Legacy of Honor by Renae Brumbaugh Green – Book Review
Emma dealt with the grief over her mother’s death. Riley searched for peace. Emma’s spunk was delightful! When her new employer grossly insulted her, she refused to kowtow and just quit! I loved the way she stood up for herself and for what was right and good! When Emma met […]
Jocelyn by Sarah Monzon – Book Review
Motivated by the fear of hunger and need, Jocelyn wasn’t exactly living her dream. She was content, however, or at least thought she was until she discovered what life outside of San Diego looked like… I had a lot of fun reading this! Jocelyn was so cute, the way she […]
Alexandra’s Appeal by Hallee Bridgeman – Book Review
Alexandra’s Appeal is a faith-filled story as it shows Jon’s struggles with understanding God when he looks at tragedy in the world. And as Alexandra accidentally attends a Messianic service thinking it was a Jewish Shabbat service and hears a message making a correlation between the prophecies about the Messiah […]
The Librarian of Boone’s Hollow by Kim Vogel Sawyer – Book Review
The Librarian of Boone’s Hollow is such a beautiful story of faith, hope, and love! I loved the way that both Addie and Emmett clung tightly to their faith and the things their parents had taught them. Each showed strength of character when faced with superstition, prejudice, and suspicion. Told […]
A Life Once Dreamed by Rachel Fordham – Book Review
By the time I was finished reading, I had a tear or two in my eyes from the sweetness of this lovely story told through letters, journal entries, and beautiful narrative. As much as I love boy-next-door stories, I especially love historical boy-next-door-stories! Not only is A Life Once Dreamed […]

Relentless Heart by Jennifer Lynn Cary – Book Review, Preview
I absolutely love the Biblical account of Ruth! The way this young woman followed her mother-in-law into a country that was not only foreign to her but also was most likely hostile towards her. What motivated her to follow Naomi? How did the people of Israel treat her? Her kindness […]
At Love’s Command by Karen Witemeyer – Book Review, Preview
The Hanger’s Horsemen series started out with a bang! The four equestrians are a band of ex-cavalry soldiers for hire to right wrongs. These honorable men have a secret, though. They have determined to use their guns but not to kill – whenever possible. When one of the four is […]
When I Lost My Way by Jennifer Rodewald – Book Review, Preview
Flooding my heart with rich emotions, When I Lost My Way is such a beautiful story of grace! I’m constantly amazed at how Jennifer Rodewald can convey such depth and wisdom in her stories. Lance and Sophie are polar opposites. He is very serious and slightly socially awkward. She is […]

As the middle of three sisters, I loved having teachers in school who knew my older sister! She was always smart, well behaved, and a bit of a perfectionist. And all the teachers loved her! So when I walked into classes on the first day of school, I often heard […]
