We are often reminded of how God works in our lives without our knowledge or request. This is very evident in Caroline Miller’s Rebuilding Hearts. This is the twenty-fourth book in the Independence Island series, the sixth taking place on Sparrow Island, and the fourth that focuses on Greener Garden employees. Tim and Bella are great […]
Restored Grace by Kathleen J. Robison is the second book in her Bay Town series. I have not yet read the first book in the series, but I did not feel I was missing any information as I read the book, although I am sure I probably was. Main character Carol has some things in […]
Sunken ships, beach vibes, contemporary romance, and two very different spiritual journeys harmonize perfectly in From Shore to Shore. You will easily be transported to the island beach and enjoy the waves and sunshine along with deep sea dives to unknown treasures. You will most likely connect with Bree and Connor in one way or […]
The Fragrance of Violets by author Susan K. Beatty is Book 2 in her Faces of Courage Series. This 258 page contemporary Christian fiction for women may easily be read as a standalone book. It is a poignant story that swiftly had me invested in it and the lives of its characters. This novel […]
Stranded on Sparrow is written by Rachel Skatvold. This is book 22 in the Independance Island Series. The series is written by multiple authors and are all tied together by the Independance Island theme. I have been fortunate enough to read the entire series thus far – and they are all amazing. While they can […]

As such, I would note that this story does come to a conclusion without cliffhangers while leaving room for the stories of other characters to potentially be […]
Author Joanne Markey does an excellent job of evoking the sights, sounds, and smells of her native Australia in Persuade Me (Daughters of the Bush, Book 1). Information about the country is sprinkled throughout the story using description and dialogue, giving the impression of a perfectly seasoned dish, such as a character’s comment about dodging […]
Liz Tolsma delivers an engaging story showing the power of a mother’s love in Slashed Canvas. At first glance, Katarina is a character that many people will have little to no sympathy for. However, Tolsma does a beautiful job of growing this character throughout the story. Tenderly. Authentically. Not only does Tolsma provide a […]
It’s hard to know where to start with this book. There are so many cool threads that we could pull on. While managing to be a stand-alone story, it still beautifully furthers past topics and relationships. Like Bertha. I knew there was more to her story than just a mean spirit. And I am so […]
Think old world wonder, fantasy, and combine it with an edgy feistiness and that is how I would describe Madness in the Wonderland by Tabitha Bouldin. It was a vastly different type of character setting than I have ever read before, which only added to its appeal. I was well and truly hooked by the […]
