Hi, I'm Mara, a former teacher and academic who's finally pursuing her dream career as an author.

Hush Little Angel is my favorite from Pauline so far! This may be a crazy thing to say about a dark romance, but this book is absolutely delightful. FMC Winnie, like most of Pauline's FMCs, is strong and straightforward. She's a "treat me right and y ...more

I absolutely loved this book! MMC Callahan is perfection and FMC Olivia real and relatable, but it's the side characters who steal the show. Found family is a main theme of the story and these folks will give you the warmest fuzzies, even in the mids ...more

In some ways, book three of the Talisman's of Teregrin series is a bit of a breather, in others, it's the intensest book yet.

I loved the extra emphasis on the interpersonal relationships in this story, messy as they are. These are teens and they act
