Five Plus Plus Stars for Hidden Gem!
Five Plus Plus Stars for Hidden Gem!
N. N. Light loved my book! This is my first review for
Hidden Gem: the Secret of St. Augustine, and it’s a doozy. Here’s a quote:
“Hidden Gem: the Secret of St. Augustine is a
romantic adventure rolled up into a mystery that is one of the best books I've
read this year. It has all the components I crave in an unputdownable read and
then some. M.S. Spencer writes an addictive mystery with quirky characters, a
treasure hunt, all taking place in one of the oldest cities in America.”
