Lifelines is a republishing of Eleanor Bertin’s first novel. It is the first full-length story I have read by her, though I have read several of her novellas in various Mosaic Collection anthologies. I remember them as quite thought-provoking. I loved Anna! This dear widow seemed unable to not spread […]
What a wonderful story to start the year with! Having loved the previous books in the Grace-by-the-Sea series, I am so glad it’s not over yet! The people of this lovely English village have captured my attention – and my heart. They are troubled by the mere 40 miles that […]
I spent such a delightful day getting to know Georgana and Dominic! Georgana’s Secret engaged so many of my emotions! Hope, fear, disappointment, jubilation. It was not what I was expecting and yet it was everything I had hoped… The events that had driven Georgana and her father to perpetuate […]
Oh, how easy it is to be deceived! So many things are not as they appear. The Thief of Blackfriars Lane has so many examples of this. The bumbling, newly hired constable. The thief who so cunningly acquired the constable’s money, the … Sorry – can’t give too much away […]
When I “met” Cordelia, I felt like she was modeled after me! Other than her being the daughter of a plantation owner in a different century and some other finicky details. But her love for people, stories, and romance, her ability to see beyond what is visible into the “perhaps”, […]
Blue and Thomas had the sweetest relationship as children!! I loved the way she did all she could to distract him from the disaster that his parents were and the way he would do anything for her. Even kiss a frog… Her propensity to write scripts for him to act […]
I love meeting debut authors! However, it is often difficult to discern whether a book by an unknown author will be a clean read without a recommendation – which is always a priority of mine. I was intrigued by the synopsis of The Meet-Cute Project and therefore decided to give […]
Full of rich emotions and characters of depth, Everything Behind Us shows what can happen when we surrender fully to God’s will and do what He directs us to do; what we know is right, even when it is the most difficult choice. When all of Connor’s family discouraged him […]
“I am the Good Shepherd. My sheep know my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.” Having read this verse, Madysen was determined to teach her sheep to know her voice. This was just one of the parallels in Endless Mercy to Jesus, our shepherd. One that especially […]
Heartwarming and humorous. Both are great descriptions for Nicole. I loved Drew’s playfulness and the way he enjoyed finding ways to push her buttons. Not unkindly – he just knew the subjects she was passionate about and brought them up in conversation – taking the opposite side than she would. […]
Jack was so ready to wipe the dust of the small town he grew up in off his feet and start fresh in a place where his past didn’t confront him every day. And when he unexpectedly becomes a single dad, things really get complicated. I liked the way Laramie […]
There is so much to love about For the Love of Joy! Loveable main characters? Check Compelling plot? Check Cute toddler? Check Witty dialog? Check Strong faith message? Check and check! I knew when first introduced to Davis in earlier books in the Coastal Hearts series that I wanted to […]
