Historical Romance Review: The Innocent by Bertrice Small

Posted on April 9, 2021November 10, 2022 by IntrovertReader

It was a bad sign that Bertrice Small’s The Innocent features one of her dullest covers ever. The lone positive was that it was designed as one last created by legendary artist Elaine Duillo for her dear friend Bertrice. 1 star

Posted on April 6, 2021November 11, 2022 by IntrovertReader
