Baltimore, MD

Hi! I’m moving and am purging my bookshelf. Any Baltimore romantasy readers who would like this stack of free books? They’ve all been read once, but are in good shape and include all three Mass/Crescent City books. I’d prefer to give them all to one person. Pick up near Patterson Park! Comment or DM if you’re interested!
