A Rancher to Trust by Laurel Blount My rating: 5 of 5 stars I don’t read a lot of contemporary romances because my heart lies with the historicals, but I picked up a copy of this one and gave it a try. After all, who doesn’t like a handsome rancher hero, right? This story wasContinue reading “A Rancher to Trust”

Jeremy Poldark
Jeremy Poldark by Winston Graham My rating: 5 of 5 stars It’s official. I’m hooked on this series! This one, like Demelza, was followed very closely by the TV series. I could “see” the actors in the scenes as I was reading. But it goes deeper – as books do – into the thoughts behindContinue reading “Jeremy Poldark”
Demelza
Demelza by Winston Graham My rating: 5 of 5 stars I liked this book even better than Ross Poldark, the first book in the series. That may be because the TV series followed this book more closely, but for whatever reason, it was wonderful. There are differences between the TV series and the books, mostlyContinue reading “Demelza”
Three Little Things
Three Little Things by Patti Stockdale My rating: 5 of 5 stars This book gets my #1 Best Cover award. Seriously – look at that cover! Endorsed by Debbie Macomber, received a positive review by Publishers Weekly, you can’t go wrong with this one. It’s a lovely WWI romance inspired by the love letters writtenContinue reading “Three Little Things”
Ross Poldark
Ross Poldark by Winston Graham My rating: 5 of 5 stars Loved it! Such a great way to finish off watching the Masterpiece Theater series. There are differences between the two, most notably, there are many more characters in the book version. And – of course – no matter how Winston Graham described Ross, he’llContinue reading “Ross Poldark”

The Words Between Us
The Words Between Us by Erin Bartels My rating: 3 of 5 stars I liked this book better than the author’s debut. It’s women’s fiction, told from one person’s point of view, and hops back and forth between the person’s past and present. It’s interesting and the author handles the transitions well, so it’s easyContinue reading “The Words Between Us”
The Highlanders
The Highlanders: A Smitten Historical Romance Collection by J’nell Ciesielski My rating: 5 of 5 stars If you enjoy stories with a Scottish tang, then these four novellas are your next “must read.” Two are set in the old country, and two on America’s shores, but all of them include a Highlander you’ll be sweptContinue reading “The Highlanders”
Misleading Miss Verity
Misleading Miss Verity by Carolyn Miller My rating: 3 of 5 stars I enjoyed a lot about this book. The characters are interesting and believable, the setting is beautifully written, and the writing is good. The ending, however, fell apart for me. That could very well be just a personal preference, so I’m still givingContinue reading “Misleading Miss Verity”
Snug-Fitting Fingerless Mitts
This pattern is for my author friends and others who spend too much time at the keyboard on cold winter days. These fingerless mitts have nothing between the fingers and are made to fit snuggly so that they don’t interfere with the keyboard or mouse. And with no fancy stitching … they knit up inContinue reading “Snug-Fitting Fingerless Mitts”
