is genra i enjoy more and more but historical lesbian is new. I was kind of afraid of not liking it but I did. It was good and will continue the series

Trip  (shardsofromance) | 2210 comments Thanks Darkness, checked us in 😊

MountainKat | 31598 comments I've not checked your completions, probably tomorrow.

Here is your next task!

Task 11 - 68. Read a minimum of 1200 pages in books with one word titles.

Books selected for this task need to have one word titles, articles and exclamations included. So books such as NautiCal would work, but books like The Thief would not. Remember to use the first edition Kindle page count.
