“Hearts like hers” is the second book of the Seven Shores Series by Melissa Brayden, involving lesbians in love in Venice beach, featuring one of the amazing women from the breakfast group at Cat’s Pijamas ran by Autumn. If you have already read “Eyes like those” featuring Isabel and Taylor, you have already met the other amazing lesbian women living in Venice beach : Autumn, Gia and Hadley.

C â teva conversaÈ›ii despre o fată foarte înaltă  este debutul în lungmetraj al regizorului Bogdan Theodor Olteanu È™i va avea premiera pe marile ecrane pe 22 iunie. Câteva conversaÈ›ii despre o fată foarte înaltă  este un film al debuturilor.
