I loved Logan and Charlotte’s story!! Logan was super protective of everyone he cared about. I loved that when he saw Charlotte was wearing her mother’s ring, he dashed to her rescue as he had done when they were younger. Despite the fact they hadn’t spoken for years. He is […]

With just a hint of romance, The Emperor’s Aeronaut adds a steampunk twist to the Napoleonic Wars as Celeste and Loveday defy convention and seek to build an airship together.

I’ve enjoyed getting to know the Duke family through the Desert Justice series. Death Valley Hideout is Willow’s story, though with this close-knit family, that only means that she has a little more air-time than her protective brothers and cousin. While I enjoy stories with strong heroines, I’m partial to […]

An Alaskan Secret is a sweet story of second chances. Reading the synopsis, I was led to wonder how on earth a mother could not know about her child, and, honestly, my skepticism was part of my motivation for wanting to read the book. The other reason is that I […]

It was such a treat to revisit friends from the Heirloom Secrets series and meet new ones in Where the Last Rose Blooms! It’s bittersweet the series has concluded, but so good to have a satisfying ending for Rose’s story. My favorite aspect of this book was the clever method […]
