I was so worried that Just Last Night wouldn’t live up to my inner hype because I have this habit of sticking McFarlane on a pedestal and I’m just hoping that I can keep her up there for forever. I’m thrilled to report that this was everything I hoped for. I sat down and binged this delightful morsel in a day, and may have put off some adulting even after finishing to sit and think about what McFarlane has created. […]

Review: The Heir and the Encha..

I’ve been in love with Hazel since The Earl and the Enchantress and I was so excited to finally delve into her story. Its important to note that this is more of a prologue to the Enchantresses as it details Hazel’s marriage to Harold, Walter’s father. Hazel is a bright eyed, young, and very naïve 17 year old dreaming of love-matches and enticing a kiss from the beau she has set her mind on. I ADORE Walter so it doesn’t […]
