Book Review:  From the Jump by Lacie Waldon

From the Jump by Lacie Waldon is a slow-burn, friends to lovers, romance partly set in Africa and California.  I just loved the long-lasting friendships in this book and the romance and setting. Liv Bakersfield has a nice life, great friends, and a great job.  But something is missing as she still feels lonely.  One […]
