Reviews
Cover, Velvet in Venice by Karin Kallmaker. A Coin of Love Romance. Banner text It All Started with a Song. "A touch of sapphic magic in a perfect romance.

This is a wonderful romance, strengthening the argument that love happens in an instant, but relationships take time.

All About Covered Hearts

Web Sprite 11/25/2025 Celebrity Spotlight, Creative and Performing Arts, Food Fetish, Magic and Mystic, Novella, Romance, Romance and Chocolate Ink

Random Trivial Things

  • Trivia – Christabel
    The epic poem, after which Karin's Christabel is named, sends a self-appointed knight into the evil, green forest to fight a witch for the soul of a young woman. It is presumed that the young woman wouldn't stay with the witch unless she were under a spell. That script needed flipping.
