Melissa Jagears: This or That

There’s something really special about Melissa Jagears writing. I love her historical romances with authentic, flawed, and endearing characters, and her latest, Romancing the Bride, is no exception. I’ve always enjoyed having Melissa visit Relz Reviewz, so it’s great to have her back sharing about her preferences. I hope you enjoy getting to know the writer behind the book and I encourage to invest in this terrific story – you can read my review here, if you need more convincing!
