With Love From Lowcountry- Natasha Boyd
You know that book you cannot put down? The story you won’t forget. You never want to forget? As I’ve noted in my review of it, Eversea is exactly that and so much more. A sweet and tender love story of two people from different worlds meeting together to make a world of their own.…
