Sassy Saturday Blog Hop

Once again its time for Miss Jasmine’s Sassy Saturday Blog Hop. Please check out the other people on the hop! Today’s installment comes once again from the Last Call: Denouement.   Kelsey turned back to Mina. “Speaking of bitching, what has Nana in a tizzy?” “A boy at our place.” Mina shook her head, remembering […]
