It’s an audiobook code giveaway-palooza to close out 2023. Nine stories are up for grabs!

#audible #itunes #audiobook #lesbianromance #wlwaudio#giveawaySapphic Romance

Kallmaker's pandemic book, but it wasn't heavy, even if there were echoes of the despair and darkness of that period. Highly recommended!

A great job of blending humor with the realities of life, like smeared makeup when you want to be sexy and limbs that fall asleep...

As a journalist, and an environmental one at that with a degree in science, this novel grabbed me hook, line and sinker.

Random Shiny Things

  • Captain of Industry at Lambda Literary Review
    Captain of Industry is subtle and engaging, a Kallmaker love story with the kind of angst to which we can probably all relate.
  • Reader Comments about Sugar
    The dialogue is probably the best I have read by this author and she excels at snappy dialogue.
