Tracey Hey Jolene, thanks so much for the Goodreads friendship!


Harlequin Books Hello Jolene, it is a pleasure to meet you. If you ever have any questions about Harlequin or our books, please feel free to ask.

Jolene Gutiérrez Hmmm. . .there were times at the beginning when I thought I should've re-read the first, so it might not be a bad idea. But I was so excited to read this one that I just kept reading through and it came back to me. So I think you could go either way. Looking back, because I enjoyed it so much, it might not have been a bad idea to re-read the first to extend the pleasure a bit. ;)
