Sugar Lips

And it’s not just his credentials that make me feel shaken up...it’s also his mouth-watering good looks. I absolutely can’t let myself get distracted by him, though. There’s too much at stake. But it’s getting harder...and harder...to...concentrate... SUGAR LIPS is a fun, short, Halloween romance with steam, sweetness, and a happily-ever-after!
