I read one of Denise Hunter’s books last year, Honeysuckle Dreams, and I enjoyed the characters and writing style. Denise is kicking off a new series featuring a new family and setting with Lake Season, which is book one in the Bluebell Inn Romance series. Levi, Molly, and Grace’s parents’ unexpectedly die in a […]
It’s rare that I enjoy a book so thoroughly that takes place in several different time periods, and author Kristy Cambron has exceeded my expectations in The Painted Castle. Focusing on a centuries old manor in the English countryside and the people who inhabit the beautiful spaces, three different time periods are covered: modern […]
Thrillers and suspense novels are my go-to reads these days, and I definitely enjoy a good one involving spies, espionage, and so much danger that you don’t know who you can trust. State of Lies definitely has all of that covered and more. Georgie is a brilliant scientist, but she is a bit too […]
Honeysuckle Dreams is a great novel about friends entering into a marriage of convenience, and in this case it’s so a father can gain custody of the child that he thought was his from his now deceased ex-wife. I’ve never read a Denise Hunter book, but I was instantly drawn into the small southern community […]

Her debut was full of family ties and complexities, and a heaping of self-discovery, all a charming Southern setting. I went into her second novel, Hurricane Season, with high expectations and I was not let down. Following sisters […]
The Man He Never Was had an interesting blurb–a reimagined Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in a Christian fiction setting where the main character Toren Daniels is a man on the precipice of disaster. A former NFL football player who was well-known for his explosive temper, Toren disappeared eight months earlier and no one has […]
The promise of world travel and an emotional journey for the characters what drew me to The Heart Between Us, and I really enjoyed this story of estranged twin sisters traveling together. While this is a Christian fiction book, the heavier questions about trusting God and believing that he had plans for the characters didn’t really show up […]
After reading such heavy, dark books that I’ve tackled lately, I needed a book that was as fun, emotionally healing, and loving as The Hideaway. Lauren K. Denton’s debut is a knockout–full of family ties, self-discovery, a little bit of mystery and romance, and a bunch of digging into your family’s past to find out […]
