Joshua’s Mission by Vannetta Chapman My rating: 4 of 5 stars The publisher calls this novel a romance, but it has a lot more in it than the typical romance does. Many of the main characters are Amish, but it’s not your typical Amish book either. I found it very refreshing! Joshua Kline’s younger brotherContinue reading “Joshua’s Mission”

Hannah’s Choice
Hannah’s Choice by Jan Drexler My rating: 5 of 5 stars I love a story that keeps me guessing – and this one does! Jan Drexler paints a very tranquil setting in 1840s Pennsylvania, with creeks and farms and orchards. What could go wrong in such a place? Human tragedy and human choices, that’s what.Continue reading “Hannah’s Choice”

Where She Belongs by Johnnie Alexander My rating: 4 of 5 stars What is a contemporary romance that centers on the past? An interesting story! Johnnie Alexander does a wonderful job of combining the present with the past to create a complex and heartwarming tale.

Merchant of Alyss
Merchant of Alyss by Thomas Locke My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is the second book in the “Legends of the Realm” series by Thomas Locke. The first one – “The Emissary” – came out over a year ago. I wish I had re-read that book before reading this one. As is the caseContinue reading “Merchant of Alyss”
Thin Ice
Thin Ice by Irene Hannon My rating: 4 of 5 stars This book was different than most of my reads. The underlying romance is wonderful. Just the type of hero who grabs your imagination. Just the type of heroine who grabs your sympathy. The suspense in the story is page-turning, no doubt. Christy Reed hasContinue reading “Thin Ice”
A Worthy Heart
A Worthy Heart by Susan Anne Mason My rating: 5 of 5 stars I’d been anticipating this book since finishing the first in the series, Irish Meadows. Susan Anne Mason did not disappoint! She picked up where the first book left off and expanded the saga of this Irish family in early 1900s New York.Continue reading “A Worthy Heart”
Killing Reagan
Killing Reagan: The Violent Assault That Changed a Presidency by Bill O’Reilly My rating: 2 of 5 stars I was disappointed in this book. Perhaps because I’ve read several biographies on Ronald Reagan, or perhaps because I’d read O’Reilly’s “Killing Jesus” and thought it was an interesting and well laid out book. This one wasContinue reading “Killing Reagan”
A Thousand Shall Fall
A Thousand Shall Fall by Andrea Boeshaar My rating: 4 of 5 stars I love a good Civil War series and the Shenandoah Valley Saga caught my eye. This is the first book, but book two is teased at the end and I’m already looking forward to reading that one. A Thousand Shall Fall isContinue reading “A Thousand Shall Fall”
Until the Dawn
Until The Dawn by Elizabeth Camden My rating: 5 of 5 stars Elizabeth Camden delivers again! If you loved “Beauty and the Beast” as a child, you’ll enjoy this story. No, the hero isn’t a true beast, but he certainly could play the part at times. The heroine is a beauty, however, both inside andContinue reading “Until the Dawn”
Plum Pudding Bride
Plum Pudding Bride by Anne Garboczi Evans My rating: 5 of 5 stars This short romantic romp will fit into anyone’s busy Christmas schedule. Patience Callahan longs for a husband full of action and daring-do. Her perfect hero will match those in her favorite classic novels. And that doesn’t include mild-mannered storekeeper Peter Foote. He’sContinue reading “Plum Pudding Bride”
