True North - TA Moore

Genre: Holiday, Fantasy, Mystery, Romance LGBTQ+ Category: Gay Reviewer: Maryann Get It On Amazon About The Book Despite what his co-workers say Belling, Montana paramedic Dylan Hollie does not hate Christmas.

He’s even sourced an available one locally in the taciturn Somerset North and his impossibly blue eyes. So … Read more
