Hoping for another Karma Marx book. The two book series is delightful but needs more books.
Will there ever be another Aisling Grey book? I loved the stories and all the trouble she got in and out of and I loved the reader. Please write another one.
(POTENTIAL SPOILERS AHEAD)
Is there another book featuring Ben and Fran? We’re left with a cliffhanger when she’s just found her half-sister, her mom is unconscious and Ben’s blood brother is missing. WE need to know the rest of the story.
