Lovely book and quick delivery
I was pleased with 10% discount on my first purchase and delivery was only a couple of days.
I love Heather Peck's books for not only the continuing storyline ane it may sound corny but the quality is superior to a lot of paperbacks and nice to hold. I would definitely recommend Bitternbooks for their localised selection.
