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.

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”

Lady in the Mist by Laurie Alice Eakes My rating: 4 of 5 stars This book has moldered in my Kindle for years – literally – and I finally opened it. So glad I did!

Practically Married
Practically Married by Karin Beery My rating: 5 of 5 stars I loved this book! It’s a modern marriage of convenience story that works because the characters are engaging, practical, and have their personal issues to deal with.

Legacy Restored
Legacy Restored by Robin Patchen My rating: 5 of 5 stars Classic Robin Patchen! Plenty of unexpected things happen when an ex-con and an artist team up – accidentally – to bring down a murderer.
