The Duchess Deal by Tessa Dare

I am so excited about this new series by Tessa Dare! I love her books.


Y'all! I have some exciting news! After ten years, I am FINALLY going on vacation! You heard that right - Alyssa is finally letting herself relax, for a little over a week. But I have scheduled blog posts to publish every day for the next ten days, so I'm all set. Please please please pardon the lack of comments over that time period! I will catch up and shower everyone with comments when I come back. 

In the meantime, you can enter my massive giveaway!
