Told only from Savannah’s perspective, Meet Me in the Margins gives a fun glimpse into the world of a hopeful debut author. What a fun story! While I would have loved to hear the thoughts of the mystery editor to know why he did some of the things he did, […]
Hauntingly melancholic with glimmers of hope, The Gold in These Hills is a poignant story of broken lives mended. This time-split novel finds Johnny piecing together his shattered life and heart. And Juniper (June) struggling simply to survive. I would be hard-pressed to choose a favorite character. Each one was […]
The perfect length for reading on a lazy Saturday, Aftermath blends suspense, faith, and romance into a story I didn’t want to put down. Told from the perspectives of four people whose lives were rocked by an explosion at the political rally Dustin was framed for, the story held its […]
At one of the companies I worked for, the guys loved to play practical jokes on each other. The one-upmanship was intense at times but always done in fun. I had never set out to partake in the fun – even after becoming a “victim” of their attention. One of […]

How Sweet It Is is indeed a sweet story of faith. I loved how Holly, in the midst of the pain over the loss of her fiancé, reached out to the women in the local shelter, caring for them and teaching them life skills. She was so fun, too, with […]
Intrigue and espionage abound in this World War II adventure. Kat, a proper English lady, finds herself in occupied France, living in an apartment paid for by her sister’s lover, a Nazi officer. As she attempts to influence her sister to return home without alienating her, she becomes embroiled in […]
If you have not yet read Love and Other Mistakes, you should probably pick up a copy and read that before reading this review or synopsis… You may remember Kimberly, the annoyingly perfect woman who competed with Natalie for the internship in Love and Other Mistakes. And you will, of […]
