Yeah my week, or few past weeks have been super duper stressed and crazy so I haven't had much reading or chatting time. Missing all of you :( but I was able to finish Love Me Sweet (Bell Harbor, #3) by Tracy Brogan and it was another cute story for this light, funny, romantic series. I enjoyed it.
