This episode welcomes Lindo Forbes as our guest host for the night so please give her a warm welcome. I don’t think she knew what she was in for when she placed her bid 😆. We auctioned off an episode for Romance for Maui with proceeds going to local Maui organizations to help provide relief due to the wildfires Hawaii is experiencing. Our contribution included some lucky person who could pick a book and then guest host an episode with the two of us crazy ladies. And that lucky (or not as the case may be 😂) is Lindo Forbes.
