Steven and Linda Or rather Devin Tyler, Wesley Stone and Preston Sawyer

I stumbled across this list on someone’s blog and thought it would be worth posting for those interested. I haven’t checked these books out personally so I’m not exactly recommending them but rather listing them as possibilities to check out if you’re looking for ideas. Enjoy!

Compiled by Helen Leibee. The books in bold are very highly recommended.
