Book Review: Writing Mr. Wrong

29th Sep 202526th Sep 2025Leave a comment

I know it feels like I basically only read Kelley Armstrong these days...and you wouldn't be wrong. I'm not sure how she churns out so many books in a year, but I love it, and I hope she keeps the books coming at this breakneck pace.

We are now on book four of Kelley Armstrong's "Rip Through Time" series—and if we include the fact that there are least two novellas, I have visited these characters many times over the past few years. I feel deeply immersed in the world and am excited to see where Mallory, Duncan, Isla and Hugh take … Continue reading Book Review: Death At A Highland Wedding
