First I would like to congratulate you on your new look. It is light and airy and it is easy to use. I found some of your recommendations helpful. I bought “Branded” . I put “Carter Need” and the full series that includes “Caged” on my wish list. I also picked up “Finding Cinderella” for free. I went and entered the giveaways you have linked. Thank you for those. This has been one of my favorite blogs to visit. Thank you for all the wonderful things you post and offer. <3
