The Innkeeper’s Daughter by Michelle Griep – a review
I am one of those people who claims to not judge a book by its cover. That is mostly true. However, when I saw the cover of The Innkeeper's Daughter and read the book description, I knew that I would be reading this book at some point in time. The time period that Michelle Griep's novel is written (Early 1800s England) is a period I enjoy reading. The cover art drew me in right away. I was sold. Joanna Langley, her mother Eliza, and young brother Thomas own and live in the Blue Hedge Inn in ...

The Firefighter’s Twins | Review & GIVEAWAY
It isn't very often that I start out a review with a desire to simply—right away—share how much I enjoyed a book. Today is one of those days. I enjoyed The Firefighter's Twins by Heidi McCahan! I don't dole out five star reviews like candy; there are a few things that I'm looking for when determining how I rate a book (naturally, my opinion is mine alone and is subjective!). Author Heidi McCahan hit one of those "things" that I look for right away, and I didn't even realize it at first. The ...

The Gift of Christmas Past – a Litfuse Review

The Gift of Christmas Past quickly introduces the reader into the worlds of teenage foster child Hadley and rich teen Monroe. Hadley finds herself in a position that no foster kid wants to be, and she relies on Monroe to help her escape. When the situation ...

Prior to this novel, there's a prequel/novella entitled Then Came You (which is CURRENTLY--as of ...
The Writing Desk – a Rachel Hauck Team Review
This summer has been insane. This review is coming late, late, late, late. I had everything in the world happen at the time I was supposed to review The Writing Desk. Car accident happened. Then Ocular rosacea--corneal inflammation, affected vision--couldn't read without getting a migraine. Both vehicles needed repairs (not at once, though!) and went to the shop. Braces for one child. Four wisdom teeth surgically removed for another child. In five weeks. The last two weeks, I've been working on ...
