Shadows of Lancaster County
Before you pick up Shadows of Lancaster County, make sure you have a block of time to read it. This book is a delightful rush: the present twists into the past in a way that pulled me through from page one to the end, the pages flipping ever faster as the end neared. When Anna’s brother vanishes from the genetics …

The Motions by Matthew West
God’s challenging me to quit doing things simply because I can or because people expect me to. A challenge for this people-pleaser, type-A. I don’t want to wonder how my life would be if I gave everything to the things that matter rather than simply going through the expected motions. God, take me all the way in the path You …

The dream would go to the back burner and simmer for another couple years before it would reach a boiling point again. At the same time I …
Thanks, Mom!

She wrote a page-turner that whisked me away to the Revolutionary War but on the frontier. Wind Dancer is a dramatic, …

She has a new book releasing right now — and it’s a truly enjoyable suspense. If you’ve read her historicals, it’s a bit different because it is set during modern times, but it has …

One is a vampire book without a vampire 🙂 and the other is a legal suspense/thriller by a relatively new author. I enjoyed both books but for very different reasons… Dean Man’s Rule, Rick Acker’s debut novel, is a fast-paced, …
