David Bergsland’s Reality Calling Posted on August 24, 2016 by David BergslandAugust 24, 2016

I needed the refreshing which comes with a superb Spirit-filled action-adventure romance. For the 3rd time, Guy’s 6-book series does that wonderfully well. Even the third time through, the stories gripped me. The romances are intense, lusty, and compelling. The … Continue reading →
