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 [...]

Sea Witch – Review

"The sea is a fickle witch. She is just as likely to bestow a kiss as to steal the breath from your lips." Evie knows that magic exists. Even if the people in her village would burn anyone claiming to have magic alive. It's just as well that she is isolated. Shunned for her poverty [...]
