I read this book on a Sunday afternoon. It’s my favorite time to just sit and devour a whole book. I like the vulnerable yet strong heroine, Emily McCarthy; as well as the brash yet gentlemanly hero, Luke Sullivan. They both make a physical and religious move through the course of the story. At times [...]

Letters From Sweetwater by Dr. Dale Garland
I’ve only made it half way through Letters from Sweetwater. I have to admit that I’ll probably shelf it because I have other books I’d rather read. It has the promise of a good story, but reads more like a biography. Plus it is 438 pages with a lot of characters. It would fit better [...]
Two Books By Francena Arnold
Several years ago my friend was saying how much she loved these books. It has been years since I read them so I ordered them through PaperBackSwap and let them sit on the shelf for a couple years. Last week I read through Not My Will and it’s sequel The Light in My Window by Francena Arnold. [...]
Dark In The City of Light by Paul Robertson
I did not read this whole book. I started, skipped the whole middle, and finished the end. If you are a history buff you might like to dive into Dark In The City Of Light. It has a lot of facts and history and detail so I’m sure Paul Robertson did a lot of work. [...]
Refuge On Crescent Hill By Melanie Dobson
The basic story line in this book is great. The Underground Railroad has always intrigued me plus there are secret tunnels, mysteries, greed, family secrets, etc. About 1/3 of the way through it felt like it was really moving slow. I was ready for it to get on with the excitement. Then everything kind of [...]
Deanne Gist’s New Book, Maid To Match
The more Deanne writes the better I like her. I don’t know if that means I’m getting used to her or she’s getting better. What to say about Maid to Match? I like the overall story line. Tillie aspires to be a lady’s maid. At first we see only the good side – she would travel, [...]
Finding Jeena By Miralee Ferrell
This book has an interesting story line. I can’t think of another book that it is similar to. I would enjoy a continuation that included the same characters as this one. So many of the unique characters seem to have a whole story in them. The heroine goes from riches to rags, and from rottenness [...]
Kim Vogel Sawyer Writes Of A Hopeful Heart
Elements of this book that I liked: semi-mail order bride, not promised before hand, teaching and learning, a bit of mystery – and cattle rustlers, salvation, God’s love, reaping what you sow, how hard the wives of ranchers worked, lesson on not lumping a group of people into the same category. It was easy to [...]
Finished the Dreamhouse Kings Series
This series is closer to the science fantasy genre. The King’s house has a special upstairs hallway that captures time portals through which they can travel to the future or the past. Problem is, the bad guys can use them also and their archenemy has figured out how to use the portals to his advantage. [...]
The Anonymous Bride by Vickie McDonough
I’m not sure if I like The Anonymous Bride or not. It’s a fine book just not my favorite. I do know that I don’t care for the cover picture at all. The story idea is a bit of a twist on the old stand by mail order bride plot. Again, fine but not exhilarating. The [...]
