This week I’m joined by author, Lucy Mitchell. Her new novel, Every Time We Touch was published by Boldwood Books on 23 May 2026.

I love reading people’s posts, but I’m not good at posting my own or when and how to share the things others put up. I fully intended to take part in the #RomFicFeb26 initiative,… Continue reading #RomFicFeb26
