You’re the Cream in My Coffee by Jennifer Lamont Leo My rating: 5 of 5 stars What a fun story! It’s not a traditional boy-meets-girl romance. I haven’t read many stories set in the flapper era, but I really enjoyed this. The writing is fresh and the characters are likable. I’m looking forward to JenniferContinue reading “You’re the Cream in My Coffee”

Too Deep for Words
Too Deep for Words by Andrea Boeshaar My rating: 5 of 5 stars Too Deep for Words is a continuation of A Thousand Shall Fall. The story picks up just days after the end of the first book, so I highly recommend reading these in order. Carrie Ann Collier has matured in this second book. WeContinue reading “Too Deep for Words”
A Moonbow Night
A Moonbow Night by Laura Frantz My rating: 5 of 5 stars What can I say? Laura Frantz hits another one out of the park. Why do I love Laura’s books? Her characters are fresh, interesting, non-stereotypical, likable, and completely believable. They aren’t perfect, they aren’t two-dimensional, they are deep, rounded, and fascinating. Her settingsContinue reading “A Moonbow Night”
A Heart Set Free
A Heart Set Free by Janet S. Grunst My rating: 5 of 5 stars A lovely tale set in Colonial America. Heather Douglas sells herself into indentured servitude to pay for her crossing from Scotland to the British Colonies in America. She’s running from her past and will do anything to start over somewhere else.Continue reading “A Heart Set Free”
To the Farthest Shores
To the Farthest Shores by Elizabeth Camden My rating: 4 of 5 stars I love historical novels that teach me something about history. In this story, I learned about the U.S. Government’s MID program and the beginnings of cultured pearl farming. I knew nothing about either of them. Score! Jenny Bennett is a very qualifiedContinue reading “To the Farthest Shores”
Sunset in Old Savannah
Sunset in Old Savannah by Mary Ellis My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is book #4 in Secrets of the South Mysteries. I’ve enjoyed them all, but this one is my favorite so far. And the good news is, you really don’t need to read these in order. They do fine as stand aloneContinue reading “Sunset in Old Savannah”
Secrets & Charades
Secrets and Charades by Cindy Ervin Huff My rating: 5 of 5 stars Delightful story with colorful characters and enough action to keep the reader turning the pages. Evangeline Olsen is a strong woman, a lady doctor with a painful past. Jake Marcum wants a wife to help him raise his niece. The two comeContinue reading “Secrets & Charades”
The Planter’s Daughter
The Planter’s Daughter by Michelle Shocklee My rating: 4 of 5 stars I love Civil War era stories and this one stands out to me because of its setting. It takes place in Texas. While that state played a part in the Civil War, it doesn’t garner a lot of attention in historical fiction. WeContinue reading “The Planter’s Daughter”
Murder is No Accident
Murder is No Accident by A.H. Gabhart My rating: 5 of 5 stars Another charming tale from Hidden Springs with all the characters we’ve learned to love from Murder at the Courthouse and Murder Comes by Mail. Ann Gabhart hit a home run with this series, and I actually hope she’s not done. I’d loveContinue reading “Murder is No Accident”
Redeeming Grace
Redeeming Grace: Ruth’s Story by Jill Eileen Smith My rating: 5 of 5 stars Another wonderful Biblical fiction story from Jill Eileen Smith, quite possibly her best yet. I love how she paints the Biblical settings with everything from what the landscape would look like to what the people would eat and wear. She doesContinue reading “Redeeming Grace”
