A Heart Most Certain by Melissa Jagears My rating: 5 of 5 stars An unabashedly Christian story that isn’t preachy, unrealistic, or predictable. The characters are flawed, not perfect, and not every loose end winds up in a tidy bow. Well done, Melissa Jagears! Lydia King comes from what we’d call today a “dysfunctional” familyContinue reading “A Heart Most Certain”

To Follow Her Heart
To Follow Her Heart by Rebecca DeMarino My rating: 4 of 5 stars The final book in The Southold Chronicles, “To Follow Her Heart” wraps up the story of the Horton family. I highly recommend that you read these stories in order. “A Place in His Heart” and “To Capture Her Heart” are books oneContinue reading “To Follow Her Heart”
Honor Redeemed
Honor Redeemed by Christine Johnson My rating: 4 of 5 stars Another enjoyable historical romance by Christine Johnson! This is book two of her “Keys of Promise” series. One doesn’t need to read “Love’s Rescue” to enjoy “Honor Redeemed,” but since the characters of the first book reappear in the second, it will give moreContinue reading “Honor Redeemed”
Courageous
Courageous by Dina L. Sleiman My rating: 5 of 5 stars Another exciting adventure from Dina Sleiman. This is book three of her “Valiant Hearts” series and I’m hoping we’ll see a book four. (Because we need to know what’s happening to Sadie next, right?) The first is “Dauntless.” The second is “Chivalrous.” All areContinue reading “Courageous”
Like a River From Its Course
Like a River from Its Course by Kelli Stuart My rating: 5 of 5 stars There are so many single words that can describe this book. Deep. Gripping. Raw. Powerful. It’s all of those things. This is the type of story that brings history to life in a way we comprehend it at its mostContinue reading “Like a River From Its Course”

From This Moment
From This Moment by Elizabeth Camden My rating: 3 of 5 stars I’m a big Elizabeth Camden fan. I’ve loved all of her books to date. But I just couldn’t get into this one from the start. The characters didn’t appeal to me. I’m not even sure why, but they didn’t hold my interest. IfContinue reading “From This Moment”
Murder Comes by Mail
Murder Comes by Mail by A.H. Gabhart My rating: 4 of 5 stars Another fine mystery from Ann Gabhart! The characters from Hidden Springs are back for another round of who-done-it. Deputy Michael Keane is wondering why he ever thought Hidden Springs was a sleepy like town. He saves a man from jumping off aContinue reading “Murder Comes by Mail”
The Quieting
The Quieting by Suzanne Woods Fisher My rating: 4 of 5 stars Abigail Stoltzfus is not your typical Amish girl. She’s blunt, one-track minded, overly-organized, and certainly too literal for most. But there’s someone for everyone, even if Abigail doesn’t realize it … yet. David Stoltzfus needs help. His church is crumbling, his house isContinue reading “The Quieting”
