Book Review: A Gilded Lady

July 20, 2020July 20, 2020Leave a comment

Alright fellow readers, I just finished reading  book two in Elizabeth Camden's Hope and Glory series (Actually, I had a sewing project so I was listening to the audio - and the narrator was awesome). If I haven't said it before, I'll say it now - this lady always includes the most fascinating history in her … Continue reading Book Review: A Gilded Lady

Book Review: The Spice King

October 3, 2019October 3, 20191 Comment

First of all, can I just say - THIS COVER! How often do we get to see the hero instead of the heroine featured on the cover? I just think it's so unique! I love it. And not only is the cover amazing, but the story completely measures up. Elizabeth Camden is on a short … Continue reading Book Review: The Spice King

Book Review: The Alamo Bride

March 13, 2019March 13, 2019Leave a comment

This is actually one of the first Christian Romances I've ever read that featured the Alamo. The last one to even mention it that I read was Karen Witemeyer's Short Straw Bride (all of the men were named after famous people/places from the Alamo). So when it was released, I was curious to see how … Continue reading Book Review: The Alamo Bride

Book Review: The Sky Above Us

February 11, 2019February 11, 20191 Comment

Eek! Another Sarah Sundin book! And I’m loving where she’s going with this series! After a nice long car trip, I finally reached the end of the second installment and I can’t wait until the third book is out (which... patience, the second only just released!) Facing the past may be the most fearsome battle … Continue reading Book Review: The Sky Above Us

Book Review: A Desperate Hope

December 26, 2018January 25, 2019Leave a comment

This one will keep you up late, folks. I read the first book in The Empire State novels, A Dangerous Legacy, and loved it, so when this one came up for review, I was excited to take it on. And in true obsessive-reader fashion - especially with a book that has good tension - it … Continue reading Book Review: A Desperate Hope

Book Review: A Bound Heart

December 22, 2018Leave a comment

Okay. First off. I loved this book. Really loved it. Could-not-put-it-down status loved it. And second, if you've been seeing ads for Outlander all over your social media, but wondered if there was a book out there that had some of the same history, but maybe written for a different audience... THIS IS IT. Though … Continue reading Book Review: A Bound Heart

Book Review: A Song Unheard

October 16, 2018October 16, 20181 Comment

Since I read A Name Unknown, I've been looking forward to reading A Song Unheard. Roseanna M. White is quickly becoming one of my new favorite writers. Her stories are engaging, the romances are interesting, and her messages are fitting. As I'm finishing this review, I'm beginning to read An Hour Unspent. If It's anything … Continue reading Book Review: A Song Unheard

Book Review: The Patriot Bride

September 21, 2018September 21, 20181 Comment

At 5:08am, my phone started to buzz. It's been ringing off the hook the last few days as I've been finishing the process for substitute teaching. But once it rang, I was awake, which led me to think, "Why not finish off that book you've been reading?" And so, it was in the early hours … Continue reading Book Review: The Patriot Bride

Book Review: The Captured Bride

September 8, 2018September 8, 2018Leave a comment

Several months ago, someone recommended Michelle Griep's The Captive Heart and it was such a great story about colonial America, native relations and indentured servants. It resonated with me and reminded me of other great reads from the period. So when I got the opportunity to review The Captured Bride, I was looking forward to it. … Continue reading Book Review: The Captured Bride

Book Review: The Sea Before Us

August 30, 2018August 30, 2018Leave a comment

I was looking forward to reading this book from the moment I heard about it. Her last few series have been centered around B-19 pilots, the Nightingales, the WAVES, and now, three brothers, estranged before the war and brought together by an event: D-Day. And so begins the first book, The Sea Before Us, from … Continue reading Book Review: The Sea Before Us
