The synopsis doesn’t reveal very much so I’m not going to either. As this author is an auto read for me, I dove right in and was immediately drawn in until the finish. It didn’t disappoint. Simply stated, this is the story of Rhett Bennett and Ainsley Rose. He’s her brother’s best friend, business… Continue reading Blog Tour: Just Love by Prescott Lane
