Book Review: Kristen Callihan’s Moonglow
I received this book for free from in exchange for an honest review.

The couple focus is on the newly widowed Daisy Margaret née Ellis Craigmore and Ian Ranulf, Marquis of Northrup. My Take Ach, it’s a sad thing for a man. When he can no longer get it up.

In my early years, my mother chose them for me and then I picked up a few in school, mainly because we were in the same place at the same time. Naturally I ended up with the ones that were the best fit for me but that doesn’t always make it a good choice. As I got older, my tastes became more sophisticated and so I chose a more sophisticated type of friend, but seriously? This from a woman who obsessed over ankle warmers and shoulder pads??
