A Season to Wed: Three Winter Love Stories by Rachel Gauck, Cindy Kirk, and Cheryl Wyatt (review)

Three novellas of romance, set during the Winter, for three couples who must first deal with healing hurts begun as high school students.

A Match in the Making by Jen Turano (review)

One of my favorite things in fiction just might be an experimental bustle scene, as written by Jen Turano. Granted, I’ve never read one by another author, but I don’t think they could top her for the sheer fun of the device. And in To Spark a Match it is one of several mishaps to …

Loyally, Luke by Pepper Basham (audiobook review)

I finally read (but mostly listened to) my first contemporary by Pepper Basham and that I enjoyed the story is no surprise. Loyally, Luke is the third Skymar book, and I was not fully prepared for the delight that is the texts between Luke and his three sisters, the perfection of the grumpy meet-cute between …

The Elusive Truth of Lily Temple by Joanna Davidson Politano (review)

From the gorgeous cover until the final sentence, The Elusive Truth of Lily Temple is a …

Silent Shadows by Natalie Walters (review)

With a lively cast of secondary characters adding to the humor in Silent Shadows, I adore Natalie Walters’ Romantic Christian Suspense that verges into Romantic Comedy territory.  Pecca is a single mother and a nurse at the Home for Heroes, Colton is her newest patient. With a blind-siding meet cute, this is a story filled …

The Price of Valor by Susan May Warren (review

If you are up for a tsunami of a story, The Price of Valor by Susan May Warren should be on your TBR. Third in the Global Search and Rescue series, this is Hamilton and Signe’s reunion story with a good dose of Orion and Jenny along with other characters from Warren’s world of former …
