I adored Wanda’s series of books for Barbour and have eagerly awaited her latest release, Shepherd’s Fall. This book is different from her earlier series – there’s no psychic turned Christian and the sidekick is not a police detective. Instead, the star of Shepherd’s Fall is Nick Shepherd, owner of Prodigal Recovery Agency and the lead bounty-hunter. If you have …
A Bride in the Bargain Review
A Bride In The Bargain: You may not know this, but I started reading historical fiction when people told me that A Bride Most Begrudging would change my opinion about the genre being worn out. They were right. And Deeanne has done it again with A Bride in the Bargain. I’m not allowing myself to read much right now because …

A Promise for Spring Review

A Promise for Spring By Kim Vogel Sawyer England-born Emmaline Bradford pledged her life to Geoffrey Garrett and then bid him farewell when he sailed to America. Although Geoffrey anticipated …
Reluctant Cowgirl Review
I read Reluctant Cowgirl last week and loved it. I’ve heard great things about Christine’s writing, even had one of her books sitting in my TBR pile, but never quite got it to the top of the pile. Now I can’t wait to go back and read that one, too. In Reluctant Cowgirl, Crystal McCord has left her hometown in …

City of the Dead Review
City of the Dead is a book that will sweep you back in time to ancient Egypt circa 2500 BC. Like T.L. Higley’s first book in the seven wonders series I let the book linger on my TBR stack a bit. Even though the Shadow of Colossus (SP) swept me back in time and captivated me, I wondered if the …
