Baby Teeth – Review
"People told her those were the hardest times, before a child could speak her needs, but for her they were the easiest." Hanna doesn't speak. She doesn't need to. Not with daddy. He understands her in a way no one else does. Not even Mommy. And that's a problem. For Mommy. Except Suzette may be [...]

Is there anything more murdery than vampires? I mean, they live off of BLOOD!!! Their teeth are stabby! They die by getting stabbed with wood in the heart! And, they live forever.

** This review was originally published on teenreads.com. See it HERE ** Is there a better setting for time-traveling assassins than the brutal and tumultuous Tudor court? Absolutely not.

Sleeping Beauties – Review
"The world didn't seem weird then; the world didn't seem like the world at all, but like another place that you had been flipped into."
