    Still Not Over You by Jenny Frame & Carsen Taite & Ali Vali


    I absolutely love the first novella My Forever Girl by Jenny Frame. Its tone is sad from the beginning yet we feel the immense love and caring between Braydon and Faith. Because of unfortunate circumstances, they are divorced and have been avoiding seeing each other for four years. But their friends invite them on a cruise and force them to share adjacent rooms for two weeks. Melancholy flowed relentlessly through the story as Bray and Faith work to forgive each other and, most importantly, themselves. Frame did not disappoint with this emotional butch-femme story and oh what I would give to have a full length novel of them!

    Country music queen Sophie Roddy probably ruined career after two consecutive drug overdoses.

Growing up with Sophie was not exactly pleasant for Victoria, and she usually keeps everyone at arm’s length to avoid getting hurt worse. But the pull towards Mason was strong, and was the risk of letting her in a right decision?
