It’s not my all-time favorite of hers, but thisContinue reading “In the Shadow of the River”

Borne by Love
Borne by Love by Jericha Kingston My rating: 5 of 5 stars I was able to read an early copy of this Jericha Kington novel. It’s romantic suspense with a huge twist – a surrogate pregnancy. Something I knew nothing about that until I read this book. Beautiful story, wonderful characters, and enough suspense toContinue reading “Borne by Love”
As Silent as the Night
As Silent as the Night by Danielle Grandinetti My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is my first time reading something by author Danielle Grandinetti, and I would definitely read more by her.

A Cord of Three Strands
A Cord of Three Strands by Christy Distler My rating: 5 of 5 stars Stories set in Colonial America are few and far between anymore, and books featuring Quakers are even rarer.

An Uncommon Woman
An Uncommon Woman by Laura Frantz My rating: 5 of 5 stars I bought this book right after it came out – two years ago!

The Rebel Bride
The Rebel Bride by Shannon McNear My rating: 5 of 5 stars I’ve read most of Shannon McNear’s books, but I think this one is her best. The setting, the characters, and the tension derived from split loyalties during the Civil War lead to a real page-turner. I enjoyed the story, even the secondary charactersContinue reading “The Rebel Bride”

Byway to Danger by Sandra Merville Hart My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is a lovely conclusion to the series showcasing a pair of dedicated and compassionate people who risk everything to help end the war and slavery.

Calla and Sienna Rose spend two years in an orphanage – even though they aren’t orphans. Their mother isContinue reading “When the Meadows Blooms”
Carved in Stone
Carved in Stone by Elizabeth Camden My rating: 4 of 5 stars I loved Elizabeth Camden’s early novels, but then I read a few that didn’t interest me much. This book was a choice I picked from a reading challenge on Goodreads. I’m so glad I did! It’s a well-written story about a woman fromContinue reading “Carved in Stone”
