Reviews and Translations

Painted Moon is a classic that could very well become the next Curious Wine.
-- Lesbian Review of Books


Painted Moon has what this reader considers classic Kallmaker elements with interesting characters, wry wit and steamy love scenes. (Some of the images of Jackie and Leah have lingered in my mind for years.) If you missed this title the first time around, or if you are new to Kallmaker's novels, pick up a copy of Painted Moon and bask its glow.
-- Midwest Book Review


A classic Kallmaker romance -- as steamy as readers like it to be.
