Title: Painting Kisses Author: Melanie Jacobson Narrator: Aubrey Warner Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 18 mins Language: English Release date: 02-03-17 Publisher: Covenant Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 8 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Lia Carswell is good at what she does - even if it isn't as glamorous as her old life in Manhattan. The popular waitress works hard in a small Salt Lake City diner, with the goal of easing her sister's financial strain. And with her witty personality and good looks, she's something of an enigma to the male customers who vie for her attention. Ever the professional, Lia keeps her distance - with one exception. Aidan is a breakfast regular, and Lia's easy rapport with him draws her attention, though she would never let their relationship get serious - especially since he's not the only one trying to catch her eye. Her handsome neighbor Griff has been hinting that he wants more than a neighborly relationship. Then her old New York artist life comes knocking, and an offer is made for a series of commissioned paintings. Lia knows it would ensure financial security for her family, but she doesn't know if she wants that life anymore. When she undertakes one final project, she reawakens her heart and soul. And as she finds herself falling in love and needing an outlet more and more, she realizes her paintings might be her saving grace. Members Reviews: I've loved everything I've read by Melanie Jacobson I've loved everything I've read by Melanie Jacobson: her writing is clean, fun, refreshing and sweet. Painting Kisses is no exception. Lia Carswell has left behind a hot-shot life in New York as a premier artist (leaving behind her not-so-hot ex-husband) for a quieter life in Salt Lake City working in a diner and helping her sister raise her niece, Chloe. After her experience with her ex, she's less than interested in dating, particularly not anyone who's handsome and confident, like Aidan, the construction worker who flirts with her at the diner--he rings all the wrong bells after her previous experience with romance. She's actually more interested in Griff, her nice-but-quiet neighbor, who doesn't scare her--but who also doesn't spark quite the same emotional response. After getting an unexpected commission from a former New York contact, Lia finds herself doing something she never thought she'd do again: paint. As she rediscovers the joy of creating, she finds herself opening in other ways as well, including to the unexpected joys of a new romance. I thought this was quite well done. The characters are real--and, seeing them through Lia's eyes, we make some of the same misjudgments that she does. I liked, too, that this novel had some unexpected depth: it wasn't just about romance and kissing, but about Lia coming to terms with her past. As an amateur artist myself, I also resonated with Lia's deep satisfaction in creativity, and I thought Jacobson's descriptions of that process were nicely done. One of my favorite lines in the book compares Lia's sisters to paintings: a radiant Klimt when she's rested, a muted Modigliani when she's exhausted. That was enough to conjure a near-perfect impression for me. My only real complaint is that the book is too short! I wanted just a little more resolution to the love story. A Beautiful Romance After her divorce, famous artist Lia Carswell throws away her brushes, paints, and canvases, and she flees from New York to the mountains of Utah. There she invents a simpler life by changing her name, waitressing in a small diner, and helping to care for her sweet little niece.

The only way to fix the mess she's created is to enlist the help of her neighbor, Levi, the apprentice of her family's greatest enemy. And if Rayne gets caught crossing the divided property lines, the consequences will be irreparable. Levi Harding has never forgotten the August night he shared with Rayne when they were teens - or the way she later rejected him. Despite his warring instincts, he can't ignore her plea for help or the spark that's ignited between them. But now, as wildfires bear down on their town and family secrets are revealed, their newfound alliance might just go up in smoke. Members Reviews: Good story Hidden secrets kept from family unfold in this book. Was a good book, one of my favorite narrators, didn't keep me on the edge of my chair, but overall, good story.

Members Reviews: Holiday romance and Christmas magic What did you love best about Tinsel in a Tangle? I loved the detail given to the class levels among the residents of the North Pole and the intricate explanation of how North Pole life was. Laurie Germaine paints a very vivid picture of what the North Pole looks like and talking reindeer was an added perk. What other book might you compare Tinsel in a Tangle to and why? Tinsel in a Tangle reminded me a whole lot of Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series. Tinsel was constantly getting into messes, has a secret crush on someone she shouldn't, and has to use her skill to solve a mystery. Which character as performed by Angie Hickman was your favorite? I love Angie Hickman's performance of the reindeer. The accents were so believable and their voices really helped you to understand their unique personalities. Any additional comments? I received this title for free in exchange for an unbiased review. Although a little predictable at times, Tinsel in a Tangle was a fun and easy read. Laurie Germain's book was free of bad language and adult situations but had plenty of intrigue and romance. I would highly recommend. Great! Sweet and unique story that is well written and great narration! I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. The fact that I was gifted this book had no influence over my opinion of it tinsel in a tangle great book, loved it! tinsel is a elf, well a full sized clumsy teenager, definitely not a normal small elf. The kringles aka Santa and his family, niklas the grandson of santa also has to find his way through life and make decisions on his feelings for tinsel. Shes accident proned, funny, smart and once she realizes her talent she has to help save christmas with niklas! i was given a copy of this audiobook for free by my request and voluntarily left this review! Fun little Christmas story I was given this as a free review copy and I was worried that it would be too silly based on the summary. I was pleasantly surprised. It is a fun little romance and I enjoyed it quite a bit. The narrator has a sweet voice that brings the main character to life. The story is entertaining with likable characters. There was also some clear Christian imagery used that is very noticeable able if you grew up or live in a Christian home, but it would not be noticed by people who did not. It certainly doesn't hit you over the head with religion Well-done and Charming Tinsel is a Christmas story for all ages, but best enjoyed by YA and up.

Infuriated with the woman pitted against him, Liam finds himself interrupting his own plans. Can Liam weave through this storm of life? Will he be able to find God's will? Members Reviews: Good pick Is based on very good Christian values and faith . Excellent reminders for daily living . Easy listening voice. A Sweet Romance I really enjoyed this audiobook. It was a nice, clean, Christian story about a chance encounter between two people from different worlds. I love the fact that it was clean and had a good back story with the characters. I also really like T.K. Chapin's books. He's a good author. Jay Prichard does a great job narrating this story. He did a great job with the characters and has a really deep voice. Overall, a nice listen. I Love T.K. Chapin as a author!! What did you love best about Love Interrupted: A Sweet Christian Romance? The clean content! Any additional comments? I think Jay Prichard did an amazing job narrating this book! T.K. Chapin is one of my favorite authors for his clean content and interesting characters, and it seems like hes picked Prichard for his audio books and I think he choose right! Great job!! I Loved the Complexity, Not Just a Sappy Romance It seems most "romance" titles are a little sappy and lack substance of reality. And maybe Christian romances even more, and that's great and fun for when you want that. But I was pleasantly surprised that this Christian romance had more substance. It was like the difference between eating a fast-food burger versus devouring a succulently seasoned, well-grilled steak. Because of the density of story and side stories, this book was sort of easy for me to be seen as made into a Christian-based movie, whereas many others are a lot of romance fantasy fluff, and everything is just "too perfect". I felt like there was a lot of meat put into the 3 hours. It is a drama as much as it is a romance. On the other hand, there are still some overly sappy parts for my taste, and a few things that seem a little too perfect for reality, but again, that's part of the romance genre. (Without giving out any spoilers) ...There are a couple of story elements that were tied-up-in-a-nice-little-bow a bit too easily and fast. It was like the changes happened too quickly without the grit that it would have taken to get there. But since the author gave me enough solid "meat to chew on" (what is with me and the meat metaphors today???), I didn't get disturbed too much about the couple of easy resolves. This title definitely has numerous examples of people praying, and turning to God with even quick little prayers when faced with a challenge. Again, this seemed a little "too perfect" to me, but it also made me realize, by example, that we can and should be doing exactly that.

Enjoy these sweet romances as you get to know the Cooke brothers and the townsfolk of Clear Creek. One of the wackiest little towns in the old west! Duncan Cooke had a problem. A really BIG problem. As the next Duke of Stantham, he would have power and position, a wealthy estate and the means to take care of his family for years to come. His father and mother could only dream something like this would happen to their eldest son and now their dream was a reality. So what was the problem? He had to get married in the next 38 days or lose it all. Unfortunately, Duncan lived in Clear Creek. A place where there wasn't a single female around for hundreds of miles. Except one. Cozette Duprie could hunt, shoot a gun, and wield a bow and arrow like nobody's business. Heck, she even helped her father take down a buffalo once. But the buckskin clad beauty had been living life disguised as a boy for so long, she had no idea how to be a girl. And worse, her father suddenly thought she ought to start living like one. But why? Why let everyone in Clear Creek know her secret? And if her father had any ideas of marrying her off, who on earth would want her? No one. For how could any man want a wife who couldn't utter a word? Would Duncan be able to beat the deadline and inherit the title and estate? Or be stopped by those wishing not only the title for themselves, but something much more precious? Members Reviews: Fantastic I love this series!! This was a great continuation of the Cooke brothers adventures in finding love. Can't wait for the next Clear Creek wedding!!! True Love The suspense in this book has me on my toes! I love how wild Colette seemed to be in people's eyes. I loved following her story as she wanted to a queen. Oh how she almost has her dream... I recommend this awesome book! You will not want to stop listening. Another Great book! Love the Cooke brothers and Clear creek! Duncan and Cozette's story is a wonderful book and would highly recommend. The narrator does a wonderful job with the story Amazing story as always but wow Michael is awesome Would you listen to His Prairie Duchess again? Why? Oh YES. I love Kits stories all of them but I have never heard her stories in audible form. Oh Michael is an amazing performer and so perfect for her books and I will listen to this again and hope to listen to more of her books. What other book might you compare His Prairie Duchess to and why? For an audible book, this is the first of Kit's that I have heard. As for others I have heard, I think I HIS TOUCH by Peggy Henderson and narrated by Cody Roberts as he can do great intonations and voices but I don't remember accents. What about Michael Rahhals performance did you like? What was not to like? I couldn't believe how he could read so narrate so easily changing his voices for all the characters that had speaking lines. I was stunned at how such an awesome performer he is with English, American English, French, Scandinavian, and Scottish if I got them all, and western accents and non educated bad guys. Then so many different men and women and go back and forth especially with the Cooke brothers as each have a different voice.

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 12 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Zander Keller survived an addiction recovery center and being on reality TV, but he should never have agreed to do an undercover boss stunt to help his father. The beautiful manager of the southern bed and breakfast makes him laugh and forget his troubles, until she tries to solve his commitment issues like every woman has since his mother's murder. Trin Dean has no intention of becoming besotted with Zander like every other red-blooded female who watched him on television. But when he begins helping out at her bed and breakfast, she discovers the true Zander, who has overcome losing his mother and an alcohol addiction. Can she risk falling for him and jeopardize her job and her home? Members Reviews: Undercover Boss When Zander Keller is asked to check out one of his father's properties, he wonders why he's being sent, but he goes anyway. The bed and breakfast is smaller than the grand hotels his father owns, and run by a young woman named Trin. She sees right through his fake identity, and recognizes him from his stint in the bachelor. Both have some issues to work out, but are drawn to one another. My favorite part of this story was Trin's friend, and the cook at the b&b, Moriah. She had sass! She is the type of friend who will make you laugh, have your back, and tell it like it really is! I hope we can get more of her story somehow! Back to Zander and Trin...the romance was sweet. A nice addition to the Billionaire Bride Pact series. Content: clean (mild violence-assault and a murder, no language, some kissing, previous struggles with alcohol and drugs) Four Stars I have enjoyed this series. Love the chemistry between Zander and Trin! I love the fact that Trin tries to help Zander and doesn't realize how much he's helping her. I couldn't stop reading this one! Kept me up all night! Enjoy These stories were good! Great writers! They kept your attention thru out the story! I love a happily ever after book! Sweet story This story was sweet and had a depth to it that I hadn't anticipated. I laughed at some of the characters dialogue and antics, but also found myself tearing up at some of their tragedies and things they had dealt with. A good read!

But when an unexpected event threatens to destroy the nuns' way of life, will everyone still be together next Christmas? Beloved novelist Marcia Willett's gentle and compassionate holiday tale will touch the hearts of parents and grandparents everywhere. Members Reviews: Technical Problems with this book What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? I was excited to download this book by one of my favorite authors, Marcia Willet. I was disappointed because there are technical problems with the book. There are chapters out of order (which I found very confusing when reading and didn't realize until I got to the end and realized that chapters relating to the end were randomly stuck in the middle.) and the ending is missing completely. Any additional comments? Book would be enjoyable but the chapters are out of order and ending is missing. Technical Difficulties made it confusing . Who was your favorite character and why? Technical difficulties with the download made listening to the book confusing.I had a copy of the book and was able to "sort it out" I am waiting for the problems to be fixed so I can re download the book. It is worth the wait! The Characters I liked the best were Sister Emily and Janna. The character development was excellent.Sister Emily was so wise and gentle with every one especially Janna and her reluctance to Commit . Janna was sensitive and caring despite her propensity to bolt. Listening to the book definitely enhances the story. More of Marcia Please! What character would you cut from Christmas in Cornwall? The Phoney writer Any additional comments? I love Marcia Willett's books . She writes wonderful descriptions of birds, scenery and flowers making you feel that you are right there in Cornwall. I have read all of her books but only have a few on audio.Would love to see more of her books available at Audible. Her writing style reminds me of Rosamunde Pilcher whose books I also really enjoy. Not Willett's best What would have made Christmas in Cornwall better? First, the technical problems of the chapters out of order and then no ending would have helped but the story was a bit tedious and the repeated worries about the same old things got tiresome. I love Marcia Willett but this book just didn't do her justice. She could also limit her use of the word peripatetic. Has Christmas in Cornwall turned you off from other books in this genre? No What character would you cut from Christmas in Cornwall? None Any additional comments? I wish I would have seen the review about the technical problems before I purchased this book. Not up to the standard I have grown used to Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not? No I don't think so. Marcia Willett's books have always been favorites of mine but somehow this one is just not up to her usual standard What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting? Cornwall is a very special place but the story lacked purpose

Members Reviews: Terrible Narration detracts from story Is there anything you would change about this book? Narrator should be female. It was like listening to a documentary! What did you like best about this story? Unusual and substantial subject matter. PTSD is not something that is usually part of romance novels. Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Steve Olsen? Any female. Steve Olsen had a nice speaking voice but definitely not suited for romantic fiction, more for National Geographic. Do you think Hidden in the Heart needs a follow-up book? Why or why not? Not really. The story itself was good though and I would definitely consider another book by this author worth my time. so-so narrator narrator was a bit wooden in his reading, but not so much that I couldn't still enjoy the book in audio form.

Now it's personal, and Wyatt finds both his faith and his investigative skills challenged as he fights to discover the mastermind behind the ring before evil destroys everyone he loves. Members Reviews: Well written What made the experience of listening to Saving Hope the most enjoyable? The truth about child sex trafficking is appalling. We all know it's there but it's easy to forget. This was a nice reminder that it's real and we all need to be aware as well as do something to help. The story is romantic but not overly in such a serious topic. The topic was kept non graphic and appropriate for younger listeners. This is my first novel for Daley and I'm ready for the next one. Loved it. Great story. I enjoyed the whole book. The performance will great. It was well read. Highly recommend it looking forward to next one in series... loves it??? enjoyed storyline. didnt figured who was the real ringleader. glad Wyatt fell in love. Great mystery This is my first story by Margaret and I really enjoyed it. I will be looking forward to more books in this series. Couldn't get into it. I found this book was very, very hard to get into and I only got through a couple of chapters. For me it was a waste of my money.

Though Jonah takes to Garret right away, for some reason neither understands, Dinah and Garret just don't mesh. But for Jonah's sake, their lives continue to collide, and slowly the relationship between these three strangers begins to change. Critic Reviews: "Snelling (One Perfect Day) continues to draw fans with her stellar storytelling skills. This time she offers a look at smalltown medical care in a tale that blends healing, love, and a town's recovery. . .Snelling's description of events at the small clinic during the storm is not to be missed." - Publisher's Weekly on Wake the Dawn - Cristel Phelps, reviewer, Retailers and Resources Magazine on Wake the Dawn"Snelling's fast-paced novel has characters who seek help in the wrong places. It takes a raging storm for the for them to see that the help they needed was right in front of them the whole time. This is a strong, believable story." - RT Book Reviews, ****, on Wake the Dawn"Snelling writes about the foibles of human nature with keen insight and sweet honesty." - National Church Library Association"Snelling's story has the potential to be a big hit. . ..[D]iverse and well rounded. The premise of the story is interesting and the prose is very moving." (RT Book Reviews) Members Reviews: Good Choice Any additional comments? Big fan here of Rosamaude Pilcher & Maeve Binchy. So it's nice to find a new enjoyable author. This audible held my interest, No need to hit fast forward, major plus for me! Looking forward to another Snelling book. Even hidden, Faith is still there. when you have lost faith God sends help to find it!! This is a great audio book. if you have time read it or listen to it. A Moral Book that does not preach What made the experience of listening to Heaven Sent Rain the most enjoyable? I quickly liked the characters, believed them, and cared what happened to them. They did realistic things, and had believable feelings. While the story involves the welfare of the child, the author doesn't stoop to child endangerment, rather she used child endearment to involve the audience. I loved that. What did you like best about this story? The evolution of the characters - the plot was compelling. Have you listened to any of Kristin Kalblis other performances before? How does this one compare? No. But I would listen to her again. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? I tried! But it was deliciously long. Any additional comments? This is my first book by this author, but I am going to purchase another.

Title: The Postcard Subtitle: Amish Country Crossroads #1 Author: Beverly Lewis Narrator: Aimee Lilly Format: Abridged Length: 3 hrs and 15 mins Language: English Release date: 10-21-15 Publisher: christianaudio.com Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Rachel Yoder, a New Order Amish woman, lost her husband and son in a tragic accident two years ago. Now, returning to her aging parents with her young daughter, she has resigned herself to the life of a widow. With a subdued but cheerful heart, she helps her family run a bed-and-breakfast in a quaint Lancaster county town. Philip Bradley, a world-weary journalist from New York City on assignment in Lancaster to write an article on the Amish community, is a lodger at the Yoders' bread-and-breakfast. A chance discovery by Philip of a postcard written in illegible Pennsylvania Dutch in the dresser of his room sets off a series of events that leads him into the heart of the Amish life and to the bedside of a mysterious woman known as "The Storyteller". With the postcard as a link to a haunted past, the woman gradually weaves a riveting tale as old as herself about a community shuttered in secrecy, shattered by betrayal. Fascinated by the story, Philip's and Rachel's lives become inevitably intertwined, despite the attempts of the community to protect her from the outsider. Torn by devotion to the people she loves and the awakening feelings in her heart, Rachel searches her past to restore old wounds in order that new love might grow. Members Reviews: Wonderful story with a mystery I could not stop reading the story. So many times, we simply accept the teachings of our church without reading for ourselves and seeking the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Rachael Yoder is a young wife and mother. She watches as a car hits the Amish buggy killing her young son and husband. Rachael goes into what is called by many hysterical blindness. The story than moves 2 years forward. Rachael and her daughter Anna are living with her parents and helping with an Amish B&B. A mystery develops concerning an old post card a young New York magazine writer, Phillip, discovers an old postcard stuck in the old roll top desk in his room. The card is from Gabe to Adella. Gabe is Rachael's great-uncle, shunned by the Old order Amish. Gabe wanted to follow the teachings of Jesus and be lead by the Holy Spirit. His family and the church believed he had the gift of sympathy healing and wanted him to become a powwow healer. (Not powwow related to native Americans) Gabe believed that old teaching from the church about the powwow healers was straight from the pit of hell and refused. This is a wonderful story and I must now follow the story through to the end and buy the rest in the Amish series. Enthralling story This was such an intense book. Personalities-beliefs-selfish manipulation-open innocence all woven within this story of tragedy and strength. It was like a gripping piece of music. I would be sad at finishing it but for the fact that there is as second book. I have read many of B. Lewis books and this is by far my favorite. Wonderful Look forward to reading this series. Wonderful writer Super I couldn't put this book down & can't wait to start #2. Beverly Lewis is a great writer. I've read many of her books! Spirituality with some mystery The blending of the characters played out well with this story. Some Amish, some English - both questioning their relationship with the Lord. I look forward to the next book.

Rooted in Love (previously published in An Amish Garden) Rosemary Lantz is doing her best to run her family's household. She excels at all her tasks except one: gardening. Saul Petersheim has pursued Rosemary for years, but Rosemary keeps turning him down. What Saul doesn't know is that she has good reason - something no one can know, especially not him. A Love for Irma Rose The year is 1957, and young Irma Rose has a choice to make. Date the man who is "right" for her? Or give Jonas a chance, the wild and reckless suitor who refuses to take no for an answer? Irma Rose steps onto the path she believes God has planned for her, but when she loses her footing, she is forced to rethink her choice. Patchwork Perfect Eli Byler has been a widower for two years when he chooses to make a fresh start in Paradise, Pennsylvania. As Eli juggles the admiration of two women, he meets Miriam Fisher - the most unconventional Amish woman he's ever met. She doesn't fit the mold for what Eli is looking for, but it isn't long before Eli realizes that Miriam is everything he wants. But Miriam has no plans to get married - ever. Will Eli be able to change her mind? When Christmas Comes Again (previously published in An Amish Second Christmas) Katherine knows the first Christmas without Elias will be hard for her and the children. But when a mysterious Englischer appears with photographs of her late husband, Katherine begins to wonder what other blessings Christmas could have in store. Members Reviews: Many Mysteries, Much Love All four of these stories captivated me. I read them all in two sittings. All of the stories had happy endings too. Sometimes it took longer for a couple to find true romance. Gossip also took romance through a detour. It was sad when the book ended. I hope you'll enjoy this book as much as I have. Fun Stories FTC: I received a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. An Amish Year by Beth Wiseman was an excellent book. I love books like this because I love the shorter stories and the fact that I can read through one quickly and move on to a new thing. I liked that they put definitions of some of the words that the Amish use so that if you havenât read books in this genre before you will be able to understand and follow along with the stories. I have read enough books that I donât need the information, but if you are new, then I know you will love it. Out of the four stories that are in this book, I think I liked the first story the most. I felt like I could relate to Rosemary out of all the characters and her story was my favorite out of the four stories. I would recommend this book to people who donât have tons of time to read because since they are short stories you can just read one and then put it down and walk away from it for awhile without having to remember what happened before. All Excellent Stories. True love, honest commitment and respect is the only way to great marriage relationships. Valuable lessons in all four stories. Excellent read I liked all of the different stories in this book. Love, family, mystery. It really kept me reading. Enjoyed recipes. Five Stars I loved reading each story included in this book. I enjoy reading about their caring way of life!

Members Reviews: Coming Undone Great read,it is very difficult to put her books down once you start reading them.. I cannot wait to read her next book It's listed as a Christian romance however the language needs to be cleaned up Although I did enjoy this book, be warned that although it's listed as a Christian romance however the language needs to be cleaned up. Also Catholicism is pushed. A true Christian book does not push denomination. It does have romance in it. I was given a copy for an honest review. Inspirational and Heartwarming story. Really enjoyed this book a lot, it was very emotional and heartwarming and the subject matter although a difficult one was very well handled and compassionate. this was a very inspirational book and although it took me a while to get threw due to being quite busy with other things I really enjoyed it a lot. This is an author who I am quickly becoming a fan of and I really hope that Audible will get more of her content apart from what they already have. I have bought everything that is on here by this author so hope there might be more in the future.

No matter the danger, John Costin was determined to speak Gods word. Neither expected to fall in love. As enemies threaten to silence Costin - and those close to him - will following their hearts cost John and Elizabeth everything? Members Reviews: Historical Romance I enjoyed listening to this book. I felt the performance was wonderfully done. I didn't realize until the end that this book was loosely based on John Bunyun. It was a bit melancholy throughout. I didn't care for the hero much because I felt he wasn't that loving and caring toward his family. He came across very stern to me. however, he had at times exhibited some tenderness. The heroine was a saint to me. she was so good and giving and a very hard worker. I did enjoy the historical aspects of this book very much. And The ending did turn out to be a happy ending. Good book I like at the end how we are told this was the story of Elizabeth Bunyan John Bunyan wife. It was a good story worth listening to. A time in history I don't know much about A time in history I don't know much about, namely about the Puritans in England, but was fascinated to learn. Great story based on real people. I really enjoyed it. This skeptic converted I will admit, I hate to jump on any kind of book bandwagon, and when all my friends started raving about this book I thought-- yeah, probably not for me. But then I started reading Jody Hedlund's blog and she really knows the craft of writing and I thought...maybe I ought to give her book a read, even though there was a "bonnet" on the cover. I am so glad I read this. What an amazing story. When you start reading, you think, how can a story about a breadmaker's daughter be exciting- but the story takes off quickly and then you're hooked. This was an incredible read and I can't wait for the next book to come out. Did not enjoy this book or reader This book is set in England. The reader has a very plain all American tone, it just doesn't fit with the story setting at all. I do not feel the writer "wrote" to the potential this story has, being that it is based on actual people and historical events. Things just didn't add up for me, but if you are not a stickler for historical accuracy than this might be a good choice for you. It is based on wonderful characters and an interesting time in history. As for me, I just couldn't finish it.

He feels in his heart that she is the one he will marry and start his family with, but as the train arrives in his small California town, he searches and searches for the woman he's grown to love. Finally, the postmaster points her out and the rancher realizes that he may have made a very big mistake. Members Reviews: What a powerful story! Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? One of my most favorite scenes in this story was the description of Marlene reading the newspaper. Even though this is such an ordinary thing to do, the way Mr. Smith read how Marlene prepared her coffee or tea and absorbed every word of her newspaper, made me feel 'extremely' comforted. Any additional comments? This story was a real eye-opener for me, as I recognized myself in wanting to be independent and never having to rely on anyone for anything, but on the other hand, we all need help in our lives--not only from each other, but definitely from God. Without Him, we can do nothing. And He is always there whenever we call on Him.

But Noah's charm pays off, and he introduces his bride-to-be to a special Cooper family tradition: The wedding letters. Family and friends of the happy couple are invited to send letters of advice on love, life, and happiness. However, when a dark secret from Rachel's past surfaces, will Noah and his parents, Malcolm and Rain, be able to help save the wedding from disaster? And what about the scrapbook of wedding letters that have already been gathered? Could a single letter really provide the answer that will bring Rachel back? Set against the backdrop of Virginia's Shenandoah Valley, The Wedding Letters will remind you that sometimes, no matter the secrets of years past, two hearts can still be one. And by the final page, you might just want to create your own book of wedding letters for someone you love. Members Reviews: Captivating story that kept me wanting more I loved, absolutely loved the entire story. The Wednesday Letters hooked me from the start. I also read the Proposal Letter: A bridge novella ( The Wednesday Letters) before The Wedding Letters. These books could have been a series of books. I almost felt like I was part of the story. I was a little saddened when I got to the end of The Wedding Letters. It was wonderful and magical. Honestly, I did not want the story to end. Now I am left to wonder what happened next. I fell in love with the characters - they could have been reAl people. Awe inspiring story. Looking forward to reading more of Jason F. Wright's stories. If you could not get enough of the Wednesday Letters...PIck up this book fast! The Wedding Letters is the sequel to the Wednesday Letters. Do not read this book if you have not already read the Wednesday Letters. It will totally ruin the Wednesday Letters secrets for you. This is a cute love story, that at times is a little hokey, between Noah and Rachel. Noah is the son of Malcom from the Wednesday Letters. It is very predictable and cute. A good beach read. Why did I give it four stars? Because I could not put it down. I had to skip ahead to read the ending, and then read it straight through again. I cried at the end, something that does not happen often. This would also be a good book for parents to have their teens read. The main characters, Noah and Rachel, have good Christian values. Their relationship is pure and innocent. The book mentions God and spirituality often. This book is a good example of how sweet physical love can be if you wait. Five Stars A great continuation for "Wednesday letters"! To see how overcoming life's challenges can achieve happiness well deserved. There's power in a handwritten letter! This was a sweet sequel to THE WEDNESDAY LETTERS. It conveys the volatility and fragility of new love as well as the haunting spectre of a past secret.

She hungers for a family of her own, and at 29, she feels time ticking away. When a busted pipe floods her home, Steve Evans offers her the family's basement apartment as a temporary solution. Steve is widower, a father of two teenaged girls, and a successful writer. He is also the object of Terri's secret affections. At least he was until a casual comment from him leads her to believe that he has all the family he'll ever want. Iris and Samantha Evans have set their sights on Terri as the perfect stepmother. Their matchmaking plans include equal parts of prayer and deception. Will their scheming result in the wedding of their dreams, or will the harsh confrontation between Steve and the parents of Terri's foster child be an obstacle they can't overcome? Members Reviews: Mundane What disappointed you about Terri? I tried to get engaged to the characters, but she introduced so many at once it was hard to keep them straight. It was almost like 2 stories going on at once without a clear indication of when you were in the other story. I just couldn't complete it, it was too mundane. Would you ever listen to anything by Sharon Srock again? Probably not. Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Laura Jennings? The narrator was not the problem. You didnt love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities? An inside look at an aging woman desiring children and the workings of the foster child system. So good!! Another great book from Sharon Srock! She has quickly become one of my favourite authors! As an older, single woman, I can identify with Terri's struggles to follow God's will for her life, when what she's always wanted seems to be In a different direction. God's way is rarely easy, but it's always the best way! awesome book what a great 2nd book in this series! well worth listening to this book. the life of Terri! Great author Really appreciate the author and story line. She is a blessing to out faith based fiction books. True Friends are a Great Blessing Terri, by Sharon Srock is a second book in the Women of Valley View series and yet can easily be a standalone story. Srock does a great job of writing about realistic relationships (especially of this group of friends in Valley View) and circumstances. In this story, she tackles the foster care system and does a nice job of presenting both the parental side and the side of the foster parent. The main characters are believable and likable. Terri is a successful day care owner who wants a family of her own and feels her biological clock is ticking too fast. Steve is a successful author who already has a couple of older daughters and comes across as being satisfied with the family he has. But Terri is falling in love. Can love overcome the difficulties? The author interjects humor, adds a twist or two to the plot and weaves in strong Christian values to bring readers a heartwarming read. The audiobook was narrated well by Laura Jennings, giving each character their own unique voice and making for an enjoyable experience to listen to the book. I was given an audio copy of this book by the author in exchange for an honest review.

Title: Jessica's First Prayer and Jessica's Mother for Today's Readers Author: 12 Springs Publications Narrator: Darby Reed Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 34 mins Language: English Release date: 11-02-17 Publisher: 12 Springs Publications Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 7 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: She is only trying to survive...to stay out of harm's way...to keep warm...to find some food. To him money is everything. He is trying to earn more...to save more. God brings them together to teach them about his love and how they can mutually bless one another. Members Reviews: Great Old Treasure--Very Family Friendly This is two stories put together. These stories are old classics. The language has been changed updated only in places where it would cause confusion for modern readers. These delightful Christian stories remind me of Charles Dickens' style only the gospel is much more explicit. Think Oliver Twist only with more hope. Jessica is an incredibly likable character. These stories cover the difficulties of her life without sugar coating them but also without unnecessary graphic violence. The short-comings of specific people and the Church at large are a realistic part of the story. The book illustrates how God moves in the lives of the characters to both provide for the problems and deal with the characters' hearts. The stories are interesting and capture your attention. The characters are well-written as one expects from good old literature. The narrator does a good job and captures the mood of the story. She has trouble pronouncing the word "especially," pronouncing it exspecially, but she is otherwise perfect. This minor flaw does not detract in any way from the story. This is a great book and very family friendly. It would be wonderful for a family listen-aloud or a great bedtime story. I received this book for free from the author, publisher, or narrator on Audio-Book Boom in exchange for an honest review. Very inspirational Love stories with a great message. This is easy to listen and will hold your attention. Two Stories in One Book These are books that are part of a collection of stories that are as old as 100 years, being introduced to the audio world. They are wholesome stories that are family-friendly. This is the 2nd book in the series that *I received in exchange for my unbiased review. The 1st one is called SAVED AT SEA, which is wonderful. Jessica's 1st Prayer and Jessica's Mother fall into the category that I described above. However, it is very harsh in the reality of the time it was written. I don't think it would be appropriate for children under 10 but is a wonderful look with a good story for all other audiences. Darby Reed is a fine narrator. I did speed up the playback (as I often do) to listen at a more comfortable pace. This book is a little bit rough in the scenery and emotion described. The characters are abrasive but again, I think it is a sign of the time in which it was written. *I received this book in exchange for my unbiased review. I read the reviews of others before I purchase a book. If you found my review helpful, would you please select "helpful" directly below this review? Consider 'following me on Audible. Authors and narrators, feel free to share my review on any other media you would like. It's all yours! Loved the Outcomes I got this ARC via audiobook boom and this is my voluntary review. I loved the way that the coffee stall keeper fulfilled his duties as not only a seller of coffee but the keeper of the church that he belonged.

And certainly, Cecelia has no idea she'll be mixed up in a murder investigation. Will Cecelia's faith in God get her through all the troubles that lie ahead? Members Reviews: A wonderful Romantic Suspense Novel SM Ford has written a wonderful Romantic Suspense novel. The prologue will pull you in immediately. Not only is it a hard-to-put-down page-turner, but there were several laugh out loud moments involving animals and pets. A touching story of a woman in love who worries if her love is unrequited. Very well-written with a strong voice, vivid details and sense of place. Must Read! If you love mystery and Christian romance, this is the book to read! I loved the story line. I was hooked until the very end. Cliffhanger? You better believe it! A great page turner. This was a good romance and yet a mystery. I often solve the mysteries before the villain is revealed. Not this one! To say it was a cliff hanger is an understatement. A good read Nice afternoon read, romantic mystery. Mystery is the focus...of course boy gets girl. No undulating hips and lips. Good character and story development. Sweet romance for a rainy day A sweet romance with just the right number of twists to keep things interesting. Great for a cozy winter day.

As she is taking photos of passengers arriving to board the ship, she accidentally snaps a picture of a murder. Her dream job turns into a nightmare as she tries to stay alive amidst the beauty of Hawaii. A handsome detective on medical leave volunteers to be her bodyguard until the killer is caught. Can their blooming romance survive murder on the high seas? Members Reviews: Exposure at Sea Cynthia Hickey I have read the other books in this series and really liked them. This story had a potentially excellent setting and used that well at times. I felt at times that i must have missed something "where did the money come from? Who put it there? How were the people connected?" One scene turned from day to night. All that being said I would recommend the book to someone reading the series or someone who likes a slow quiet read. Good characters and entertaining just not up to Hickey's usual quick moving riveting stories. It is a good story. You won't regret this quiet Christian read. Could it have moved quicker, definitely and more attention paid to detail. Didn't come to a resolution too well! I had high hopes for this book after reading several other books by Cynthia Hickey. The setting of the book was great--on board the ship and the murder elements kept the book entertaining. However, by the end of the book the reader is left not even understanding what really happened, what the motive was behind the murders and more specifically exactly how the last murder victim and the thief really tied in together. Thus, I can not rate it higher. Definitely not as good as some of her other novels. a little disappointed This book was about Lance & Molly meeting on a cruise ship where she worked. There's love, mystery & murder involved. The story was a little draggy & at times silly. The first 3 books in this series were very exciting & written well. I'd recommend this book even though it didn't measure up to the others. Fun story Great detective story with lots of twists and turns and humor, fun and excitement. It had mystery, love, faith, and much more. lots of action and clean romance A good read once I set my mind to Hickey's style -- more than average deaths and quick, happily ever after endings. Not a deep-healing book, but a fast-paced little escape, with good Christian 'advice'.

The last thing she wants is a husband, especially not leering Clem Toeger. Garrett Black didn't mean to find himself a wife. He was perfectly satisfied running his ranch on his own. But when a frightened girl is offered up to anyone who wanted her, he can't abide the thought of her being hitched to Clem Toeger, a man with questionable integrity and the only candidate. Will this unlikely couple have a chance at love? Members Reviews: This novel had a great beginning. Unfortunately This novel had a great beginning. Unfortunately, I got hung up on all of the male character's family members asking him how he and his new wife were getting along in bed. Sorry, but people just didn't talk so openly about those things back then, even in one on one conversations. The author needed to move the plot along at that point. A family's story I wasn't sure what to expect at first, but as it turned out I really did like this book. I liked that Garrett saved both Lucy and Joan, he was a good man who knew that is bride needed time and he let her have that time. I also liked that he was completely up front with his family, he didn't try to hid the marriage and Lucy's background. I don't know if there is another book where Travis's story comes out, but I hope he can heal soon (I know he's only a character in a story). I really enjoyed reading this book I really enjoyed reading this book. When I was through, I wished there was more, so if this becomes a series I would read it. I think that Lucy's past could have been painted more vividly, also her attachment and bonding to Joan could have been more fully developed. However, this author really has a way of pulling the reader into the story. I will be looking for more from her. Well done! This was a very good book! It was a little predictable in places but it was exciting and romantic non the less. The characters are well developed and I love orphan train stories with happy ending!! Five Stars This was a very good book.....loved it.

So what is Amber supposed to do when blindness looms? Amber spent her life adapting first to being abandoned by her birth mother as a toddler, and then to the death of her adoptive father in her teen years. Now she's moved past all that, loving life as an independent woman: she has a job as an art instructor and the perfect apartment. But when a routine eye appointment reveals she's losing her sight, life comes to a halt. Pressures come at her from all sides. Her mother, her boss, her boyfriend, and her closest friend, Shannon, all have ideas about what's best for her. Even after her blindness counselor, Ethan, befriends her and opens her eyes to new opportunities and the possibility of a deeper relationship, one haunting question remains: How could the God she loved all her life turn everything upside down again? Members Reviews: A moving story of overcoming through adversity Have your tissues on hand for this book. Your emotions will spill in a good way for Amber. This was such a moving story about how to move forward after life throws you a curve ball. Amber has just found that she is going blind and this is her journey on how to come to grips with her new reality. Ms. McGowan did such a great job in describing Amber's emotions for denial to acceptance. I loved how she pointed out that there is a before and after time in her life now. Anyone who has ever gone through some tough times can relate to Amber's struggle. I have the e-book but I will have to get the paperback. This is a book you want to share with friends. This book reminded me that we will all deal with something catastrophic in our lives and it really depends on who we lead on to get us through our crisis. I received this book from the Publisher and the author. The opinions represented are entirely my own. Five Stars I love this author. What a gifted talent. Wonderful.

Could not put the book down!! One of the Best Books of 2017! Hold the Light (2017) by April McGowan is a stand-alone novel that was just released on August 15, 2017. This book comes in all forms including eBook, and is 300 pages in length. With a full-time job and a rambunctious five-year old at home, this novel took me two days to read. I received a review copy of this novel from WhiteFire Publishing. In no way has this influenced my opinions of the story. All opinions expressed in this review are mine. I give this phenomenal novel 5+ STARS. This novel is a Contemporary Christian novel with slight Romance tendencies. This book may be one of the best stories I have read this year! I absolutely love this novel. The story line really grabbed my attention because I personally suffer from serious vision impairment, an issue which began when I was five years old. The notion that I could go blind in my future isn't far fetched, and it scares me a little. I was intrigued by not only the blindness aspect, but by the fact that the main character, Amber, is a painter by trade.

Refusing to pass up the hard-won opportunity to prove herself as a journalist, she left Hillsdale, Michigan, hoping in vain that Ayden Goswell would follow her to Boston. When the train bringing her back for her first major story crashes in a snowstorm outside town, Mia is stranded. Not even the survival of a fellow passenger, a toddler, can ease her heart's sudden ache at seeing Ayden, now a history professor at the local college, courting someone else. Ayden's never gotten over the fact that the most fascinating woman he ever met chose her career over marriage...and he let her go. But marrying the department director's daughter could at least guarantee him a permanent job. It's a satisfactory arrangement, yet his kind, pretty bride-to-be has one simple flaw: she's not Mia. As soon as the trains are running, Mia will be leaving again, unless she and Ayden can reconcile ambition and love - and take a leap of faith together. Members Reviews: A pleasant surprise! I will admit from the reviews I read on Amazon that this wasn't a book I was eager to read. I'm glad I did though because I was drawn into this story from the start as it immediately opens in action. I also appreciated the strong character development. I want to mention that I really liked the narrator a lot - I liked how she changed her voice with the different characters and how when Mia was crying she [the narrator] put a sob in her voice. Sweet Second Chance Romance and a side of Suspense What made the experience of listening to Collision of the Heart the most enjoyable? Despite butting heads and challenging each other at every possible moment, it was easy to see that Mia and Ayden still loved each other. I liked seeing their story play out. Each taking responsibility for their past. The side of suspense was a bonus and made for a thrilling end to the story. Who was your favorite character and why? I think Mia was my favorite character. She had to learn that she needed community, her friends and the people that were like family to her. I also liked Mrs. Goswell she knew what was best for her son and for Mia. She would not let Mia's unexpected return to Hillsdale go to waste. Things needed to be settled one way or the other. What about Angela Dawes performance did you like? I thought Angela Dawe did a really good job bringing the personalities of each character out. She added just the right amount of drama where needed. If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be? Sweet Second Chance at Romance With an Order of Suspense on the Side. Any additional comments? This is listed in listed in the Christian Historical Romance. There is an element of faith but this is not preachy. It is a clean read/listen. Very enjoyable! Lovely! Such a beautiful story about the importance of the love of family. Miss Eakes did a wonderful job keeping me awake! Mystery, romance, danger all woven together for a perfect story.

Karen has carried the burden of responsibility for her aging mother ever since her gorgeous sister left town years ago to pursue a career in theater. But Val had darker reasons for leaving town - as well as a secret to keep - and coming home has never been an option...until their mother suffers a stroke. Reunited in their hometown, Karen and Val must grapple with their past mistakes, their relationship with each other, and their issues with a mother who is far from ideal. When a physical therapist raising his daughter alone and a handsome but hurting musician enter the picture, the summer takes on a whole new dimension. As their lives intersect and entwine, can each learn how to forgive, how to let go, and how to move on? And strengthened by the healing power of faith, might they also find the courage to love? Members Reviews: Great read! Enjoyed the way the lives of the people were woven together. Engaging story based on real life struggles. Preachy This book should be under Christian fiction. It is very preachy. Not my genre, buyer beware, you may not be getting what you thought. However if you do like Christian fiction then this is for you. She is a good writer and the narrator did a nice job. Another excellent book by Irene Hannon Would you listen to That Certain Summer again? Why? Yes, the story flowed well between the two main characters and their potential love interests. Although there was romance, I enjoyed the relationship between the sisters more than courtships. What was one of the most memorable moments of That Certain Summer? The most memorable moment was the mother's letter to her unborn child that Val read at the rehearsal. Abortion is a key issue that Irene Hannon deals with in a sensitive manner. Which scene was your favorite? I thoroughly enjoyed the entire book. The scene when Val met with the minister and finally began to forgave herself was especially touching. If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be? Facing the past

However, she soon finds that Luke Tanner is also carving himself onto her heart. Members Reviews: Lovely! Yet another lovely book from this lovely author. I wish each of her stories would be longer. She has such skill with the written word that it is sad. This is a wonderful story with wonderful characters. I was completely satisfied! denise bailey Awesome book! Recommended! Ms. Lilly has a way of writing that makes you feel you are there! I love her books. Not often you can find Christian-written books these days. Warms your heart. Sweet Romance This was the second story in the O'Little Town of Christmas Collection. The other was the story called The Substitute Bride by Carrie Fancett Pagels. This was a really sweet historical romance and you will enjoy it very much. It is the first I have read from this author, but I enjoy her sweet style and the fact that the book makes you feel good and you can see God's hand in how our lives should be. Angelica Cartwright finds herself on a stagecoach heading to a new job as school teacher in Somerset, Kentucky and has a bad fall and finds herself being cared for by a stranger and his sweet daughter. Her plans just do not go as they should as she realizes that she won't be able to teach to the broken leg heals. You will need to read the story to see what happens, no spoilers here. This was a very nice story and I enjoyed it very much. ANSWERED PRAYERS What a beautiful and inspirational story. The faith of a child wanting a Mommy or an Angel and when Angelica finds Lanie freezing in the snow, Lanie believes God has sent her an Angel. Luke is a talented woodworker, raising his daughter as a single parent, but lacking in what a little girl needs, that a mother could provide. Who would have believed that Angelica traveling to a remote area in Kentucky and breaking her leg would be a blessing in disguise? This is a story that has wonderful characters, heartwarming moments, faith in God, the innocence of a child, a devious man, and a ploy that fails. But with God all things are possible and with childlike faith, prayers are answered. Disclosure: I received an e-copy of this book and voluntarily read for an honest review. All thoughts, opinions, and ratings are my own. Welcome to Mistletoe! My synopsis: Little Lanie Tanner prays for an angel of her own for Christmas!

It isn't easy to look after four younger siblings in a city like Brooklyn, but God has always helped her through even the toughest of times. When Tiffany meets an attractive and successful man at church one Sunday, she feels something that she has never felt before. David is a strong young man who possesses every quality that a woman would want in a man. He's an only child who works hard to support his parents who mean the world to him. Tiffany has never met a man like David, and as she gets to know him better, his strength and good qualities arouse feelings of passion in her. She begins fantasizing about David and what it would be like to really be with a man like him. Tiffany soon finds herself faced with one of the largest obstacles of her life: desire.

Can Tiffany and David find a way to control their desires in a world where everyone seems to be giving in? Will their love for God give them the strength to remain pure? Members Reviews: Young and in love This was truly a match made from heaven, in today's troubling times young people are too quick to succumb to their bodies instead of being patience and letting god guide them. Wonderful , loving and kind. It was an awesome experience to relive what love feels like. Sweet and unexpected At a young age Tiffany had to become, more than the sister to her siblings but also their mother figure as well. Her life revolves around her family, church and work. No holy desire has a moral plot and story line. The characters were developed and the executed.

You didnt love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities? I loved this book and will read all of Wanda's books !!! Any additional comments? These books are great for the soul... A Vow Forever Awesome!! All around wonderful book! Narrater was Great as well! I recommend this book! Great story the whole way to end! Corney Is there anything you would change about this book? I'd change the ending. It was abrupt and seems like it was rushed for the deadline. What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting? The trail you were led on in reuniting the two protagonists. Would you listen to another book narrated by Heather Henderson? Not an Amish book. I think you should practice the dialect of ANY individual or culture. Heather kinda have a youthful voice. Did A Vow for Always inspire you to do anything? Take time in making major decisions in relationships. Don't let the sun go down being angry at someone. Any additional comments? This series was not Wanda's best writing. It just seemed rushed. I was also disappointed because this series could have been one book, easily.

Their mother died many years ago which turned their father to drink and gambling. Now their fortune is gone and soon her sisters must leave their finishing school. What will happen to them? Where will they live? What will they eat? Will they be thrown onto the streets? When her father tells her what he has done, she feels her heart break. It is preposterous to think that he would sell her to a man just to pay off his gambling debts. But what choice does she have? Keeping her pride she makes a deal with him and sets off to the Wild West to become nothing more than a maid and a wife in name only. Robert Miller lost his wife and his one true love. Bringing up a daughter in the west is not a job for a rancher. But he gets more than he bargained for when Kristine arrives. Members Reviews: Aptly titled, true to its Sweet rating THE RIVAL BRIDE is my first exposure to Indiana Wake's books. It's short--perhaps 35 to 40 pages. It's a quick, light read. A lot happens in those pages, and the story seems rushed. While mostly cleanly edited, this short story/novella had many, many misused commas that should have been a period and new sentence. Other places that should have had a comma simply didn't. I found myself distracted from the story by this stylistic choice which happened far too often. I'm frustrated I didn't know where the story was set until Chapter 8 when "Denver" is mentioned. Until then, just "this city". Setting really didn't matter and it could have been anywhere. Didn't even need to be the western U.S. I did enjoy the secondary characters. I liked watching Robert and Kristine discover each other and that the wedding wasn't right away. The title is appropriate. It's nice Kristine learned from Robert what had happened outside of her knowledge. It was a treat watching Robert figure out what he wanted, discover the truth about Abby (his friend/neighbor) and discover his new feelings for Kristine. Sensuality Level: Sweet/Clean Language: clean Violence: none A Bride for the Widower I enjoyed this short Historic Romance and I voluntarily chose to review it. I've given it a 5* rating. Even though this is short, it's part of a series. This will give more on some of the characters. It made a nice evening's read. I liked both the hero and the heroine in this. Read about the trust these women had in God's provision for their happiness I enjoy reading a clean fun story that I can escape in for a little while. Mail order brides have intrigued me because of the unknown about what these young woman were walking into and the faith that they had in God to provide a love worth the risk. This was a good book and I enjoyed reading it. The story line left me wanting to read more by this author. Too short! Book had a good subject, but was to short to enjoy. You start it and it over before you can comprehend what hsppend. Short but interesting I enjoyed the book or short story. It in my opinion. Is a good read but was too short for my liking. But I would recommend it for reading when you have onlymamfew minutes to spare.

Stealing Adda Audiobook by Tamara Leigh

Title: Stealing Adda Author: Tamara Leigh Narrator: Mary Sarah Agliotta Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 25 mins Language: English Release date: 05-28-15 Publisher: Tamara Leigh, Author Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 54 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Writer's block, nibbled nails, plagiarism, oh my! And did I mention romance? Life for Adda Sinclaire, New York Times best-selling author and historical romance writer extraordinaire, reads more like a country song than a breathless, bodice-bursting affair. For starters, she has no romance in her own life. That might have something to do with the fact that her husband - correction, ex-husband - ran off with Stick Woman, whom everyone knew would never be more than a mid-list author anyway. To add insult to injury (and another verse to the country song), her ex not only took their dog but gave it to Stick Woman. If that isn't enough, Adda has come down with a horrible case of writer's block, finds herself gifted with a Bible that is determined to speak to her, and is the unwitting target of a romance cover model's misdirected advances. Just when she catches her breath-and quite possibly the eye of a certain fabulously good-looking man (ahem...her new editor) - her arch-nemesis gives the pot one final stir. Members Reviews: I love this book! SO much of everything I love! Any additional comments? This book is one I listen to regularly! Tamara Leigh is brilliant, and Mary Sarah Agliotta's voice brings the book to life. Her ability to breathe life into the voices inside Alda's head is classic. This is a perfect romance, full of everything I love. Conflict, drama, fantastic kissing scenes, and unbelievably bad luck! I love it! I wish there were a few spin-off books from this one! So many great characters! Disappointed This book was disappointing, it was annoying. The storyline itself was ok kind of predictable but the main character would not shut up and the narrator had an odd flow like she was trying really hard to be dramatic. I don't know if she's British and is trying not to sound like it or she's not British and is trying to sound like she is but it gave the reading a very contrived feel. I'll make sure that I do not get another book with that narrator. Love this author/ narrator combo I enjoy this author/narrator so much, thought it was about time I write a review. To all my fellow navigators of romanic fiction. If you enjoy traveling to another time and place in style and avoiding the gutter, then Tamara's books are for you. Clean and fun. I have not been disappointed. Sit back and enjoy the ride. Great listen! What did you love best about Stealing Adda? I buy audible books to listen to while I drive but I found this book so great that I wanted to listen to it at night before bed or while I relaxed with a sudoku puzzle. Who was your favorite character and why? Adda Sinclair was my favorite character, at first I thought she might be just a little too prim and proper for me to identify with but she had me eating out of hand by the end of the book and I would most definitely read something about her again! Which scene was your favorite? There are many parts I love about this book but my favorite would have to be the part when Molly's kids are driving everyone crazy. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? When Sophia sent Adda Psalms 31....I cried...and cried Favorite Author, Favorite Narrator Leigh and Agliotta are like friends I've never met...I adore them both! Amazing!! One of my favorite books, period.

Deep in the Heart of Trouble Audiobook by Deeanna Gist

Title: Deep in the Heart of Trouble Author: Deeanna Gist Narrator: Brooke Sanford Format: Abridged Length: 6 hrs and 22 mins Language: English Release date: 12-04-08 Publisher: Oasis Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 15 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Essie Spreckelmeyer is the last woman anyone in Corsicana, Texas, expected to see with a man on her arm. Independent and outspoken, she's known more for riding bicycles in outrageous bloomers than for catching a man's eye. And the last man who seems willing to give her a second glance is Tony Morgan, newly hired at Spreckelmeyer's oil company. The disinherited son of an oil baron, Tony wants most to restore his name and regain his lost fortune - not lose his heart to this headstrong blonde. She confounds, contradicts, and confuses him. Sometimes he doesn't know if she's driving him toward the aisle or the end of his rope. That's how life is...Deep in the Heart of Trouble. Members Reviews: A sequel that is better than the first! I am a big fan of Deeanne Gist's writing, but I was sorely disappointed by her third book, "Courting Trouble." I still can't quite exactly put my finger on why; it had a wonderfully unique plot with vivid descriptions of the time period, and lively characters. I think my problem with the novel may have been that I wasn't wild about the main character, Essie. Despite her outgoing personality and her attitude that she can do most anything she wants even though she's a woman, I found her to be a bit too simpering and nave and she just grated on my nerves. I could have just chalked it up to the time period Essie was set in, but I know that Gist has never let that stop her from creating beautifully multi-dimensional and memorable characters before. I picked up "Deep in the Heart of Trouble", Gist's fourth novel and the sequel to "Courting Trouble" simply because I believe in Gist as an author, and I didn't want to let the little fact that I am not a fan of her character keep me from enjoying her latest work. I was so pleasantly surprised to find that in the four years that had passed in the storyline between the two books, Essie grew up and became a character that I quickly fell in love with! She had learned a few lessons from her past and became a better, more well-rounded woman for it. I also loved that Gist added a little mysterious twist to the book, which brought along excitement and adventure... I don't want to give away too much, so I won't say anything more about that. "Deep in the Heart of Trouble" is another wonderful example of how Gist bucks the traditional storyline for Christian Fiction, thus making her novels enjoyable to all readers regardless of their faith. While her characters are still conveying good Christian morals and a redeeming message of God's constant love and benevolence, her works, this book included, fail to be sappy or preachy. They tell tales of love and heartache and humor and joy that just about everyone can relate to and enjoy. This is not your typical novel from a Christian publisher, and I think most of us can whole-heartedly agree that that is a GOOD thing! Grade: A+ I enjoyed the historical aspects of the book I enjoyed the historical aspects of the book.. Besides that I like littl else. The two main characters never trust each other and manage to magically get over it. I could go on and on and spoil the book for you. I'd skip this book and try another Deanne Gist book. This one just doesn't cut it (plot wise or romance wise). Great tension all the way to the end! l enjoyed this lively story.

Her new mission is to find out who really killed Helen Walker to clear Jeremy's name. When the real killer is revealed, it sets Kate in a tailspin of grief and heartbreak. Members Reviews: Great Read Any additional comments? The Housekeeper's Proposal by Barbara Goss was a great read. Everyone is blaming Jeremy Walker for killing his wife Helen Walker. The sheriffs sister, Kate, decides to apply for the job of Jeremy's housekeeper. She wants to find him guilty but doesn't realize she will end up searching for the real killer. She neve suspects who really killed Helen. I absolutely loved reading this book. I can't wait to read more by Barbara Goss. Clever who done it As usual, Barbara Goss has written an impressive story that kept me enthralled to the very end. I just had to find out the who and the why of the murder but was kept guessing throughout. There are so many twists and turns in this story and thank goodness they all come together to answer to your question, "who was the murderer?" Of course there is a blossoming romance and I had to find out what would happen with that too. I also enjoyed the narration by Roberto Scarlato and his voice acting is that good that one knows exactly which character is talking without having to think about it. An audiobook version was provided by the author at no cost and this is my honest and unbiased review. Lots of Good Drama I got this ARC via audiobook boom. I enjoyed this story. Jeremy is a strong man and does what is right. He has good morals and is just what Kate needs. The entire story flows very well and shows mans flaws without being over dramatic. It also teaches the lesson of prayer. That is a powerful message. The sadness is overshadowed by the joy. The narration fit the story. He does each voice well and you can tell who is talking. Love this series and await the next book. I hope there are more than one more. There are lots of characters in the book who need their own story. LOVED THIS BOOK FROM START TO FINISH!! Where does The Housekeeper's Proposal rank among all the audiobooks youve listened to so far? One of my favorites, I loved it! I loved the romance and that it was a clean romance novel! The suspense kept me on my toes the entire time and I never guessed the ending (which I usually do)I really loved this book! Who was your favorite character and why? I have to say that Jeremy and Kate are equally my favorites. Jeremy because he was so swoon worthy with his convictions and of course because he is so handsome :) Which character as performed by Roberto Scarlato was your favorite? Roberto did a wonderful job with all of the characters but again, my favorite would be his performance of Jeremy. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? I loved the entire book - I can't give away my favorite part because it would spoil it. Any additional comments? This book was so enjoyable for me from start to finish. I LOVE romance novels and I struggle to find books in this genre that are not all about sex.

Chapin Narrator: Susan Fouche Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 14 mins Language: English Release date: 09-15-17 Publisher: T.K. Chapin Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: When Katie's work as a photographer takes her back to her hometown of Newport, Washington for a wedding, Katie runs into a part of her past she thought was over. Can an old flame be rekindled? Or are some things just better left in the past? From the award-winning and best-selling Inspirational Christian Romance Author T.K. Chapin comes a story of love, faith, and family that will keep you listening to see what happens next. Members Reviews: One Sunday Drive One of the most powerful and profound things in this story was the description of Nathan's painting. I was blown away when Joe said the bark had specks of crimson in it and it represented the pain that is required for growth. Growth was what One Sunday Drive was about. Growing beyond all the hurt of the past to realize you have a bright future ahead of you if you are willing to trust God. Yes, this whole story was about growth and trusting in God's plan for your life when your trust level has been depleted. Katie and Joe had so much to look forward too, but sometimes we have to peel back the layers of the past to move forward into our future. We hang on to what could have been instead of allowing ourselves to see what God wants us to have now. Katie and Joe needed to see the future and all the beauty it held for them. I will say that I did not like the story as much as the other books in the series because I felt there was so much more to explore with Katie and Joe's relationship that a short story could not do it justice. Second Chances It was intriguing how they all came back together. Also they tried to deny their feelings but the Lord kept bringing incidence s It was Ingrid G It was intriguing how they tried to deny their feelings and yet incidences would come up to make the feelings resurface. The Lord kept reminding them. It kept interesting with the Inn as the focus on the wedding. I recommend to any age. Wonderful story. Love this series, even though it means I need to buy stock in Kleenex. For some reason these heartwarming stories about life and God make me cry, but I wouldn't miss them. Now to get the next book. I have really enjoyed this series I have really enjoyed this series. It deals with real life struggles and issues. I recommend this book very highly Wonderful series I've so enjoyed reading this series. The love these characters have for God and for each other feels so real. I know my faith grows each time I read one of these stories.

Title: Finding Love: A Sweet Christian Romance Subtitle: Love's Enduring Promise, Book 2 Author: T.K. Chapin Narrator: Kandi Peppers Format: Unabridged Length: 2 hrs and 47 mins Language: English Release date: 06-25-15 Publisher: T.K. Chapin Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 8 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: "Once I realized what my heart wanted, I knew I wanted to be with you." If the last three years has taught Rebecca anything, it's that there are no decent men left, or at least in the city she lives in. All the men are either womanizing, arrogant, or the worst - downright lazy. Rebecca would rather keep her loneliness and rocky road ice cream nights than suffer another letdown. Enter Jonathan, the boss. Between the constant flirting and the close encounters over the years Rebecca and Jonathan have more heat between them than a hot July afternoon. Fun and games in the office is a great way to pass time, but doesn't help those cold and lonely nights at the top of Rebecca's high rise in downtown Spokane. When she meets Michael, a decent and charming man, Jonathan suddenly begins to show interest beyond the office, but is it because he has a real passion for her? Or is he just scared to lose the office flirting he had become accustomed with? Rebecca is more confused than ever and even more so after a date with Michael and the immediate connection she felt with him. Torn between two men, Rebecca must determine who she wants to be with without losing them both in the process. A story of love, a story of growth, and a story of faith. Members Reviews: Little Depth and an Unlikable Main Character Rebecca is stunned to find the years are passing her by, and she hasnât found the man for her yet. She thinks it could be Jonathan, her boss. Theyâre friends who can tell each other anything, and itâs fun to flirt back and forth, but Jonathan has a steady girlfriend. When she meets Michael, he gets her attention, but heâs a Christian, and his moral values get in the way of what Rebecca expects. Is there a God, and how can Rebecca find out for sure? I read THE PERFECT CATCH in the same series and enjoyed it, but I didnât find this one nearly as good. I found it pretty hard to find anything to like about Rebecca and couldnât understand what Michael saw in her. I didnât see the relationship grow, and it didnât feel real to me. The book had little depth, and it was very short. The ending was blah, sterile, unemotional, and a letdown. Awesome read! I couldn't put it down! Being a single, Christian woman in a secular world is hard! This book captured every emotion I've felt being a Christian and trying to date! A really well written novel What a change she makes This is a great love story. Would she ever find someone??? Would he ever recover from the death of his first wife??? What about that boss??? All of these questions create wonderful tension throughout this book. I like this authors style and highly recommend this book. I was given a copy in exchange for an honest review. Great read! A shorter read than the last one I read by TK but still great. The author has a great imagination and brings the story to life. The main gal reminded me of my older sister that is single, I think people should hold onto hope for their own life even when they begin to get a little older. Looking forward to the next one Finding Love I really like this author. I like this series too. I feel like the Lord is using this author to speak to people. He is great.

For better or worse. Turning his back on his reckless lifestyle, former frat boy Clay Walsh has settled down to run an antique shop in a small Midwestern college town... and to pursue lofty and outdated theories on love and romance. But when Amber Hewson, a free-spirited woman with a gypsy soul, rents the apartment above his shop, Clay can't help being attracted to her spontaneous and passionate embrace of life. Amber also finds herself surprisingly drawn to Clay, but his ideas about relationships are unusual to say the least, and they bring to light her own deep wounds and fears about love. They say opposites attract, but can Clay and Amber move beyond their differences and their pasts to attempt an "old fashioned" courtship? Members Reviews: I am a grown man, and I loved this story Would you listen to Old Fashioned again? Why? Absolutely. It was a beautifully written book that gives you hope for relationships and inspires you, as a man, to aspire to something more. The reader does a FANTASTIC job using inflection and different voices to make the story unique and beautiful. What did you like best about this story? That it is a hopeful story that is neither condemning nor permissive. As a guy, it inspires me to hold onto boundaries and to treat women with respect and dignity. It is a beautiful story that runs completely contrary to the modus operandi of romance movies/stories these days. I frankly hate romance books, but I loved this story. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? The main character Clay's story largely mirrored my own. I love the different threads that run through the story and how neither the characters nor the story are one dimensional. Amazing! This book was fantastic! It was sweet and fun and romantic and quirky. Now I can't wait to see the movie! Amazing! I absolutely love this book. It is definitely my favorite book. I recommend watching the movie first, read the book and then watch the movie again inorder to fully grasp this wonderful story. I feel as if the movie gives visual aid to to the story, helping you to better understand certain aspects while the book gives more backstory.

Annie's boyfriend Jake has severed his corporate life in Cincinnati and is jumping headlong into sustainable farming on the land next door. Their new relationship is wonderful - but can it last? As they take steps forward, a paralyzing fear of abandonment threatens to destroy her trust in Jake. As Annie works to save the old stone house, she finds letters written during World War II that reveal a family mystery and an Italian connection. Her grandmother is hesitant to uncover the secret, afraid of what it might mean to her family's name if the truth is laid bare. Comments from a nosy neighbor solidify Annie's fears about herself, and when Beulah agrees for Annie to travel to Italy to search out the family mystery, Annie is happy for the time away to sort out all her feelings. In the meantime, Beulah is left with an unexpected Italian-Catholic houseguest who wreaks havoc with Beulah's Baptist ways and country routine. As the family mystery in Italy unfolds, Annie is forced to face her own past. She is ultimately faced with a choice: Will she let history sabotage the future? Members Reviews: An engrossing story of discovering one's heritage. An absolutely riveting and heart-warming story that's impossible to put down! I love stories that unfold through different modes of narration, especially in non-linear ways, and Guarded definitely impressed on that account. While the story unfolds, Annie's family's back-story is built through the inclusion of newly-discovered letters, which creates a truly rich and multi-dimensional experience for the reader. I'm a huge fan of history, specifically WWII-era, and am always a sucker for investigating family mysteries. Once again, Mrs. Correll delivers for her readers! I would highly recommend this work. Enjoyable A very good read. Realistic characters and events enables the reader to connect at an emotional level with most of the characters. The history, visual descriptions & the bit of mystery all blend together to pull the reader into the story & feel a bond with the main characters. I would recommend the book to my friends. Full of nice surprises... The story continues on May Hollow Road with Annie finding old, war-time letters hidden away in the old stone house that belongs to her family. The letters will lead Annie on a great adventure and forever change her family and another family overseas. Will Annie open herself up to love or will she continue to hide behind those walls around her heart?Guarded is a quick read and keeps you turning the pages, ready to see what will happen next. This second installment in the May Hollow Trilogy doesn't disappoint! Very enjoyable I love stories where long lost letters lead us back to another time. We learn of challenges during war times as well as family values, tradition and love. Brings back memories of stories I heard as a child as well. Great Book! Guarded is a delightful follow up to Grounded. There are secrets to be revealed and a heartbreaking love story that unfolds that had my heart hurting as I read. The trip to Italy was really amazing to read, especially how everything was able to come together.

Born and raised on sprawling Texas land, Margaret O'Brien prides herself on her competence as a rancher. But her father believes she's made for more than just dawn-to-dusk work. He wants her to have the love of a good man, to raise children, to build a life. But Margaret gave up such dreams years ago. She's convinced no man would have her, that the ranch is her life now. So when Margaret's father hires Daniel Cutler as a new foreman, she's frustrated and suspicious. Then an overheard conversation links him with a gang of bank robbers, and she's downright worried. Daniel swears he's not involved, but Margaret's not convinced. She knows the man still has secrets. But would a criminal be so kind and talk so convincingly of his faith? As a series of tragic "accidents" threatens all she holds dear, Margaret must decide what to trust: her own ears, her best judgment...or what her heart keeps telling her. From the author of the best-selling Blue Moon Promise...an exciting tale of danger, romance, and faith played out under Texas stars. Critic Reviews: "Romantically tense, but with just the right touch of danger, this cowboy love story is surprisingly clever - and pleasingly sweet." (USAToday.com for Blue Moon Promise) Members Reviews: Awesome story! Wonderful story! I loved it! Worth it! Get it!! :)) It's one of my absolute favorites! Ruined by the narration This may be a good story, but with this narrator it is horrible. Most of the male voices sound more feminine than the female voices. I just couldn't get past it.

Title: Broken Together Subtitle: An Amish Romance Author: Marisa Meyer Narrator: Michael Stuhre Format: Unabridged Length: 46 mins Language: English Release date: 05-11-17 Publisher: Marisa Meyer Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Broken Together: An Amish Love Story Hannah has a secret that is eating her alive, and knowing what she does, she couldn't think of accepting Abel's offer to marry. She was far too broken and tainted. All it took was one error in judgment and her life was ruined, not so much to the naked eye, but before God. And living with the horrible secret she has had to keep all to herself over the past three years since her return to her home town, it has become more and more difficult. Abel had been in love with Hannah since when they were young, growing up as best friends, he never stopped dreaming that she would one day become his wife. But life changes, people change, and it's becoming more and more obvious to him that Hannah was no longer the innocent girl he used to know. But then he was also no longer the same man. Will their flaws drive a wedge between them or will their love become the glue that binds them? Members Reviews: Broken Together Sometimes two wrongs can make it right. Both of them had secrets and that made them find the strength to make them right. Now they are whole. not yet I just got the book and haven't had time to read it yet. I think it is really stupid to ask for a rating on a book so soon Another new author for me Marisa Meyer is able to tell a story and make us feel the emotional pain her character's are in, that is a sign of a good writer. I found two or three editing error but they did not distract from the storyline. I hope to be able to read more of her novellas in the future. I hope you enjoy this short story that takes about thirty minutes to read. Sorta, Kinda, Okayish Very Short, very narrow plot, pretty bad editing. Hannah has a secret. Abel has a secret. They love each other but do not trust enough to share their secrets. Pretty straight-forward. I was surprised at her way of dealing with her pain. Did not expect that in this setting. Live and read and learn, I guess.

Throw in a stalker and the trip turns into a nightmare. Will she be able to get through the nightmare to the reality of a love that lives forever? Members Reviews: Enjoyed the book In talking to my daughter, she confided in me that she goes through a morning process after she reads a good book. She knows that she won't spend any more time with the characters and knows she will miss them. I thought about that and realized that I feel the same way! Recently, I have re-read some of my better kindle books and decided that I really enjoyed the few titles I had from this author. Finding this book, I bought it. I can totally say to all that the characters in this book were real and will be missed--totally will be a re-read in the future! I even learned some important info!!! Hopefully won't need it, but when I'm riding on an elevator, will remember!!!!! I won't ruin it for you--if your looking for a good book, this author won't disappoint you LDSNovel Enjoyed reading this second book. Not a romance fan but liked the storyline and the characters. Roseanne did a great job developing them. Fun and quick to read. sweet romance with a twist of danger Love Comes Calling by Roseanne Wilkins is a sweet romance with a twist of danger. The writing is well done and you will find it a great entertainment for any time of the year, be it by the chimney or the swimming pool. I enjoyed the tale and the way it was told. Love Comes Calling is clean and a wholesome tale of a thirty-something woman who is marked for death. Cassi, is in charge of her company's activities and events. She books an event with Thomas, her ex-fiancé, in Las Vegas and he wants her to sign some papers. Her flight is late and the hotel gives her room to someone else. So instead of going to hunt for a room somewhere else, she manages to steal the room from another woman who hasn't shown up yet, as it is 2:30 am. When she gets to the room, a knock comes to her door and two little girls need a bed for the night. Their aunt is drunk and she lets the girls crash in her bed. The next morning, their handsome widower father comes for them. That is how Cassi meets Jaron. Now that is just the beginning. From then on, a fall from a boat to the water, a broken elevator's cords, and exhaust poisoning are only a few of the adventures she has which Jaron helps her through. The characters are sweet and caring, except for the killer and he who wants her killed. Some beautiful scenes in the Mormon Las Vega's temple and in surrounding areas are beautifully depicted in this tale. It has LDS morals and some of the church's view point on sin and God. Though it is not preachy, it doesn't hide the truth about the characters. You will find, good LDS people and bad ones. The chance for redemption and love is present in this book. Â Fun and suspenseful I really enjoyed it! It was one of those books I didn't want to put down but was easy to follow if I had to take a break (I had to sleep sometime!). Written so you didn't have to know much about the LDS church to understand what was going on in the story.

Members Reviews: A lovely little inspirational romance This is a great series of inspirational novellas and I really enjoyed the creative story line of this one. Enjoyed the voice of the Amber Quick- Any additional comments? Impressed by the voice of the narrator, Amber Quick - enjoyed story - Sweet story AAAAA***** Sweet but not realistic Is there anything you would change about this book? Yes, I like Christian inspirational romances but this book and all the books in this a Year of Wedding Novellas that started in December with a Bride in December are touting this unrealistic idea that God has "picked out the one" and you just need to "pray" and you will somehow magically know. Newsflash, that is not true and I do not like these myths being perpetuated in these books/ How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable? It was enjoyable as it, What three words best describe Amber Quicks performance? sweet, okay, Was A February Bride worth the listening time? so-so Any additional comments? Good series but I think it contributes to an unrealistic fantasy of finding the "one" that "God Picked out for Me" that will unfortunately make people miss reality and discovering the point that you become the "right" one and another "right" one whom is emotionally and mentally healthy and you get together and have a healthy marriage. It is two people who want to be together that come together by choice not because "God Made me do it" or because you "need" to but because you are whole in Christ and you love and want to be with this person. I hope people can get that difference and just enjoy the romantic parts of the story and see the virtue and value in being honest with each other that I think the author is trying to convey in this romantic scenario and working past the differences. It is about the marriage not the fancy wedding that is over in 3 hours and then you look at the guy and go what was I thinking.

Title: Soulspark Author: Eliza Tilton Narrator: Lacey Meyerhoff Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 55 mins Language: English Release date: 10-25-17 Publisher: Eliza Tilton Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: A YA inspirational romance that will rip out your heart and stitch it back together. Dealing with the loss of her mother, 17-year-old Jessica Stone tries to find an escape from pain by secretly medicating herself with Xanax, but the anxiety increases, crushing her and her grades. Then she meets Caleb Jonas, the pastor's son at her mother's church. Between his cute dimples and love of fast cars, Jessica is completely smitten, and the feeling is mutual. But dating a Christian boy isn't easy. He doesn't party, and he never goes past first base. Jessica struggles with his faith, since it makes her question her own, but for the first time since her mother's death, she can breathe. Life is finally shifting into a state of happiness. But the differences between them grow until one act of betrayal threatens to rip them apart forever. Hurt and love collide into a storm neither can break free from, and Jessica must decide if she's ready to trust her heart, one last time. Critic Reviews: "This young romance is pure and so strong you'll be left with a deep mark in your heart and soul." (Bookaholic & More Blog) Members Reviews: Love this! Wow,I did not expect that twisted ending.The first few chapters were kinda slow but when it picked up you were on an emotional roller coaster as these teen learn to deal with past hurts that have left them scarred and present life that continuously challenges them to either trust or give up. Their reactions and situations are real life issues that many teens go through(except for the twisted ending). It reminded me of some of the struggles my daughter dealt with in high school and also reminded it me a bit of the movie To Save a Life. With the hurt of losing her parent,Jess's life is slowly swirling out of control yet she finds herself rooted and gains some stability in the arms of Caleb.Jess slowly finds her way back to God after hating him after she lost her mom.However,trusting God when your world seams to be crashing around you over and over is hard,But Caleb has a past that keeps him a little guarded and one night when things get heated faith in each other gets tested. Can they finally learn to fully trust each other or will they let their insecurity tear them apart? Will meeting Caleb be what brings Jess back to trusting God or push her to away from God forever? Wonderful book! I loved this book! The characters were complex enough to draw me into their lives and make me truly care about what happened to them. Having recently lost my mother myself, I could really relate to the turmoil that Jessica was feeling. Life is hard and I think, if we are honest, we would all admit that we have struggled with being angry with God at some point. Jessica's story offers glimpses of where the road can lead if you wander too far off course, without being too graphic for even an early teen audience, while fulling exploring her journey to find and love. No other word but WOW! This book had me locked in from start to finish. The dialogue was crisp and not forced at all. The plot was very clean and always moving forward. The characters were believable and very human. All in all, it was a great read! What the characters go through, from love and loss, and all the emotions that come along with that are inspiring, to say the least.

Rachel's cheerful outlook, in spite of her blindness, and her appealing, uncomplicated lifestyle beckon Philip amid the high-paced existence of his New York career. Philip's newfound knowledge of the true reason for Rachel's loss of sight spurs him on to uncover what he can about the possibility for a cure. In Lancaster County, Rachel has her own ideas about the way her vision might be restored, and it doesn't include the local healer and his black box. Rachel firmly believes the God she serves is the only one who can grant her sight, but as the memories of the trauma she suffered begin to resurface, Rachel questions whether she can bear the agonizing road to recovery. Drawn back to Lancaster County over the Christmas holidays, Philip struggles with the vast gulf separating him from the beautiful Plain woman. Rachel has suffered unbearable heartache; will his growing affection for her bring only more of the same? Or must Philip and Rachel sacrifice a future together for the sake of all they know and love? Members Reviews: Disappointing This is the 2nd book in the series, and plot events are not resolved. It seems as if Beverly Lewis is luring the reader to buy the next book. The book moves slowly. Nothing is resolved. Leah and Jonas's situation is beyond sad. They were somewhat faithless for people of faith. I am very disappointed in this series. I won't get the 3rd book. WELL WRITTEN and GETS TO YOUR SOUL I have read the series Abrams daughters. They may seem odd to us who do not live the Amish, PLAIN, lifestyle, but for those who do, it is very REAL. The writing for all the books was superb, and I thouroughly enjoyed the plots and twist and turns. I have always enjoyed reading about Amish People, and wonder if I would have the strength that they have, day after day. Beverly Lewis is a gifted writer and this book is not full of 'fillers'. It seems true to the lifestyle, and the hurts, loves, and choices other people we may not be accustomed to- have to make...just like us. The Betrayal How can sisters become stranger's? Through betrayal only. Such sadness but the good Lord will find a way to help them overcome. Let's look to the next story to find the answers. Good Storyline and Characters. Good Christian truth well presented even though some issues are hard to deal with. My only problem is the storyline dragged on to long. A Peek into the Amish Life wonderful read! A peek into the Amish lifestyle. Truly enjoyed this book, and ordered another by same author.

Members Reviews: Wonderful Romantic Tension Kelly is in the Colonial American Christian Writers group and I am so looking forward to her colonial Amish books when they release. In the meantime, I listened to this as my first "read" of her work. She knocked my socks off (well if it weren't summer she would have!) Beautiful voice, gripping story line, great characterization, and the best romantic tension I have seen since Deanne Gist. Not your average Amish novel! I highly recommend this book and this writer and just downloaded another of her audible.com books. I saw she has a novella with several other authors, including Cindy Woodsmall. I do wonder why when I searched "Amish" this book did not pull up. I think I have found another favorite author! Looking forward to listening to her next book and many more after that one! best of the series the story wasnt typical it was delightfull and funny i enjoyed it and have listend several times since i bought it ive listened twice the story grabbed me from the beginning not a typical beginning of an amish romance ive followed this series and was suprised by jacobs actions from the eairlier book and i have listened twice so far i do that sometimes but not so soon after i listened the first time this is my fav at this time great listen Wonderful So very enjoyable a listen. I enjoy sewing while the story unwinds. Not as detailed as some of the others by this author, but soulful. Amish? I have read many, many Amish books and if you are looking for true Amish fiction don't waste your money. This is modern fiction under the gize of Amish fiction. Very disappointed.

But her childhood sweetheart, Luke Lambright, fell in love with racing cars during his rumspringa and decided to leave Wells Landing. Emily prays for his return, but as the months go by, she begins spending time with another young man - a man who may not be as exciting as Luke, but perhaps he's exactly what she needs. Elam Rhiel knows that Emily has always been in love with Luke, but he is certain that he could be the loyal, steady husband Emily deserves. Then, just as Emily begins to fall for him, Luke returns and complicates her feelings. Now they all must learn that the greatest love requires the greatest sacrifice. Critic Reviews: "A sweet contemporary romance with lovable characters." (RT Book Reviews) Members Reviews: Love Amy Lillard! Another Wonderful Book! MY THOUGHTS ON THIS BOOK We return to the good Amish folks in the Wells Landing community of Oklahoma for Emilyâs story. Being a Bishopâs daughter, Emily Ebersol was sure to marry a good standing Amish man and live happily ever after as an Amish wife. But when her longtime childhood sweetheart, Luke Lambright fell more in love with racing cars than her, and left the Amish faith, Emilyâs world was shattered. Then Emily started spending time at the Riehl house helping out because James Riehl had been injured, thus spending time with Jamesâ son Elam. Could Elam be the man for her since Luke never returned home? But then suddenly Luke does return home and Emilyâs life is in a whirlwind! This story takes a different twist that the first book. Emily and Luke had been sweethearts since childhood, so it was no question that they would marry when they were old enough, but then Luke has to jump the fence, taking care of that! I enjoyed the time Emily spent at the Riehl home, because she was so good to the dad, James. Jamesâ family had had him closed up in his dark bedroom since his injury, not wanting him to have a life. Emily had a different idea, and started bringing James out of his dark den, making Elam furious. But James loved it, causing a lot of tension in this household! I loved Jamesâ character. He was fun, and so adorable after Emily started letting him out into the house more. But I donât want to say any more, because you need to read the book to see what happens! And if you enjoy Amish fiction, this is a must read for you! And check out books One and Three in this same posting. I received this book from the author to read and review. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commissionâs 16 CFR, Part 55. Great second book of the Wells Landing series Emily Ebersole is the bishops daughter. Everyone expects her to marry a faithful Amish man. She has been in love with Luke Lambright since they were children. Luke surprises her by leaving the Ordung to peruse becoming a race car driver a passion he discovered during rumspringa. Emily is prays for Luke to return. Emily' s father wants Emily and Elam Rhiel to get together. Elam is loyal, a good man, faithful and a good provider.

Title: Peace Subtitle: A Crittenden County Christmas Novel Author: Shelley Shepard Gray Narrator: Bernadette Dunne Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 59 mins Language: English Release date: 10-22-13 Publisher: HarperAudio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 18 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: After a year of secrets and scandal, will this Amish community finally find peace under the bright promise of Christmas? Beth Byler has a secret. Ever since she met Englischer Chris Ellis while helping out at the Yellow Bird Inn, she can't stop thinking about him. She knows a relationship could never go anywhere Chris was working undercover in Crittenden County as a DEA agent. That meant he faced danger daily and carried a gun, making him completely unsuitable for an Amish woman like herself. But she knew he felt the attraction, too. It was the reason he left so suddenly, promising never to see her again. Then, three days before Christmas, while Beth is taking care of the inn, Chris returns. This time, he is bleeding and in need of a place to hide. Against her better judgment, Beth takes him in and tends to his wounds. She also promises to keep his presence a secret. Before long, it becomes clear that nothing between them has changed a relationship is inevitable. But are they ready to sacrifice everything for this chance at love? Members Reviews: DON'T NEGLECT THIS FINAL EPISODE! Any additional comments? SURPRISE! This is actually the conclusion of the Crittendon County, Kentucky series! If you felt a little unfulfilled as I did with Number 3 "Found," do get this one! It is Christmas, time for sharing love, and hope. In it, Gray takes us through the grieving process of several affected characters in the shocking aftermath of Perry Borntrager's murder, including and especially, the son and family of the "murderer" whose anger was understandably human, but whose strategy for self survival was so contrary to the Amish values of honesty, admitting wrong, personal responsibility, family solidarity, I felt a bit sick, and very sympathetic toward the son's mourning (mourning includes anger and grief) steps. This was incomplete for me, as the "murderer" was willing to have the blame fall on his son, even if it meant an untrue conviction, subsequent jail sentence, and throwing over of a father's hopes for his family! It didn't seem consistent within the character, and he was given no voice to express what went on inside. This part of the story, how the "murderer" was dealt with was given only brief brushing, and for me, did not well support the later happy ending. Maybe there's a lesson there, that when we cannot forgive ourselves, the love and forgiveness of those whom we've harmed helps us to that state. The bulk of the story, which gives such weight to the title "Peace" is dedicated to (darling!) Beth, who is helping out her friend, Frannie while away for Christmas with new husband, former Chicago investigator and friend to Mose, local sheriff, Luke. Even though Beth says she can't cook or clean very well, she seems to grace the Yellow Bird Inn with a warm, upright and attractive presence, that makes her look very much at home. Truly, I am so taken with her character, I wish I could purchase lessons! Chris Ellis, undercover DEA agent, who showed up previously when Beth was helping out Frannie, has been badly injured after his cover was blown.

This is definitely one of the nicest Hollywood love stories I have ever heard. The two main characters co star on a TV show and fall in love on screen and in real life!!! There are a few twists and turns. The grandmother was funny and everyone was so patient with her. The whole story was very uplifting. There are Bible verses intertwined throughout the story. The narrator did a great job bringing the story to life. I always enjoy a HEA ending! This audiobook was provided free of charge in exchange for my honest unbiased opinion. Great Book!

Spend Christmas with the Colburns in this inspirational holiday novella. If you like the traditional setting and sweet romance of Amish fiction but are looking for something new, try Christmas with the Colburns today to jump into a fast-paced story of Christmastime in a hidden land. Holiday recipe included! Members Reviews: Christmas What was one of the most memorable moments of Christmas with the Colburns? A beautiful Christmas story with a powerful message. it is important to realize that just because things don't turn out the way we want it does mean it is a bad thing. Lydia, learned to embrace the positive things, trust that God always has a better plan, family are those whom you choose to embrace in your circle and Christmas is about sharing the love of Christ. A Delightful Novella forthe Holidays and Christmas "Christmas with the Colburns" was a charming, sweet novella. I like that it was clean and I especially enjoyed revisiting characters I've been familiar with before. Lydia is such a wonderful person. I love the way Isabella gave her a book that had belonged to her mother as she tries to keep her own family traditions strong. This book sparked the Christmas spirit in me as well. There was a great message here. And for me that message was that it doesn't matter where you are and who you spend the holidays with. It's about unconditional love and giving oneself to others and remembering the true meaning of Christmas. Things may not always turn out the way one expects but minus expectations, they turn out the way they're meant to be. Keely Brooke Keith is a wonderful author and I love the Cherry Salad recipe and will be trying it for the holidays. What a delightful gift. Kate Fisher's narration was perfection. She has a nice tone in her voice with the right inflections for Lydia. She does an exceptional job and I could listen to her read all day. I hope there'll be more of this series and if so, I hope she continues to narrate it. I definitely recommend giving this book a listen as well as the "Uncharted" series. All are terrific. Audiobook received in exchange for an honest review. Touching and Delightful Christmas Story! "Christmas with the Colburns" was such a wonderful novella that will get you in the Christmas spirit! I enjoyed the clean romance and the Biblical references. The author weaves a touching story that makes you realize the true meaning of Christmas. Great Novella I've really enjoyed the Uncharted series and was excited to find out there was a Christmas themed novella out. I loved reading more from Lydia's perspective. I really liked her character in the first book and was interested to see how things were going for her now. I also enjoyed the flashbacks to Lydia's mother's youth and watching her romance story unfold. I listened to the audiobook edition which I received free in exchange for an honest review.

Unfortunately, he is only there for a visit. What will happen to the young lovers as his assignment is over? Members Reviews: Not at all good Nothing was believable in this novel...the language, characters, actions or plot. I cannot even imagine that an Amish boy, upon first meeting an Amish girl would say "You are the real deal." The female main character professes to be looking only for God's will, yet says (again upon first meeting the boy) "Let's be bad." Not only is it totally unbelievable, but it is poorly written. It reads much like a high school creative writing assignment. I rarely fail to finish a book, but this is one that I just couldn't plod through. It was not worth the price, which was free. Amazing Apples An interesting concept for a story. Fiction from beginning to end. Hardly believable in most aspects. 300 miles in a buggy in one day? Never happen. An Amish girl in a white dress. VERY unlikely. Apple trees that grow from seed to production in less than a year? How bout 4-5 years from planting to first harvest. Fiction all the way. Would definitely not recommend to anyone. Editing is lacking. Too many grammatical errors. Doesn't flow and names are often wrong. The last paragraph should be "Thomas has a baby ..." not Henry. Need to go back and proofread. Two Stars Pretty simple plot and some misspellings which bug me, but it was OK as a free read. it was a great book it held my attention and was very good it was a great book it held my attention and was very good..i loved it and it was able to really make me want to not put it down i loved it

She's pushing 30 and has a bit of a weight problem. But most of all, she is looking for love in all the wrong places. For her, the wrong place is thinking she could handle missionary life with a young Indiana Jones look alike. Her complete failure to understand herself unfolds as she realizes the treasure she has been missing is right under her nose. Members Reviews: A Sweet and Entertaining Love Story Would you consider the audio edition of Cherry Cobbler to be better than the print version? I ran the gamete of emotions on listening to this audio-book. There was a great deal of laughter, amusement and misty-eyed moments on my part which led me to thoroughly enjoy this book. I especially like the Audio format as it allowed me to listen while I worked on some chores around the house as well as a bit of sewing work I had on my desk to do! I also really liked how the reader chose different voices for each of the characters. I am a big Kindle reader though I am moving towards Audio format as it works better for my busy life right now! What other book might you compare Cherry Cobbler to and why? The Weddings by Bella Series by Janice Thompson. I thought it had the humor of this series but with more Spiritual depth. They are both from the girl's point of view. Have you listened to any of Rachael Wests other performances before? How does this one compare? I have not listened to her other performances, but I certainly liked her performance on this one, I might even seek out other books voiced by her. Any additional comments? Cherry is going through the awkwardness of finding a partner in life and ministry. I liked Cherry, the character is not only believable, but I felt a lot like her when I was about 23/24. Most of my friends had married young (18-21) and were popping up babies all around me. Cherry is rather likable, though there were times I wanted to shake her a little bit, those aspects of her nature were not at all far fetch either. In fact the world that Ms. Reardon creates seems like a place I have been before. I felt that in particular, the author did a very good job fleshing out the male characters which is not always the case for Christian Fiction I am sad to say. Light Hearted and Refreshing Story I thoroughly enjoyed Cherry Cobbler . . . a story about a young woman named Cherry, who thinks she has a weight problem . . . who worries that she's "over the hill" . . . and that she will never find her Prince Charming . . . so much so that she really doesn't know what he looks like when she meets up with him. I love the refreshing way this book was written . . . a Christian book, but not in the least "preachy" . . . but instead revealing the everyday doubts and flaws that all of us have . . . This was a surprisingly good find for me, and I'm looking forward to more in the Blackberry County Chronicles series.

Her best friend, Sarah, gives her a train ticket so she can take her place as the mail order bride of Peter Mullins, constable of Hunter's Grove. Pete turns out to be a fine gentleman and he marries her and brings her to his farmhouse. Every domestic duty Elaina performs turns into a disaster. She doesn't like the house or the chores he'd burdened her with. She wonders if she should have the unconsummated marriage annulled even though there is a definite physical attraction between them. A rich man, Brock, steps into the picture. Is he her escape route, or will she find a way to reconcile with Pete? Members Reviews: Another Great One! Another great mail order bride novel by the talented Barbara Goss! Elaina is witness to a bank robbery in her hometown, and is shocked to recognize one of the bandits as a man close to her family. He threatens to kill her if she identifies him. She confides in her best friend, Sarah, who offers to give her the train ticket she was sent by a man in Hunter's Grove, Kansas. Elaina realizes this is her only option and accepts, hoping that the man she will meet there will protect her. Peter is the constable for Hunter's Grove, and owns a dilapidated farmhouse outside of town. He's happy to find Elaina so kind and beautiful, and agrees to marry her immediately. He brings her home where things don't go as well as he'd hoped. Elaina can't cook, and the old house seems to be too much for her to handle. Immediately she brings up an annulment, but Peter wants to fight to make the marriage work. I love books filled with descriptions of domestic duties during that time, and this one has plenty. I really enjoyed Elaina and Peter's personalities, and the book had plenty of action and villains, as well as the romance. It kept me hooked the entire time. There are appearance by other couples from the series, but this can be read as a standalone. Reagan Boggs was an excellent narrator as always, she pulled me right into the story without overacting. I was provided a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review. Totally captivating I honestly couldn't say which book in this series I have enjoyed the most as each one is as good as any of the others as well as being extremely enjoyable and captivating too. This is due to the talented writing of Barbara Goss. In the audiobook version, Reagan Boggs once again helps bring this story to life with her amazing voice. I found myself engrossed, amused, saddened and hopeful at various times and I wouldn't have it any other way. Barbara and Reagan, thank you so much for putting me in the centre of Elaina and Pete's story and keeping me there. I really loved this book. The audiobook version was provided by the author, narrator, or publisher at no cost and this is my unbiased review. unexpected bride Barbara does a great job drawing you in and keeping you wanting more. This was about a constable ordering a mail order bride and getting one he didn't order. Pete sent a train ticket for Sarah but her best friend saw a bank robbery and was threatened. Sarah have Alana the ticket instead. I loved the story.

However, when the man gets too sick to work, Griffin sends for Izzy, whom Griffin thinks is the old man's wife. When the girl turns out to be the man's beautiful and kind daughter, Griffin finds himself torn between continuing to wear the façade of a beast, or lowering his defenses and allowing Izzy's beauty to soften his soul. Can this beauty and this beast find love? Members Reviews: Fun read This book is an easy read. It shows that God can turn anger into love. I recommend this book to those who enjoy a good love story. Can't wait for more It was a wonderful reinvention of the fairy tale of Beauty and the Beast. Can a scar turn us into a beast? Can our perception of ourselves prevent us from being happy? This could be true if Griffin had not had a fortuitous encounter with a thief, which not only brought him an unpleasant surprise in his own store but will be the key to finding his happiness. Sometimes a good action is rewarded and sometimes even if you believe that God has left you alone, in reality God is preparing you for something better, you only need the right person to help you find what you have lost, be it your faith, your trust or your own heart. I recived this book as an ARC and it enchant me so much that i decided to review it!!! Wonderful Book With A Suggestion! This was a great book. I only wish this author would take a chance and write longer stories. She clearly has the skill and creativity to write longer books. I loved this story and could have seen it continue. I do feel that the author gets to a point in the story and gets a little tired. Then she rushes the last bit. I have read a number of her books and this seems to be a pattern. I would have loved a longer and more complete epilogue. As many books as she produces this should be something she works on. I love reading her work so would love to see this happen. Retelling of a classic This was my first book by this author. I didn't know she was a Christian writer until I started reading the book. I truly enjoyed it. The retelling of the classic Beauty and the Beast with a western back drop was refreshing. Izzy was adorable and Griffin, the beast, was written well. You find yourself rooting for him. I will be recommending this author to my Christian book club members.I received this book as an ARC and voluntarily wrote this review. Nicely done I really enjoyed the old west twist to this story. Well written and totally clean. Engaging characters, even the Beast. Recommended to all ages. I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

Turner McNeally's daughter has gone off to college, and her horse is demonstrating signs of loneliness. Rebecca Wilkinson's son hasn't spoken a word since his father's death, and the family counselor suggests a pet. What will Christmas bring these troubled hearts? And what is this gift from God that Turner McNeally keeps talking about? Members Reviews: I wish there were a sequel. Very inspirational! Very touching. Clean and cute. Believable. I liked the little boy and the college age daughter. Itwas religious without being sanctimonious. The Gift Review Loved the story of the boy and the horse. But the love story between man and woman that was woven in took away from that in my opinion. However, if you like love stories, I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Simple boring story I bought this book because of the reviews.. Unfortunetly I disagree with such great reviews. At first I thought this was going to be an inspirational story, but right when I thought it was going to start getting good it ended just like that! Like the author ran out of time and cut it short! Very disappointed!

Members Reviews: A Christmas story for adults What did you love best about The Christmas Star? You're not sure how the two characters will get together, especially with his dislike of Christmas and her desperate need for him to believe. What was one of the most memorable moments of The Christmas Star? The visit to the North Pole was fun. The sex scene should be read in bed on a cold night with someone to keep you warm. Which scene was your favorite? Nick on the back of the motorcycle hoping Noel doesn't kill him and reminding himself it's just a dream. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? It reminded me of the Christmas Clause so if you like it, you should like this, too. Any additional comments? I kept thinking Nick would have to replace Santa, especially with his name.

I highly recommend this book Heartwarming This was such a heartwarming, touching story. Katherine and Ryan both have had tragedy touch their lives. I enjoyed how the author brought them together and how faith helped them each in different ways. It took Ryan awhile to come to believe which made the story more realistic. I look forward to the next book in the series. I found the narrator fine for the female voices however the male voices were a bit difficult to get accustomed to.

Past Forward is a serial novel released weekly on Kindle. Members Reviews: Great reader of a terrific book! What did you love best about Past Forward? I have been reading this author since she first started writing. I have always loved her books. I was quite nervous about listening to this book and if the reader would live up to my impressions. Boy was I wonderfully surprised. What other book might you compare Past Forward to and why? I would compare this specific book to the Mitford Series but with another punch to it that the Mitford Series doesn't have. What does Sarah Pavelec bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Sarah brought Willow alive to me. She had the perfect voice and it was exactly like I pictured Willow's voice to sound. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? Honestly, I've read the entire series so I don't want to give anything away. The entire series is worth the read and can't wait until more gets on Audible. Any additional comments? This is a terrific author and I can't wait for more of her books to be on audible. Great story! Loved it! Wish Volume 2 was available to listen to. I liked the narrator as well. Ho-hum. Tedioius. Wearisome. I listened to the first book in the Aggie series by this author, and I was hooked! Since I couldn't get the rest on audio, I read the rest of that series. Then I was thrilled to see Past Forward on audio. But alas! It is very hum-drum, boring, blasé. The initial idea of a girl who was raised by her mother and had never even been in a car is a great story-line, but there's too much repetition of the same ideas. Get on with the story!

Chapin Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: This inspirational Christian romance story of two young hearts takes place around Valentine's Day and is the perfect book for anyone searching for an inspirational listen in the month of love. Nineteen-year-old Kyle Reynolds was just a pizza slinging delivery driver with a dream when he met Emily Hayden. She gave him a glimpse at love and stole his heart away without any hesitation. However, Emily had a secret. Not just any secret, but one that could and would change everything. A Chance at Love is a Christian romance that captures the sweet innocent side of young love that can still be found in young Christians today. A Christian romance novel that not only shows how God works things together for good in our life, but the spiritual growth of one young man. Members Reviews: Must read story of young love A Chance at Love, written by T.K. Chapin, is the perfect Christian Romance of young love especially at Valentine's Day! I enjoy this author's unique writing ability of storytelling throughout this book. As with many of Chapin's books, this is written in the first person and from the male character point of view, Kyle. Kyle is a deep thinking 19 year old and trying to find his way as a young adult; he encounters his godly grandma who encourages him along the way. I found that relationship especially endearing. The verse from Proverbs 16:3 "Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established," has been used as Kyle finds his way to the Cross for salvation and guidance as he tries to grow his relationship with the Lord. In the midst of finding Christ, he begins building a relationship with Emily. Young love is so sweet, but Kyle shows such a mature outlook throughout their growing relationship in his behavior and responses to struggles along the way. A true inspirational love story that has a foundation on Christ. Great love story for all ages. The entire story line is very good and well developed but all of a sudden I ... The only thing that kept me from giving this book 5 stars is that the end seemed to come too abruptly. The entire story line is very good and well developed but all of a sudden I came to the last few pages and things wrapped up very quickly -- almost too quickly. Otherwise, I loved the book. Five Stars What a awesome book Much good dialogue and inner musings Believable and well- conceived story. Much good dialogue and inner musings... Five Stars Great story love it

Goss Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 15 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Violet Jeffries meets Gavin McKenzie and she becomes confused and unsure of her love for her fiancé, Miles Croft. She breaks the betrothal and then discovers that Gavin has a hidden agenda. Miles comes to her rescue twice, but keeps his distance from her. Violet realizes her mistake - too late. She's lost the most loving and devoted man, and she fights to get him back. Miles Croft loved Violet with all this heart. He vows to never give his heart away again. It took him months to recover from the pain of her breakup, and now she seems to want him back. He'll protect his heart from her, for how could he ever trust her again? Members Reviews: True love wins all In this audiobook we have two main stories. The on-off love story of Violet and Miles and a kidnapping. So of course there will be two villains instead of one this time. I especially loved the way young Zoe had her own little protector. Very cute. And it just goes to show that true love wins all. The stories are clever, easy to listen to, interesting and well written. Scott Michael has an unusual voice and does justice to this audiobook. So, kudu's to both Barbara Goss and Scott Michael The audiobook version was provided by the author at no cost and this is my honest and unbiased review.my honest and unbiased review. loved it!!! True love always wins out in the end. Violet has to go through many struggles before she realizes that the heart always recognizes your one true love. This series of books and author never let's you down. Fantastic!! Eyes Bigger Than Stomach? Violet has found love but, in a rather modern conflict for its era but indicative of the strength of the woman, has been offered a job as a teacher (the calling she's yearned for) elsewhere and wants to take it. Miles' own career is taking off locally and he reluctantly agrees to a long distance romance. What he fears becomes reality as the fickleness of youth pushes Violet's exploring nature into an attraction with an older man and fellow teacher who has his own past and burdens. This love triangle results in some unusual actions and reactions and there are some side issues with other characters whose stories were told in previous volumes of this series. Because of the interrelationships among the characters, reading through the series will provide a depth of community and continuity, but this story stands well on its own. I had the joy of listening to the well-narrated AUDIObook so the drama unfolded like a radio play. Since I don't do spoilers, you will have to read this for yourself to see with whom Violet chooses to make her life. Hope I enjoyed listening to the book. Miles had loved Violet for 3 years, even though Violet broke up with Miles he still loves her. Violet was attacked twice by the same man, Miles saves her both times. Shadow of Hope A fantastic continuation of The Shadow Series, that can also be enjoyed as a stand alone story. I really enjoyed Miles and Violet's story. Barbara Goss delivers another wonderful tale.

Then tells him she has red spots with "stuff" leaking out. Followed real quickly with Owen trying to help her find her way home. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? I did. I sat in my driveway for two and a half hours just to finish it. Any additional comments? It just made me happy.

Max Legend breaks them all. Katie Green has big dreams. She's had them since she can remember and she has the lists to prove it. They include: Go to college. Graduate. Go to law school. Graduate. Don't date musicians! Become a lawyer. Marry. Stay married. Become partner at a law firm. Have three children. Buy a home. Raise children. Stay married. Be a good mom. She's accomplished the first four goals on her list and has no doubt the rest will be accomplished soon. Max Legend is the lead singer of a popular Christian rock band. He's kind, talented, and beyond gorgeous. He's also sure of his destiny, which includes sharing the good news of God's love through music. Someday he hopes to find an amazing woman willing to love him for who he is and what he does. Katie and Max meet one fateful night at The Attic, a club where Max's band is performing. After a surprising and amazing kiss, they go their separate ways. But their meeting was obviously divine intervention. They are continuously running into each other. Rather quickly they get to know one another, but Katie won't accept that there is anything more than friendship between her and Max. Can Katie break her dating rules and follow her heart or are she and Max destined to be nothing more than a one-hit wonder? Members Reviews: Sweet Max and Katie are a sweet couple. They meet as adults and seem to know right away that the attraction is mutual. Obstacles to overcome. Fears to resolve. Happy ever after in a sweet, clean romance. An enjoyable journey Katie Green has always followed her path and had strict rules for her life. She was just out of law school, looking for a job, and engaged to be married to Bentley, Check, check, check. Everything changed when she couldn't find a job and her engagement ends when she found out that her fiancé was cheating on her. She had also vowed never to date a musician. That changed when she met Max Legend, the lead singer in a Christian band. He is everything her fiancé wasn't, and she seems to keep running into Max everywhere. She agrees to be friends, but nothing more. He is also there when Katie's best friend Birdy, also a high school friend to Max, is accused of murdering Bentley. Faith in God and each other guide the story through to conclusion. As a fairly new reader of Ms. Morgan's books, I look forward to reading more of her stories. Has it all, mystery, murder, Maui, music, and more This was a quick read that was clean and upbeat. I like the way the author includes faith without knocking anyone over the head with it. It seems the lawyer in Katie and the musician in Max would never be able to come to an agreement but it makes for a great story. I like that there's an emphasis on friendship and family. Forgiveness for past mistakes and taking a person for who they are now. It'll be interesting to see where this series goes. Interesting and sweet Christian read Interesting book. I liked the premise and that the characters kept running into each other and had deep ties (a lot of them went to the same highschool... And wow, what a highschool it must have been). I LOVED the part in Maui. I felt like the story ended a little abruptly, but I guess there's motivation to read the rest of the books in the series.

Her best-sellers are highly entertaining stories that affirm upstanding principles and values. The Peacemaker, first in the Men of the Saddle series, is set in rugged Missouri at the end of the Civil War.Wynne Elliott is tracking down Cass Claxton, the scoundrel who ran off with her money just before the start of the war and left her standing at the altar. Now that the fighting has ended, Wynne wants her revenge. But she never expects Cass' older brother, the handsome Cole, to steal her heart. Can an obstinate, "addlebrained" Southern belle be a match for this intractable, "pompous idiot" cowboy? ©2004 Lori Copeland, Inc.; (P)2005 Recorded Books Members Reviews: Cute storyline but narrator ruins it! Lori Copeland is one of my favorite inspirational authors; I enjoy the humor she uses to develop the storyline and characters. Though this is not one of her best writings, it would have still been enjoyable IF the narrator had not ruined it. Riddett's reading was choppy and stiff, making the characters seem old and cranky. I would skip the audible book, buy a hard copy to enjoy instead. (I didn't even finish it since I just couldn't take it anymore!)

If you're a cactus. If you're not green and prickly, it's like standing in the bottom of a volcano hoping your SPF 15 will do the trick. So how does Simone Greevey, a 20-something e-zine editor from San Francisco wind up wearing a duck costume in sweltering Seepwillow, Arizona? In Desert Desperate, Simone loses her job and her fiancé in one fell swoop and runs to the arms of her eccentric aunt, owner of the Ruddy Duck trailer park, a hundred miles from nowhere. There she meets Chaz Tagliola, a guy who doesn't know Jimmy Choo from Jiminy Cricket, a man with a passion for God, and the one thing Simone has tried to forget about for the decade since her father's death. Before her suitcase is unpacked, Simone's aunt disappears, leaving Chaz and Simone to lead a five-day junior high school Bible study camp. Bug lightings? Hot dog roasts? Cactus jam recipes? It's a whole new world for a San Francisco girl. Throw in a mysterious park tenant and a breathtaking natural discovery and the stage is set for Simone to learn a divine lesson that will rock her world in a big way. Members Reviews: Easy read, and fun! The main character has a wonderful sense of humor. My only complaint is that I couldn't always tell whether CeCe was actually saying words out loud or thinking them. That being said this my first Dana Mentink book and the first time I heard the narrator, Sage Brighten. Good story.. Narrator nailed it! Would you consider the audio edition of Desert Desperate to be better than the print version? I didn't read the print version. How does one compare any way?? It is a personal preference to read or to listen to a book. So glad I chose to listen to this one though as the narrator nailed each character. I feel sure this book by this narrator is more fun to listen to than to read. What does Sage Brighten bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? The narrator Sage Brighten gave a believable personality to each character. I know when a narrator is really good when I get caught up in the story and characters and hear each one individually and not just the voice of the narrator. Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? Yes! And I almost did, but one has to sleep. Any additional comments? Would highly recommend this book to young (teen/YA) and old. Good, fun and laugh out loud parts.

Corporate Scrooge Eric Spade isnt coming home for Christmas. Which, to be honest, he doesnt think is that big of a deal. That is, until the so-called ghosts of past, present, and future come knocking to show him the error of his ways. And though Eric expected the traditional Christmas Carol treatment, hes surprised to learn that his journey through time is less about himself than about his best friends long unrequited and suddenly sexy sister.... Members Reviews: short and sweet Christmas listen! I'm not typically a fan of the cheesy holiday stuff, so this book wouldn't really be my "go to" style. Having said that, it was a succinct sweet listen that is a modernized romantic rendition of A Christmas Carol (hence the title). I actually enjoyed it a lot because it was short and sweet. No need for extra fluff, unnecessary long character development, etc. Good story, good narration, good stuff! I'm really glad I gave it a listen!

Title: An Amish Surprise Author: Abby Barker Narrator: Trisha Wiggin-Fausnaugh Format: Unabridged Length: 42 mins Language: English Release date: 04-11-17 Publisher: Abby Barker Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Alison is a young woman is a little bit different from other Amish girls. She wants to get married and start a family just like everyone else, but she also wants to use her God-given talent to run the family business, one she doesn't want to be forced to give up for a family of her own. But when tragedy strikes her family, she is forced to change her mindset. She meets a young man who may just be the answer to all of her prayers, but will he fall for her...or for her sister? Members Reviews: This was a sweet story but it ended too quickly This was a sweet story but it ended too quickly. Once again I am left to imagine what happens between the love interest. These books seem to be a glimpse into a life rather than the entire story. I liked this one better than the others I have read thus far. Amish surprise. Good book, sad but good. Family time is so important. I am glad they had it each time. Hope to read more. I wanted more A sweet story about the worst time. When a loved one dies it's hard. Two sister totally different but attracted to the same man. Who will win his heart? From meeting to marriage Relationships take time. These two went from meeting to holding hands in the same hour. This is too short a story to develop a relationship. Would not recommend this book ! I apologize to the author,but I can't give this book even 1star. First I do not think she is aware of Amish speech and ways of life. She doesn't have the correct name calling of the parents and the language was strictly 'English' not Amish! We live within an hour of an Amish community and one of my daughter-in-laws was born Amish so many of her family members are still of the sect. No true Amish girl is going to meet an 'Englishler' and immediately fall in love with and plan a life with him. Also, I doubt any Amish girl would be running her Fathers business. At the beginning of the book there were a lot of errors in the wording (extra words put in) , but I would imagine that was the typist of the book in the Kindle, not the authors. I was so surprised how short the book was. I feel I didn't get my worth of having it as my Prme book of the month to read. I would strongly suggest more investigation put into studying the Amish before the author writes anymore of them! I'm sorry for my review, but I needed to be honest on my thoughts.

Ryan Narrator: William Giammona Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs Language: English Release date: 07-07-16 Publisher: Shari J. Ryan Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 9 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Friends since five years old. I got to marry my best friend. We were going to be a family. Or maybe not. "Time of death...." the doctor said. I won't forget that moment I looked over at Ellie-the paleness of her once rosy cheeks, the blue hue coating her perfect lips. You promised me we would be together forever, I wanted to tell her. She gave me her forever, I told myself. Her forever just ended at 25. "You need to say your goodbyes...." the doctor said. My body is numb, and my heart hurts. Hurts like someone just ripped it out of my chest. Which is ironic. "We are going to remove her heart now, Hunter. It was her wish to donate," the doctor said. She never told me this. She never told me another woman would carry on with her beating heart. She never told me this woman knew me but wouldn't let me know her. She never told me if I should follow her heart, or if I should follow mine. She knew. And she could have told me. Members Reviews: Absolutely gut-wrenchingly beautiful story Oh my gosh, this book gutted me from the very beginning. I absolutely loved this story. Young, forever love ending way too soon at just the wrong time - the beginning of new life - leaving a father float through life alone. And then, five years later, all hell beaks loose. And boy does it! Lies, half-truths, secrets and mystery letters. The coincidences and undeniably small degrees of separation brings new meanings to the term 'small worlds'. And out of all the ashes is the beautiful development of a brand new beginning. I loved the audio book version. William Giammona was the perfect choice for the narrator's voice. The emotion and inflection he presented gave the story exactly what was needed to bring this book to life. Great Narration I'm not sure I would have finished this book if not for the narrator. Good idea for a story though.

This is a book I would definitely recommend. It is well done The characters seemed real What did you like best about this story? I loved the inspirational theme through the story What about Teresa Gails performance did you like? Her voice was pleasant to listen to. Any additional comments? I listened to this book on Audio. It was a great book. I found it difficult to stop listening to it. It is well written. I fell in love with Phil and Allison. The characters seemed so real. I love the inspirational themes in this book. Great Story! What made the experience of listening to Courage to Change the most enjoyable? This is the third audible book I have listened to and enjoy the freedom to listen as I do tedious tasks around the house or just sitting and relaxing. The story was wonderfully written with realistic characters. What other book might you compare Courage to Change to and why? Elizabeth Maddrey is a great writer and her books are filled with realistic situations and true to life experiences. Her characters face conflict and many of the same situations you and I do and Maddrey handles them from a Christian perspective without being preachy or unrealistic. Her books in the Remnant series are also excellent and have many of the same characters as in this Grant Us Grace series. Which character as performed by Teresa Gail was your favorite? Teresa Gail did a good job reading this book aloud and giving voice and life to the different characters. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? I enjoyed this book and the authors explanation of scripture when it came to the issue of remarriage after divorce. Any additional comments? This is the second in the Grant Us Grace series, following Wisdom to Know. It is not necessary to read the first book to thoroughly enjoy this book. I look forward to reading Wisdom to Know, since I enjoyed this book so much. Once you start this book you wont want to put it down, or stop listening to the audio version.

A secret admirer? A man with a good heart, who saw how much I actually do need help, even though I never admit it, and how much Sydney needs someone to teach her that men can be nice - that some of them stick around, no matter how hard life gets. Maybe I knew him. Maybe he's been around for a while. Maybe this is the beginning of a beautiful story - a romance full of hope and second chances and love. A secret Santa gift left on Kale Brennan's front porch opens up a fresh view of her ordinary life, and perhaps a fresh view of God. Maybe her ordinary life matters, maybe God sees her - as does a new, single teacher who has her seven year old daughter gushing. But as she embraces new possibilities, a staple in her life - a man who is both kind and steady, and necessary for her injured daughter's recovery - also snatches her attention in an unexpected way. Will the one pursuing her with his secret gift and kind gestures be the one her heart longs for in the end? Members Reviews: The best novella I've ever heard or read. The author did an amazing job of bringing the characters and making their struggles real. I can't send this story enough! I wish her other books for on audiobook. Sweet story, well told. Excellent narrator Some fun and great lines. Loved seven-year-old Sydney and the main character. Moving and thought-provoking at times.

Only he had some news for her too that would change what her winter would be like. In the small Amish community of Cannontown, rarely anything out of the norm ever happens. Miriam was about to find herself caught up in the middle of the gossip trail for something she did not see coming. When Kyle suddenly disappears and evidence leans towards him being kidnapped, she calls on his best friend Jacob Stroker to help her find him. Jacob finds himself in a precarious position. Does he help Miriam to find the man she loves? He can't say no, or the secret he has held in for so long will be made clear. As the snow signals the start of winter Miriam and Jacob find themselves on an adventure that would bring clarity to their lives. Will they be open to it? Members Reviews: Needed More Miriam finally gets the wonderful news that sheâs been selected to teach in her Amish community. She rushes off to the tell her love, Kyle, but he breaks up with her. Devastated, she blames Jacob, Kyleâs best friend. But as she and Jacob try to figure out whatâs going on with Kyle, everything begins to change. The story didnât sound true to the Amish faith to me. First of all, there were too many modern slang phrases, like âget dumpedâ meaning âa couple breaking upâ and âclam upâ for ânot talking.â The daughter of the preacher even said âyou always gave me hell.â In addition, if a young man who had been baptized decided to go live with the English, he would have been shunned and his family and friends could have nothing more to do with him. The book ended at 81% making the 87 pages listed really only 70 pages. In addition, there wasnât a firm ending. The story definitely needed more. Good Amish read Good short book with a bit of mystery while still being a romantic story. I liked that the twist was near the beginning and how it all worked out in the end. There was a strong female character and more books about her would be great. Five stars another great Amish book

She is too old to still be at home, but none of the boys in her community interest her. Rumspringa has lost its intrigue, and now she finds her days monotonous and without the adventure she longs for. Aaron played minor league baseball. Now he is a wanderer, a lost soul believing that the experiences he enjoyed playing baseball are only waiting to be trumped by something out there. Something that he can capture with his art, whether paint on a canvas or photography. He longs to find something special, and when he passes Chicago to go deeper into the country he thinks he found that place. Can Aaron find what he is looking for? Will Abigail be able to find contentment with her family life? Perhaps what they both seeks is romance, an Amish romance. This is a wholesome book that is suitable for all ages. Members Reviews: Great read I really enjoyed this book. However there are many spelling errors and misuse of words, such as their, instead of there, hear, instead of here. The many misspellings make it difficult to read. There is at least one error on every single page. There is one place in chapter 2 where Abigail is being talked about and then Hannah is used instead of Abigail.. a better proofreader is called for. I enjoyed the book but shame on publishing something with so many errors. This is a good clean read with likable characters that you find yourself ... Aaron is a former baseball player seeking to find beauty in nature and painting. Abigail is an Amish girl who dreams of more than the rules and expectations of her current life. In Bridge to the Heart, they meet by chance against the backdrop of an ancient bridge in the middle of the forest. This is a good clean read with likable characters that you find yourself rooting for. I highly recommend it. Sweet This was a sweet book. Are usually read books that are a little longer little bit more plot. But nevertheless I enjoyed it. Bridge to the Heart by Hannah Weaver 5 Star Rating. This was a very interesting book of many short stories. I enjoyed every story and recommend this book to all Amish book readers. Ummm Good book, but far too predictable and also too short. For once in an Amish story I'd like the Amish person to run away and live a normal lifestyle......

Unknown to her is, he has an ulterior motive for bringing her to Hunter's Grove. He stalls the nuptials by saying they need to get to know each other first, and invites her to live with his family in the meantime.

When her groom changes their plans, she becomes confused and angry. She wonders why he brought her there, and for what purpose. Members Reviews: Sweet Short Story Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? I would recommend this book to anyone who wanted a simple, sweet story. It tells of good people making the best of their tragedies. They are thoughtful and kind to each other. What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting? The twist of the ruse (you'll have to read it) is slowly revealed. Quite interesting! Which character as performed by Reagan Boggs was your favorite? Grace is the character who stands out for me. Reagan Boggs was a good match. She was also able to do the male characters very well. It can be hard for a narrator to do both. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? The child's view point was sweet and simple. Well done. Any additional comments? This book was hard for me to get caught up in, it was very simply told. It was more of an oral story with little scene setting and description. I couldn't get attached to the characters, they didn't have enough dimension for me. But I loved the plot and the way the people behaved. No cringing because you can see what's coming, they actually acted normally. Sometimes they didn't talk about the problems and then they would. As I said, a sweet and simple romance. This book was provided to me free of cost in exchange for a read and an honest review. Best book Barbara's written!! This was amazing! I completely enjoyed the audio version of this book but the story was simply beautiful! I was very involved in the book and found myself crying and laughing with the characters! This is the best book Barbara's written (at least of the many I've read)!!! The deep growing love was perfect and the deep conversations they had are what I have been craving! Seems lately most characters are full of doubt and make wrong assumptions but in this book they actually talk things out instead of guessing incorrectly and causing more issues!!!! Very very well done Barb! So very Sweet What an enjoyable short story, great storyline and so very sweet and heart warming. If you're after something short and sweet I recommend this audiobook. Reagan Boggs, you have a lovely voice. Great Third Book! Grace is a young woman who has not had a break in life until she receives a letter of proposal from Graham Easton to come and be his bride. When she gets to Hunter's Grove, however, things are not all that they seem to be and neither is Graham. Graham is looking for a woman to help his family and even though he changes the rules at Grace's arrival, he cares for Grace and wants to do the best for her.

She cleans houses for a living but tries to devote a few minutes to her sketchbook every day. Jim Madden is struggling to get out of debt, while he's single parenting three children. A romance is hardly feasible, but God never lets circumstances interfere with his plans. Members Reviews: Rich and Humorous "Chick Lit" is often described as genre literature which focuses on women's issues in a humorous manner and usually has an element of romance. "Hen Lit" is the same, but for the older set, 35-45 years old. And this is how I would describe Maggie's Mondays -- the story of a weak woman learning to find her inner strength. Maggie is a divorcee who struggles with raising four kids on her own while her husband ditches their family to start a new one. In her struggle to raise them, she's tried to make up for the loss in their lives by spoiling them in a manner that has caused them to disrespect her in every way. Meanwhile, her life is turned upside down by her potential love life and she learns that in order to earn the respect of her children, she needs to respect herself first. I loved this book. Diane Adams has become my go to for a guilty pleasure. Her books are fast paced and suspenseful, full of mysteries, yet they are not in the thriller/suspense genre. Her ability to weave a tale that keeps me up late consuming the book astounds me. Every time I pick up her latest book, it becomes my favorite. She doesn't disappoint! Must read! I read this book and absolutely loved it. It is real life problems and how to overcome them, it is one widower, one divorced wife, and a total of seven kids. It is about love, parenting, responsibility, how to raise good and respectful kids, and how worthy and valuable life is. It is about the value of marrying for love and not for money. Once you start reading it. You will see yourself in the story, no matter who you are. It is about not hiding the reality of life and ,icing within your means from the kids. It is about respect for others and self respect. This book is good for age 15 on up. Do not miss it! Hauntingly Good! Realistic! Christian! Smut Free! No Cliffhanger! Fantastic Story. I just finished reading this book and I am all aglow. This is a fine story about 2 people who have the baggage of failed marriages and 7 teens between them. We watch as God nudges them down His path of healing, loving and growing. Well written with good character development, realistic situations and believable dialog. This is a smut free story like you might find as a Hallmark movie. A Christian story, but not the 'hit you over the head with the Bible' type.

DeMuth Narrator: Renée Raudman Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 11 mins Language: English Release date: 08-04-11 Publisher: Zondervan Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 8 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Willa Muir can't remember her fourth year of life. An early, undefined childhood trauma blacks her memory behind what feels like an impenetrable wall. And with her parents in the hereafter, she can't ask them to clarify what happened. She can't see the invisible, so she researches to obsession, aching to know the truth. Leaving the burnt-to-the-ground house that held all her notes, she ventures back to her hometown of Rockwall, Texas, haunted by a simple sentence spoken over her and a gold ring that promises love. Can she uncover the mystery of her early tragedy within the four walls of her childhood home and find the courage she needs to embrace the man who loves her? Members Reviews: DeMuth has guts. Mary DeMuth's stories retain interest and mystery while realistically putting words to the very real agony of trauma's effects. She walks us through a process of healing. She KNOWS something the Christian world at-large often wants to bury and she is not afraid to be honest in un-burying it. This is the best of fiction: sculpting with words so that all can see. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and clinical depression are subjects in need of real ministry. Their agonies are often addressed in Scripture, but not often in churches, except to minimize and demonize. Thank-you Mary, for showing us all the beauty of depth that comes through those who have been broken.

But when her career flounders, she ends up in Harmony, New Jersey, as a church drama director. Will Tangie find the role of a lifetime where she least expects it? Stodgy music director Gregg Burke realizes he needs help. But how is he ever going to work with the outrageously eccentric Tangie Carini? Or will he discover that opposites do indeed attract? Members Reviews: Reading Doesn't Get Much Better Tangie Carini is beginning to think her acting career is never going to take off, and when her latest boyfriend turns out to be fickle, she goes to Harmony, New Jersey, to stay with her grandparents. They have lined her up a job directing productions for the church. However, working with the music director becomes both a challenge and a joy, as does working with the children. Suddenly sheâs immersed in the lives of the people of Harmony as God works in all their lives. I loved this book. It was so much better than the first one in the series, Salt Water Taffie. I didnât find one thing to criticize here. The plot was engaging, the characters were easy to love, the novel was clean and error-free, the writing was wonderful, and I was pulled into the story. Reading doesnât get much better than this. The Theater, The Theater! This is a sweet story about the theater and those who strive to succeed there. Tangie comes home to Harmony after being discouraged in New York and her failure to get a leading role, well, any role that lasted for more a week or two. She takes a job as the drama director in a local church. The locals don't quite know what to make of her out of the ordinary way of dressing. But she soon wins them over. You feel her pain as she tries to produce an Easter program with kids who are untrained, at best. But, "the show must go on", and it does in grand fashion. Now you have to read the book to find out if she stays in Harmony with the man she's come to love, or will she go to New York and garner that leading lady role? You won't be disappointed in her choice. Good story . This was highly entertaining. Loved how the author showed how God works in people's lives. How we are all witnesses to the love of God. Our actions speak louder than any words. Looking forward to reading more books by this author . Loved this story! All three books in this series were great, but this was my favorite! It is funny, wholesome, sweet and has amazing characters that make you want to move straight to Harmony so you can become part of the community. Like the title says.. There is a simple, sweet harmony throughout this tale. No real surprises and quite predictable--but then we do not always need multilayered, complex, deeply developed stories. Being reminded of simple truths leaves me smiling and content every time. I enjoyed seeing the changes in people's lives and there was much that was very realistic. I suspect this author has some real life experience with kids and plays! I enjoyed the absence of preaching and the focus on what applying faith to real life looks like. All in all, this is a light, but satisfying read.

She meets Gage in a remote village she volunteers to practice medicine in and sparks fly, but Gage is keeping his distance...Can Karen eventually breakthrough? Members Reviews: A Short Short Story Joanne Sawyer tells the sweet romance of two young people meeting and finding an attraction of mind, body and soul. The lack of conflict kept the story sh Terrible narration!!! What disappointed you about Christian Romance: Giving the Best of Me? The narration sounds like a 12 year old boy who is learning how to read and almost mocking the love story. This is the second story with Jonathan smith as the narrator that I've not listened to until the end due to the poor pronunciation, lack of inflection and just irritating nature of his voice. I'm addition, this was a super short story (with horrid audio) and I feel ripped off by the price! What do you think your next listen will be? Nothing by this author or narrator. How did the narrator detract from the book? Poor and inconsistent pronunciation, lack of inflection and a tone that was almost mocking of the story.

Then days before her long awaited trip, tragedy strikes! In pursuit of ducks, Bella her rambunctious lab, pulls Sarah into the lake! The end result - an injured knee! To make matters worse Sarah's grandmother, Rita, insists on calling 911 and within minutes she is surrounded by firemen and EMT. A timely trip to the ER and x-rays confirm that while there is no permanent damage, her Christmas will be one spent at home, on the couch with none other than Bella. A disgruntled Sarah finds herself moping around and wallowing in self-pity when Jack, a good looking firefighter, makes a house call to return the wallet she had accidentally left in the ambulance. Join Sarah and Jack in this five-alarm romance where Sarah discovers what she really needs for Christmas is right around the corner at her local fire station. A Christmas miracle where the firemen of Fire House 72, along with one fun-loving black lab, come to her rescue! Members Reviews: Wonderful What a wonderful clean Christian romance. I loved the story line and the secondary characters as well. I just wish there had been an epilogue. :-) sweet story! A sweet, cute story that will make you smile. I look forward to reading more of Jenny's books in the future :-) Five Stars enjoyed reading - good story not likely It started out fine and nice but then got unlikely. It's not likely they both would move so fast, and then suddenly a Dr. that she barely knows comes by in his scrubs with dinner in hand without an invite for that. It's so unprofessional , and besides, it's unlikely a highly educated doc falls for a daycare worker. And about the first guys's dark past, there's more to consider than forgiveness...there are possible diseases and physical damage to consider, not to mention professional counseling to deal with it biblically, since he hasn't, and isn't even a believer yet. She's "missionary dating", not the best way, although she does clarify that his motives need to be right. It's also unlikely someone would show up on Christmas with 8 others, unannounced, especially when at the last meeting the relationship wasn't fixed. Cute and quick I give this story 3 1/2 stars. It's nice to read a story that has been well edited. For the short length of the book, this author developed a nice little story. What put me off was mixed messages. From vodka in the fridge and drinking enough to get a buzz in a restaurant, to preaching salvation by the same character. That, and the abrupt ending kept me from rating a higher score.

The Guilty Proposal Audiobook by Barbara Goss

Goss Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 23 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Travis Grayson feels responsible for a serious injury to his long-time friend, Libby. Out of guilt, he proposes, much to her delight. Not long after, he meets Evaline Radcliffe, and she immediately steals his heart. He finds himself in a predicament: he's betrothed to one woman out of duty, and head over heels in love with another. To make matters worse, Evaline eventually discovers his duplicity. Evaline has a problem of her own, and she enlists her father's help in solving it. Her father's solution is to arrange for her to be kidnapped. Members Reviews: It all began with the guilt As I think back to listening to this book, my thoughts are mixed. The story opened and I formed an opinion of how the plot would go, except it didn't go that way...at all. The conclusion of the book made sense to the story and wrapped everything up nicely, but I still have a lingering question wondering what would have happened if the plot had twisted in a few of the ways that my mind thought it would. Travis drove Libby home one evening and an unfortunate accident on the ride home caused Libby injury to her legs, making the doctor wonder if she would walk again. Travis feels guilty and does everything he can to help Libby, including selling cattle to pay for a doctor and even offering to marry her. Then Travis meet a woman in town that he is attracted to and the plot thickens. One thing I do like about books by Barbara Goss is the characters. They have character and integrity without being boring, uptight or stuffy. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher. Would recommend. Any additional comments? I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review. Out of Barbara Goss books that I have read/listened to, this has to be for me the best of her works. I liked and believed in her characters. I felt a connection with them and kept wondering how on earth they were going to get out of the mess they were in. There are twist and turns that keep you listening until you get to the end. Would highly recommend! Love conquers all! A sweet story about marrying for love verses marrying for honor! Another great series by Barbara Goss! I love the narration on this book. Although the English accents don't sound authentic, each woman's voice is distinct enough to tell them apart without their names relayed every time they speak! There are several parts where I giggled and even laughed outright! Why is Ned attracted to the smell of Ellen if it reminds him of his Grandmother? I've enjoyed this whole series but the audio version really adds to the story in my opinion! Great beginning for a new Series If you could sum up The Guilty Proposal in three words, what would they be? Very good story What was one of the most memorable moments of The Guilty Proposal? The accident Any additional comments? A very entertaining Christian romance with twists that keep you reading.

Woodworth Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 7 mins Language: English Release date: 03-01-16 Publisher: Julie Pollitt Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 12 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Christmas in the Colorado Rockies Jonah Tomlinson spent the last year mending a broken heart. He wanted marriage and children, but didn't want the worries of love and another broken heart. But no woman would ever agree to that, so he sent off for a mail-order bride with the condition that they marry for mere companionship - and not love. Annie Reed spent the past year mourning the loss of her fiancé to a horse accident. She vowed never to fall in love again. When she answered Jonah's letter, the two agreed to marry without the entanglement of love. They both decided to stick to the plan - until they met. It's winter time in the Colorado Rockies, and Christmas is right around the corner in the small town of Breckenridge. Sleigh bells ring, Christmas decorations are up, and Annie and Jonah are doing something they promised not to do - fall in love with each other. Both find themselves unable to stick to the agreement, but not wanting to disappoint the other by breaking their promise. Before they say their vows, can they admit their feelings for each other and truly give in to love? Or will Annie return to New York and never see her true love again? Come for Christmas in the Colorado Rockies. Members Reviews: A warm romance --I was given a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review. Again, Julie Pollitt has provided a short, entertaining novella. I love these books, she has a way of giving the reader a well developed character in a short period of time. Jonah, a man who has previously lost at love has sent for a mail order bride. He finds Annie, and they agree to meet and if comfortable get married. No love will be involved in this relationship. Annie is coming from a life where her fiance had been killed, so she was more than happy to agree to this. Little did they know when the deal was struck that this would be an impossible task. Leonor A Woodworth provides us with a beautiful narration of this story. Her voice is perfect for this and creates a warm ambiance as you are listening. Sweet novella Jonah and Annie, you have warmed my heart! Such a sweet novella. Nicely written. Each scenario effortlessly leading to the next one. The tension mounts for the reader as you know what is going to eventually happen and can hardly wait for it. I really enjoyed this tale of two people who weren't looking for love. I'm sure you too will enjoy this short story . Such a good book! Would you consider the audio edition of Mail-Order Brides: A Breckenridge Romance to be better than the print version? I love audio books and rarely read printed but the narration is so good and on point that the audio would have to be better. Have you listened to any of Leonor A. Woodworths other performances before? How does this one compare? Yes, this is the third book I have listened to and all three were great! I would definitely listen to any of her books again. Any age can listen to the book. Its a clean book with a touch of religion. Just a good book overall. Any additional comments? I was given this book free of charge by the narrator. Thanks for the opportunity to review this book. Good short story I found this to be an interesting story of how two different people came to find love when they were only expecting a mutually beneficial relationship. Although this is a short story it seems like a fully completed tale which can sometimes not be the case with short stories.

Members Reviews: Inspiring , heartfelt, soul searching I was introduced to this series by Henry himself so I told him I would read it. I am so glad that I did. I could not put these books down. I loved them so much that I have recommended them to several people.. One person that I have talked to has a 12 year old son and she makes him read 3 books each summer, I suggested this series to her for him to read this summer. Thank you Henry for coming into my life and passing on this beautiful love story that you created. You are a very talented gentleman and I wish you well. God Bless. Too long! I have been reading all the books to this series already and am getting SO frustrated! The main storyline is interesting, and I want to find out what happens and for the story to resolve, but the side stories, and constant interference with Jenny and Henry is getting too much already! I think had it been resolved in 3 books, it would have been great, but I find myself getting irritated, skipping huge portions of the book just to get back to the main story, and feeling let down and irritated by the end of it. I'm sure I will read the rest of the series so I can have some closure on this story because I've invested so much time and money already, but I sincerely hope that the next book is the last! Couldn't Put This Book Down! This wonderful book has a great story line along with life lessons. I received a deeper understan One of the best books I have ever read. I recommend it for all ages. Can't wait to read book number five but yet I don't want this story to ever end. I am so in love with all the characters. A must read!!! The writing is so so but the story and most of the moral messages are so good that I loved the books I've been engrossed in this series. Have to find out how it turns out.

Woodworth Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 58 mins Language: English Release date: 02-06-15 Publisher: Marie Higgins Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 10 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: In the early hours of the morning, Careen becomes Matthew Grayson's wife--and then, in a blink of an eye, his widow. How can she tell the family shes never met that her own cousin is responsible for their sons death? While she waits for the right moment to admit the cousin's guilt, a budding attraction grows between Careen and her new brother-in-law, Joshua. But this will only complicate matters, especially when the truth finally comes out. Joshua Grayson could never understand why his brother left the family ranch to wed--in secret--a woman he'd never met. And now Matthew is dead. Killed just moments after taking his wedding vows. Joshua struggles with both resentment and a growing attraction for his mysterious sister-in-law. He knows Careen is hiding something, but can he give love another chance, or is he just setting up his heart for another break? Members Reviews: Had Some Potential... I felt this book had potential, but the religious aspect was forced into the story and didn't belong in many parts where it appeared. I didn't appreciate the fact that our main character, Careen has had it pretty rough for the past several years but now she's willing to 'trust in God, because God protects the Graysons' It just seemed contrived to me and not a naturally occurring element in the story. It seemed hypocritical and if people were saying things like that to me over and over again, I would be irritated that God hadn't been there to protect me earlier, while this family almost seems to take it for granted. Almost. The overall story was OK, a bit of mystery with a lot of romance. Our main character is likable enough. The secondary character, however, was far too wishy-washy. The writing itself is just not good. The narrator did a decent job. While I won't be going out of my way to find more narrated by the same person, I won't be avoiding them, either. I received a free copy of this book from the author, narrator or publisher in exchange for an unbiased review. Amazing story! **I was given a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review This is my first Marie Higgins book, but definitely will not be my last. From the very start, I knew this was going to be one I couldn't take my earbuds out for! Not only was it a great western cowboy romance, but it had suspense as well! My kind of book! From the first scene with Matthew and Careen to the end with Joshua, I just had to keep listening. The characters are well developed, the relationship between Careen and Joshua was frustrating and fun, between Careen and the rest of the family was heartwarming. You couldn't help but just want to move onto the ranch and be a part of it! Their acceptance of Careen, love they showed and protectiveness from her cousin just made you fall in love with them. This is not my first Leonor A Woodworth narration...she was amazing in Anne Patrick's "A Familiar Evil". Definitely one of my favorite narrators, brings all the characters to life, easy to tell who is speaking and makes the books so I don't want to put them down! I am looking forward to my next listen of Marie Higgins! Amazingly good Storytelling When I finished this book I wondered if it was categorized incorrectly? When I read clean book I usually translate into something other than I got out of this book. Dont get me wrong. It is not raunchy.

Members Reviews: Fun, Easy to Read Amish Romance I purchased Abigail's Heart through Amazon and thought it was a very cute, fun book to read. Very easy and quick to read through, which I need with two toddlers and a household to take care of. I don't feel like I ever get time to read because I'm tired at night, but I was able to easily read through this in a couple nights on my tablet using Kindle with no problems. I had never read Faye Baker's books from what I can remember. Definitely enjoyed it. It was inspirational, thought provoking, and educational in aspects of the Amish culture. I have loved reading Amish romances previously and was excited to get this book. The main character Abigail is a sweet, kind hearted young Amish girl in this story. Kind of flighty and doesn't always think through things very well because she thinks someone likes her or she likes someone and they don't return her feelings. She just made me laugh throughout the story with her silly antics and thoughts. Sort of reminds me of myself when I was younger and in search of love. Totally got it wrong until I let the Lord lead me to my husband like in this story. Her future husband was in front of her the whole time and she didn't realize it. At times I felt kind of frustrated with her, so I would say that the character definitely pulled me in to her life and made me feel like I was apart of the story too. The author was also good at describing the scenery & including problems/solutions that draw you in. Would definitely recommend Abigail's Heart if you enjoy reading Amish Romances or romances in general. It is a story of faith, but anyone can enjoy it. No language or adult situations, so younger girls can enjoy this book too. but she mentioned the fact that she really admired how the book illustrates the life and desires of an Amish girl who falls in l I got this book for my sister because I thought it would be something different from her typical Romance novels, and apparently, she saw it as a pleasant surprise. She didn't give me too many details about the plot, but she mentioned the fact that she really admired how the book illustrates the life and desires of an Amish girl who falls in love with her brother's friend. She definitely recommends this book to any fan of the genre, or to any Romance fan who wants to read something different. Something less physical, yet still touching. A good book with many lessons I love Amish stories and this was no exception. It's a good clean inspiration story about an Amish woman trying to find the love of her life but looks to all the wrong men.

After all, who wouldn't dream of being the independent Elizabeth Bennett or of being wooed by the aristocratic Mr. Darcy? But when tragic news calls away their longtime friend and ranch hand, he's replaced by a handsome stranger. Mackenzie soon finds herself swooning over Tyler Anderson. There are just two small problems: he hates Jane Austen, and his ex-girlfriend is the very person responsible for making Mackenzie's school years miserable. Will she find love and a fairytale ending, or is she doomed for her story to end in tragedy? Members Reviews: Love This Title I have to admit, being a Jane Austen fan, the title of this book drew me in. This book is just under 4 hours long so I was pleasantly surprised that this clean YA listen had a good story that was cute, light, fun, with elements of faith. The main character, Mackenzie, is a Jane Austen enthusiast that has self esteem issues. She considers herself an ugly duckling because shes never had admirers or even a boyfriend. This is a story of overcoming insecurities and dealing with the pressures of life. I thought the narration was great. Each character was unique and spoken clearly. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys clean YA listens. I would like to thank the author, narrator, or publisher for providing me this audiobook at no cost in exchange for my unbiased review courtesy of Audio book boom. Love it Would you listen to Jane Austen in Blue Jeans again? Why? I might listen to this book again. It was a great book that hit on some very real emotions for a lot of people. What other book might you compare Jane Austen in Blue Jeans to and why? I am not sure. I know it's like a couple i have listed to, but didn't like nearly as much as i liked this one. What does Kate van de Goor bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? I don't know, she did a good job though. Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? I about cried a few times just knowing how this girl felt when feeling like she wasn't attractive, although i am not as attractive as her in the book, but i know the feelings she was going through. I also about cried at the end up in the treehouse. Any additional comments? "This audiobook was provided by the author, narrator, or publisher at no cost in exchange for an unbiased review courtesy of Audiobook Blast." Cute and fasted paced. this is a short fast book. a nice little romance, thats funny, and has a lot of Jane Austen influence it it! its cute and lite. I was provided this audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator for an unbiased review via Audio Boom.. Delightful, romantic, enjoyable. Quite simply i enjoyed this book. The story is a short, funny, clean romance that most women can relate to because we all have our insecurities. This is a story about that time in a young woman's life when she is fully grown but has yet to completely shed the mantle of teenage angst and experience. The characters are delight, interesting and complex. I even enjoyed the open-minded interpretation of Christianity that was alluded to in the story.

Which character as performed by Peggy Sowersby was your favorite? Not real sure at times they sounded so similar. If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be? not certain. great christian book I liked this book much better than authors first book. it deals with physical as well as emotional abuse that affects the person from childhood all the way into adulthood. then it deals with the issue of trust as well as forgiveness for the abuser from the abused..even as christ also forgave us. narrator was fine. it will good to see what the author's next book deals with or where she goes from here.

Now she is trying to break into his cabin. When he realizes she's injured, Forrest does what any good citizen would do-if they were helping someone else. When Forrest learns the secret behind Sasha's chilly personality, he sets out to help her thaw. Members Reviews: more "I was provided this audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review via AudiobookBlast dot com." loved it. i wish i had the first one to Great story Narrator was good and the story was sweet. I was given this book in exchange for my honest review A good Christian romance! I was given this audio book in exchange for an honest review. This is the story of Sasha and Forrest. Sasha had an encounter with an overly aggressive college classmate and has developed some pretty substantial issues with the opposite sex because of it. Forrest is the good guy who ends up doing whatever he can to protect her and make her more comfortable, even going so far as setting up a fake engagement to make the other guy back off. Is there anyway they can work toward making the engagement real? My favorite part was when Sasha was trying to get into a house to warm up after she had put her car in a snowbank. She gets caught in a rather awkward position by the homeowner, who just happens to be Forrest! I actually thought this book was slightly better than the first. Winter Chill: Seasons of the Heart, Book 2 "This audiobook was provided by the author, narrator, or publisher at no cost in exchange for an unbiased review courtesy of Audiobook Blast." It is great getting to hear Sasha's story. Learning to forgive past transgressions against her and being able to move foreward in her life, is a major step.I want more in this series!!!!!!!! The narration was well done, The emotions come through wonderfully . Warm story on a chilly day! Another wonderful listen by Susette Williams, this novella brings Sasha and Forest together. I love this short, feel good, wholesome romances. They are just long enough that I can listen while doing other things but Williams has a great way of developing the characters in that short period. There is nothing worse than listening to a book and not really getting a feel for who the people are. Sasha is a college student who has been a victim of date rape. Forest is an older student that also works at the school and happens upon Sasha trying to get into his house after her car runs off the road during a snowstorm. This unexpected turn of events leads them down a path of healing and love. You cannot help but just fall in love with the ever patient and calming Forest. He is a wonderful man(with a little anger issue at times when protectiveness comes into play) that is able to make Sasha once again feel and fall in love. Allyson Vollers again brings a very calming and warm voice to this book. I am looking forward to the other two seasons!

Goss Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 16 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Christian romance Left on the steps of a church as an infant, Laura struggles with her decision to dedicate her life to God. On her way to a mission in Texas, a train robber snatches the novice nun and uses her as a hostage. Jesse Collins, her rescuer, not knowing what else to do with her, takes her home to his family. Never having experienced family life, Laura is touched by it and is confused by her building affection for Jesse. However, someone wants her gone and takes steps to make that happen. Members Reviews: A delightful adventure The theme of this story is so very different and clever. A novice nun is saved by a young gentleman rancher after a train hold-up and she is separated from her companions/fellow workers. What a delightful adventure she has while falling in love! The main and supporting characters are clear and strong, each one playing their part remarkably well. I was kept totally engrossed and enjoyed every second of this really beautifully told story told by an amazing author, Barbara Goss and the audio is done very nicely by Persephone Rose. The audiobook version was provided by the author at no cost and this is my honest and unbiased review. A True Family.. This story centers around Laura, the female lead, who doesn't know what a family life feels like since she was left on church steps when she was just a wee babe. Her life drastically changes on her way to a religious mission, now enters the male lead, Jesse, and the store takes off with wings. Both leads were likable. This story has action, suspense, a bit of prayer, and of course, a bit of romance making it a quick entertaining read or listen. I read a few reviews where people mention an issue about the religious aspect, I had no such issue, I was expecting it, especially, since the book description mentions that Laura "struggles with her decision to dedicate her life to God". Persephone Rose did well with the narration. Note: "This audio book was provided by the author, narrator, or publisher at no cost in exchange for an unbiased review." Interesting I got this ARC via audiobook boom and this is my voluntary review. This is another story in a series of how the men in the west got their brides. I loved this one very much. She started out as a nun and ended up a beloved bride. The twists and turns that got her there were filled with suspense and humor. The way the author showed how ill will and greed can turn people into terrors was very well done. I also liked how the author demonstrated what indulging our children's every whim can turn them into. The narrator was very good and pulled all of the emotions out of the words. This was another very well developed story. READ ME! Part of a series, Barb Goss does it again! Young novice nun is kidnapped off a train on her way to her new assignment in Texas and finds a real family and love. Definitely worth a "read" as always, Wonderfully done Barbara Goss wrote a great story, and this romance is a story that will keep you reading or listening to find out what happens next. Persephone Rose did a wonderful job on giving the characters life. I really enjoyed this audio book. Thank you to Ms. Goss for a good clean book, and to Persephone Rose for a good audio.

Note: "This audio book was provided by the author, narrator, or publisher at no cost in exchange for an unbiased review." A bride for Thomas Overall review for Sun River Brides, books 2-5: Karla Gracey's Mail Order Bride series is a series of sweet romantic shortstories. The stories are very fast-paced and only told - not showed. In some books I didn't connect with the characters at all. You won't get much background stories to the characters' lives and in some points you only get the point of view from one of them. These books are good entertainment if you need a short listen once in a while. About 'A Bride for Thomas': In this story we get some more drama and storyline, however, we still need depth to the story and indeed passion to indicate that they actually fall in love. So far the most believable story of them all. Alan Taylor did a very good job in narrating this series and has a very pleasant voice and made characters come to life. I'd love to hear him in other books as well. *This book was gifted to me in exchange for an honest review. Perfect romance stories! Any additional comments? The narrator did an amazing job with this book giving each character their own voice and personality. This was a clean sweet romance with a happy ending. I love this whole series and you fall in love with each character for their own flaws and personalities. Once you listen to one book you have to heard all of the rest. I highly would recommend these sweet wholesome romance books.

When Rose McKay convinces her brother, Ewan, to invest in a pottery business, she's determined to assist him in making the endeavor a success. A recent graduate of the Philadelphia School of Design for Women, she believes she can design pieces that will sell well. Rose also reconnects with Joshua Harkness, who oversees his own family's pottery works and promises to help her. Rylan Campbell has never liked change, but the new owners of the pottery seem to be decent folks. He just wishes Rose wouldn't insist on changing the way they do things. Then McKay Pottery begins to lose business to the Harkness company, and Rylan suspects Joshua may be secretly taking advantage of Rose. When Franklin Hotels announces a design contest, it could be the opportunity McKay Pottery needs to achieve recognition and clients. Rose and Rylan work together to create something magnificent. With Joshua's company as their main rival, can Rylan convince Rose her trust in Joshua may spell ruin for them all? Members Reviews: Another great book by Judith Miller! What a great book. Had some surprises along the way. The aurthor did a great job of explaining the pottery process and the era. You felt like you were living during the time period. This was a nice love story that had a beautiful clean romance. There was biblical references that were tastefully done that even a non-Christian would not be offended. I enjoyed this book as much as the first book. Even though this is a series, you could read just one book and enjoy it as if it were a stand alone book. I'm loooking forward to book three and see how the story ends! RHONDA The Lord Rewards the Righteous... Judith Miller's name alone is enough to make me pick up The Potter's Lady, but the cover art is exquisitely beautiful with its multicolored depiction of West Virginia. Wow! Since this is book two of Refined by Love series, I will also say that is the third reason I wanted to read it, to follow up on more of the McKay family. However, the book could be read as a standalone. Uncle Hugh Crothers has died without legally making Ewan McKay a partner in the brick making business. Greedy Aunt Margaret forces Ewan out, and Ewan has to choose between two businesses to buy-- a brickyard or a pottery-- to support his family. Encouraged by his sister, Rose, newly graduated from design school, Ewan buys the pottery. Although it seemed like a good decision, nothing goes well. The business loses customers, workers want to quit, and Rose and Rylan, two very important figures in the business, can't agree on anything. I love the very realistic characters with their fears, hopes for change, suspicion born of mistreatment, and greed and avarice. Great lessons of trust, faith in God, hope, learning to listen to others' opinions, casting aside pride,and the results of caring only for oneself. The biggest lesson, perhaps, is that there is a God-shaped hole in each of us. If we don't fill it with Him, we are left floundering. What a compelling story Judith Miller has woven!

Title: Shadow of Deceit Subtitle: Shadow Series, Book 2 Author: Barbara Goss Narrator: Tom Jordan Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 34 mins Language: English Release date: 06-26-17 Publisher: Barbara A. Goss Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 27 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Love! Julia Croft never thought she would actually fall in love with the man she set out to mislead. Surely he would forgive her if he knew the truth. Could he be so cold-hearted as to not see what her brother meant to her? Would he see that it was a matter of life and death that brought her to this deceitfulness? Deceived! How could Caleb Armstrong, have allowed himself to be drawn into being enticed by a woman who merely used him? Now that he knew her ruse, he could easily rid himself of Julia Croft and her brother Miles. Surely there was a woman somewhere who could overlook his gimp leg. The most plaguing problem would be - could his heart ever forget her? Members Reviews: Shadow of Deceit This is another wonderful book by Barbara Goss. I've had the opportunity now to enjoy several of her books and I can honestly say I haven't been disappointed at all. This book is another example of a good clean romance with some mystery. It's the kind of story that leaves you with a smile. Looking forward to more in this series. Tom Jordan did a fabulous job narrating this book. He has the type of voice that is pleasing on the ears and works great in this type of genre. I received a copy of this story in exchange for an honest review. Just wonderful With Barbara Goss' stories I always take a moment to reflect at the end and see what lesson she was writing about. In this book I think it is that the truth will out and when it does, it may hurt some people but it will probably do more good than not and also that it is preferable not to be conniving nor to lie. If you need help, then ask for it. But these are my own thoughts and opinions on this story and yours may differ. As usual Barbara has written a lovely story about two different, yet connected pairs of people who meet and fall in love. Their lives are interwoven and shadowed by the lies and deceit of a brother and sister. Only when these lies are brought to light and faced head-on can these two couples learn to trust again. Tom Jordan has a 'voice' I for one could easily fall in love with. Jokes aside, it is a beautiful one and he uses it to the full to enhance this book. Just wonderful! The audiobook version was provided by the author at no cost and this is my honest and unbiased review. The story continues! This book wastes no time right out of the gate, resuming where the previous book left off; convenient if one recently finished the first book as I had, but probably abrupt for those who took some time off in between. The result is a book that doesn't have the extra burden of character and plot introduction, or an introduction, which adds up to some weight loss and a run time of a hair over 3.5 hours. In this book, I felt there was no wasted time, and the pace was just right. Once again, Tom delivers a great performance, and it seems that everything is even more settled into place. Initially, in the story where the deception is in the open and quickly apparent to the listener/reader, I found myself disappointed and wasn't sure I would enjoy this book nearly as much as the first. I stuck through it, and things conveniently resolved themselves and led to a happy ending, as you'd expect. There wasn't nearly the length and depth of anguish for Caleb as there was for Jonas, and for me this may have taken away from the impact of the book.

The Amish Widow's Faith Boxed Set 1-4 Audiobook by Joseph Hersh

Title: The Amish Widow's Faith Boxed Set 1-4 Author: Joseph Hersh Narrator: Dorothy Deavers Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 7 mins Language: English Release date: 03-30-15 Publisher: Joseph Hersh Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: After a long journey, love has finally come to Samantha Lapp's life. But just as quickly as happiness has found her, tragedy strikes. Samantha is left trying to pick up the pieces of her broken life. Will her faith be strong enough to guide her through, and will she ever be able to open her heart up again after what happened? Members Reviews: Told, not shown One of the first things a writer is taught is "Show; don't tell." I felt throughout the book that I was being told about things, but not really shown what was happening. I did not feel a lot of depth in the story because of that. Yes, the theme could have been very deep but because many (if not most) of the events were not fully developed into vibrant scenes, it seemed shallow. I felt that too many things were just talked about briefly, then skipped over to the next thing to be told. And then there were the times in the story when it went on and on, but still didn't draw this reader in. "Show; don't tell" is something I personally am working on. For me it's not easy, but it is extremely important. The reader needs to be involved in the story. Telling just doesn't do it. Some narrative is good, but it still should and can be done with a voice that keeps the reader wanting more. In this book, I sensed it was totally out of balance. And the narration voice seemed almost monotone in many places The more that I read, the more it felt like the events were just being told about. To me the plot was weak. It was all about getting married again -- or not! There needed to be some real twists and turns in the story. Even though the characters often kept saying they didn't know what the future held for them, the reader could pretty much guess the way through the whole book for the most part with a few minor exceptions. Again, it could have been strong if the characters were stronger. But the characters' main goals in life were getting married and raising a family. I have read a lot of Amish stories that had real plot lines that made me not want to put the book down. Even though marriage and family were prevalent in those stories, there was also substance that made the stories good, if not great! So much of the time, this book sounded like the narrative was coming just from the author's pen and not through the characters' heads. And as other folks have mentioned, the conversations were very repetitive. And yes, this book definitely needs a strong editing. I, too, saw the "Adam - Abraham" switch of the name of one of the characters. And there were many other things that should have been edited... some grammar and word choice issues. Then there was the labor issue: "Samantha was in labor for hours--pushing, sweating, and yelling to no avail." "By the fifth hour, there was nothing left to do but pray. "The idea of an easy labor and delivery was nothing more than a myth.... Sheâd heard stories of frantic husbands and wives rushing to the hospital when the expectant mammâs water broke unexpectedly. ... Spending at least five hours in labor was practically a given for her. . The act of giving birth was one of the most excruciating and exhausting experiences of Samanthaâs life. She couldnât wait for it to be over." As a mother, I take issue with his indicating that five or six hours is a LONG time to be in labor...

Mail Order Bride: The Amish Widow and the Cowboy Father tells the beautiful story about two people brought together by the Lords divine plan. Sadie was an Amish beauty who was to be married to an older man whom she did not love. Having been a widow she knew what true love felt like, and this was not it. After coming into town to pick up goods for her family, Sadie is led by God to read a mail-order bride advertisement. She is drawn to an ad from a lonely widower living in Texas named Burk. Her heart hurts for this man and his loneliness, so she is compelled to write to him. They begin a secret courtship through the mail and soon realize that God has greater plans for their future relationship. Pursuing their love for each other will not come easy, but with God, all things are possible. Members Reviews: Good book I liked the book and the story line a second chance at love but did not like the narrator, but it could be just me getting used to audio books? Delightful! Would you listen to Mail Order Bride: The Amish Widow and the Cowboy Father again? Why? Yes! There were so many 'busy' and funny parts, I want to laugh at them again :-) Which character as performed by Joe Smith was your favorite? I can't choose just one, but my favorites were James and Bessie. Mr. Smith portrayed such lively pictures of them both, perfectly! Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? The scene when Burke and Sadie met, and all the 'activity' that ensued was entertaining to say the least! Delightfully funny!

Happily ever after guaranteed. War changes everythingeven their love. Bride-to-be Stella Carson cant wait to marry her longtime sweetheart Marshall Henderson. But Marshall has been away serving his country and has suffered a head wound. After being diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder, he has distanced himself from Stella, asking her not to visit him in a Washington, D.C., hospital. Marshall returns to Louisiana just four weeks before the wedding, but as the big day draws near, Stella wonders if the man shes loved for most of her life has become someone else. Can true love conquer all for Stella and Marshall, even the tragedy of war? Members Reviews: Very Enjoyable Read! Welcome to spring! It is that time of year where the brides start walking down the aisle. Lenora Worth brings us the story of a bride who has to decide whether it is worth, it to walk down the aisle. Have you ever had the experience of having trials surprise you? How will you react or will you change your plans? Synopsis: Stella is looking forward to marrying her fiancé Marshall, when he comes back from his deployment. Around the time that Marshall would have been sent home he and his unit encounter an IED. Marshall survives but is injured. He wakes up with no memory of Stella and their time together. His parents initially keep Stella away because of his amnesia. When Stella discovers what her current circumstances are she begins to reconsider plans. Will she still marry Marshall? Or will he come up with the perfect plan to help her down the aisle? My Thoughts: I enjoyed Lenoraâs story of the reluctant bride. She did a great job of creating positive interactions between Stella and Marshall. Grand gesture by Marshall to get his bride to say I do won me over completely. The story is peppered with great characters. The story is set in Renaissance Louisiana. Just OK Stella Carson is so excited to be marrying her childhood sweetheart Marshall Henderson. When her solider is wounded overseas, she's determined to stand by him and help heal. She's even willing to postpone their wedding. Marshall's injuries are more than what he's let on. He's suffering from amnesia as well as PTSD. He doesn't remember Stella or the life they had planned together. But he's determined to marry her anyway. Will their love survive this bump in the road? This is part of the Year of Weddings Series. Overall, I liked the book. I didn't love it, but I'm not gushing about it either. It was just ok. I loved how Stella had to learn to trust God in a different way regarding Marshall. And I loved how Marshall kept fighting to remember her. While the storyline of the wounded hero coming home was good, I really didn't connect with either of the main characters too much. True the book only took me a couple of hours to read, but it didn't hold my interest like others in this series. I received a Kindle copy of this book for free from Booklook Blogging Program of Thomas Nelson/Zondervan for the purpose of reviewing. I got that copy AFTER I'd already bought one. Recommended to fans of weddings, Love Inspired, novellas Rating - 3 stars. Felt really blah about the whole book. weddings I love reading these wedding books because they are christian or at least seem to be very romantic without having to add sex and bad values to get the story going.

But her heart ends up on the line as well. Has her determination to always make a match driven away the one man whose esteem she covets? ©2007 Tracie Peterson; (P)2008 Oasis Audio Members Reviews: Great short audible book Would you consider the audio edition of A Lady of High Regard to be better than the print version? I haven't read the print version of the book, though I have read other books by Tracie Peterson. It was delightful to have this one as an audio version. Brought the story alive. Who was your favorite character and why? Mia was my favorite character. She wants to help others and it's full steam ahead without much consideration of danger or other consequences. I wish we all had her drive toimprove our world. What does the narrator bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? The narrator did a good job with male and female voices. I could just picture them in my mind as they went through their dialogue. If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be? Love is often found where we least expect it. Any additional comments? I loved having a shorter audio book. The whole story fit into the 6 hours very nicely.

Title: The Cranbury Papermaker Author: Maureen Lang Narrator: Devin Crowe Format: Unabridged Length: 9 hrs and 28 mins Language: English Release date: 08-10-17 Publisher: 591 Press Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Will he steal her inheritance...or save it? Arianne Casterton is devastated when her father and his new wife are killed in a train accident. Despite her faith in God, Arianne's grief soon turns to despair when she discovers one-third of everything her father owned has been transferred automatically to his wife's son and heir, Jonas Prestwich - someone Arianne never knew existed. Jonas's mother married a backwoods papermaker much too soon after becoming a widow, embarrassing Jonas who lives among Philadelphia's elite. Though he's distressed by his mother's death within a year after losing his father, receiving a portion of the papermaker's inheritance feels like justice. God has blessed Arianne with the passion and talent for papermaking in her family's tradition, but the demands of keeping the business going are nearly overwhelming. When Jonas offers to expand her efforts into something more modern and profitable, Arianne is suspicious, reluctant to give up the art of handmade papermaking. But she realizes without his unwanted help she might lose everything anyway. The Cranbury Papermaker is the 2015 release from award winning writer Maureen Lang, author of 13 previous Christian romance novels and novellas. Members Reviews: An Old-Fashioned Romance Wrapped in Hand-Made Paper Once again Maureen Lang has illumined a slice of life in a bygone period of American history in such a way that the reader can picture what life was life in those days. Before reading this book, I took paper for granted, thinking of hand-made paper as an artsy thing that you see in special greeting cards or fancy invitations. It never occurred to me that at one time all paper was made by hand. So that part of the book was fascinating in and of itself, as well as the advent of machine-made paper which was just at that time coming on the scene. But that is just icing on the cake because the real joy of reading this book in the story itself. I really enjoyed it. We get a glimpse into small-town life in the late 1800's with a romance that has all the essential elements: a beautiful heroine, a handsome and appealing man of questionable motives, rising tension and a satisfying conclusion. This is a typical Maureen Lang book with her usual use of vivid details, bringing the setting and characters to life in such a way that we can really picture them as we become engrossed in the story. She gives us lots of interesting characters to watch as we go along. Yes, this is entertaining, educational, and inspiring. It's a delightful read. I know the author and I don't like romance books I have to preface this review with 2 remarks: I know the author and I don't like romance books. However, knowing that Maureen writes very good books (I've read 3 of her traditionally published books), I knew that she would write a good story. And she did! There is depth to her two main characters, Adrianne and Jonas, and there is enough intrigue in the story to keep the reader's attention...at least it kept mine. The setting and time is also very interesting - if you're interested in industry vs small business and how America moved into an industrialized nation..well, this might hold your interest. If you've ever been curious about how paper is handmade, then this book might hold your interest. Even if you simply like romance, then this book just might hold your interest.

Raised Mennonite and among Amish friends in beautiful Lancaster County, she should be perfectly content, shouldn't she? But something inside beckons her to another world, another life. Can she leave her roots and her friends behind for a world she knows little about? Will she abandon everything, including the god her parents have taught her to follow? Englisch on Purpose is the prequel to J.E.B. Spredemann's award-winning book Amish by Accident and is the story of Elisabeth Schrock's best friend, Mattie. Members Reviews: Ok I got this book via audiobook boom. I read book 3 before reading this one so I basically understood what was going on. The narrator did a good job of moving the story along. I believe that the books need to be listened to in order in order to get a full sense of the story. Although they can each be read as stand alone books. book seemed written for a young teen. simply put. Reader had very little pitch and tone invert voice. Ending left you completely hanging. Book seems very simplistic. The few description words were at about a forth grade level. Englisch on Purpose Englisch on Purpose: A Prequel to Amish by Accident : J. E. B. Spredemann A story of a young woman's journey to discovering what she wants in life. There was sadness and lack of faith to deal with.This is not the sticky, gooey sweet Amish romance. I want to hear the rest of the series. The narration was well done.The characters were well portrayed. Kay L. Dees reading was way too slow for my taste. I put it on my Kindle and doubled the speed to make it more listenable for me. "I was voluntarily provided this review copy audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator." Appreciate the Gospel, but goes nowhere Mattie is Mennonite. Maddie moves to New York, leaving her family and best friend behind. The best friend (Elizabeth) misses Maddie. But, she has a beau. Will Elizabeth stay or leave the Amish (the girls are from different plain communities) or go to New York with Matty? Meanwhile, Matty's potential love interest, Richard, is on fire for the Lord, which is the best part of the book. But, the end just peter's out...there is absolutely no closure in these relationships and the book leaves you wondering what is going to happen to these relationships and who is going to live where. I understand this is a prequel to "Amish by Accident"-- but what I've read in the book reviews, it seems like these questions are never answered... I'll see when I listen to it. I'm also confused as to how you can get closure with a prequel when the next book in the series was actually written a couple years before this book. It's all very confusing. The narration was very poor, and I always try to give the narrator a break, but there was inflections that were just weird. At one solemn point in the book, the narrator has Mattie sounding like she's happy when the scene in a hospital called for solemnity.... it happened all throughout the book.

Who cares if she's 10 years older than he is. She's perfect. When Mari Baker moves in next door, Eli Rhodes is captivated by her fiery spirit and brunette curls. Sure, she's nothing like the singles bar hook-ups he usually entertains, but someone like her could make a man change his ways. When Mari Baker moves in next door, Joe Rhodes is unofficially engaged to Beth Havland, so why is this little snippet of a woman getting under his skin? Yeah, she's sweet and smart and shares his faith, but he and Beth have made plans. At least they've talked about making plans. When Mari Baker moves to Colorado Springs, she's looking for a fresh start - a new path. The first path she walks, however, is up the steps of the big Victorian house next door after she slips on the ice and throws her purse down the storm drain before she even has a chance to open the door of her new rental. The Rhodes brothers become her rescuing angels that night, and the next path that forms is the one between their house and hers. Members Reviews: Rocky Mountain Angels Jodi Bowersox has written and narrated a very sweet romance. When Mari moves in next door to the Rhodes brothers, she finds her Rocky Mountain Angels. There is a level of attraction to each of the brothers, but for very different reasons. As Mari gets to know the brothers, she also begins to find what it is she really wants in her life. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review. I loved this heartwarming story! Would you listen to Rocky Mountain Angels again? Why? What a sweet romance! I loved watching Mari get to know these three charming brothers who lived next door, and cheered for each one of them! Jodi has such a gift at weaving a story, and showing Mari's heart and faith in some difficult decisions. This book definitely left me wanting the rest of the series. Any additional comments? I don't know who rates the "steam-ometer" but this one was a sweet romance, not, getting much steamier than hugs and kisses. Angels among us, don't miss this story! Bowersox makes the Rocky Mountain Angel's come to life in this warm tale of three brothers and their new neighbor, Mari. The story is set in the very real location of Colorado Springs, or Old Colorado City and is believable from the beginning to the end. Bowersox the author is also the narrator and tells the story in the way it was intended to be told, something that a narrator with no connection to the story cannot do. Don't miss this story

He flies free. Local-foods chef Claire Halford envisions turning Green Acres Farm into an event destination. Weddings prove trickier than she imagined when the first one comes with a ruggedly handsome brother-of-the-bride, who has everything but a fixed address. Oh, and faith in God. Noel Kenzie loves the freedom his reforestation company affords him. Why worry about deep stuff like God and commitment when he's in his prime? Except there's a woman who might make it worth giving up his wings... and digging in some roots. If he dares. Members Reviews: A beautiful country romance. I enjoyed listening to the audio of this second book in the Farm Fresh Romance series by Valerie Comer. The story line flowed smoothly and kept me interested. Then there was a big incident at the end of the book that had me on the edge of my seat!! LOL *Thanks to the author for a complimentary copy of this book. I was not paid or required to post a positive review and all opinions stated are my own.* I'm in love with Noel Kenzie Would you consider the audio edition of Wild Mint Tea to be better than the print version? I didn't read the book I only listened to the audiobook. But the Audiobook was great. I kept telling Alexa play my audiobook. What other book might you compare Wild Mint Tea to and why? I can't think of anything but it's a great clean romance that keeps you listening and makes you want to fall in love again. Which scene was your favorite? The first kiss, and where she realizes that nothing is as important as God and the man in her life. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? When the fire took place it was written very well and parts of that section did bring a tear to my eye to think about how God is really the most important thing and that we should see life through that mindset. Nothing else matters but God and the people we can take to heaven with us. Any additional comments? Becky did a great job reading this she does a great job and I had no problem seeing Noel as a man in my mind as I was hearing her do his voice. Great job. Wild Mint Tea What did you like best about this story? I listened to the first book by this author, Raspberries and Vinegar, and book 2, Wild Mint Tea, was equally enjoyable. I really love these Farm Fresh Romance' novels with their rural settings and the FOOD---oh the farm-fresh food!!!! Great Characters and Fascinating Setting I enjoy Valerie Comer's ability to create realistic characters who are both flawed and lovable. I also really enjoy the settings she creates and how Green Acres Farm is a character in its own right in these books. Claire's willingness to recognize, address, and repent of things in her life she was putting above following God's plan challenged me to trust God more and dig deeper in my relationship with Him. I would personally have liked to see more growth in Noel's spiritual life before Claire agreed to marry him. Words are cheap and I felt like a simple profession of regained faith shouldn't have been enough for a woman who claims to have a deep faith that is everything to her.

From God's whispers to angel wings to human hearts, Another Angel of Love continues the heartrending story of faith and love. Beautifully moving, delving deeper into the realities of life's challenges. It was as if Jenny had vanished from the face of the earth. Two years after she and her family moved out of Henry's life after a whirlwind summer romance in 1956, Henry still longs for her. He was certain that she would respond to his last letter, a pewter angel tucked inside... but there have been no letters, no phone calls. Nothing. A country apart, Henry nor Jenny are unaware Jenny's parents have burned all the letters but the last... it is protected, it seems, by an angelic power. Henry continues to rely on the love, support, and powerful insights of his mentor Mr. Engelmann, and his secret plan to seek Jenny out sustains the hope that one day his first love will return - until he meets Julean Carter. But is their newfound love deep enough and strong enough to overcome the heavenly touch that entwined Henry and Jenny's spirits when they first gazed into each other's eyes? Another Angel of Love, a powerful spirit-filled story where human hearts and guardian angels meet... impossible to put down. Members Reviews: Love Angels.... I have now completed all four of Henry Ripplingers Angel Books and I loved them.....Now I have to wait for the fifth book and I am in agony. People need to be aware that this is a love story but each book is a teaching tool for spirituality and how loving God and being true to him affects our lives. They try to guide us to live our lives with faith and hope in God. I found a lot of repetition but that is where the teachings come in. Also travelling back to different situations in the characters lives was repetitious. I found myself skimming through a lot of the teachings trying to stay with the main story because I wanted to get to the hopefully, happy conclusion for the characters which was not to be since that will take place in the fifth book which does not make me happy and keeps me hanging in limbo.......It will be worth it I am sure...Lots of twists and turns. Lots of spiritual happenings. Full of Love.....Please read all the books...be patient....read slowly....and hopefully the fifth book will be waiting for you so you can enjoy what I hope is to be a beautiful ending....Also, I forgot to mention Lots of Angel interventions.

Happily ever after guaranteed. It takes a reality TV show for Wynne to realize love isn't just a game. Wynne Hardy never thought she'd get engaged on a reality TV show, but when she met Andy on The Rejection Connection, the two of them hit it off. Now he's asked her to marry him, much to the public's delight and fascination. They're all set to wed on live TV in a seaside ceremony at the height of the wedding season. But just as Wynne thinks all her dreams are coming true, her ex-boyfriend walks back into her life at the worst possible time. Steve broke her heart years ago, and she's still sorting through her feelings for him. Her heart isn't as clear as her head that it's past time to move on - even though she's engaged to Andy. At a local TV talk show appearance, Wynne meets Meredith, who won another reality TV show - Marathon Mom - proving herself nothing short of a superhero. As Wynne's beach wedding plans spin out of control, Meredith offers to help, unknowingly stepping on Wynne's secret feelings...and exposing some secrets Meredith has been keeping to herself. Can these two reality stars get real about their feelings? Will Wynne go through with her televised wedding and be the perfect June bride the network is looking for? Members Reviews: A bride on the rebound After breaking up with the one man who stole her heart, Wynne Hardy finds herself the star of a reality show, Rejection Connection. There she meets Andy and the two begin dating, soon becoming engaged. In the midst of all of the wedding festivities, Wynne reconnects with her ex-fiancee. Will she go through with her wedding to Andy or not? This novella disappointed me. I liked the premise of it - she's a contestant on a reality tv show, yet I found that the characters were a bit under-developed. First there's Wynne herself. She is obviously on the rebound, so I felt that she didn't have any business being on the show let alone planning a life with one of her "dates." Then there's Meredith. A star of a different reality show, I felt that she kept trying to steal what should have been Wynne's big day. Then the groom, Andy, I felt that he and Wynne didn't really know each other at all. I think I probably would have enjoyed this one more if it'd been a full length novel and not a novella. I've heard wonderful things about this author, and I'll probably try reading one of her full length novels at some point, but this particular novella was not for me. I received this book for free from the BookLook Blogger's program for the purpose of reviewing. My thoughts and opinions are my own. Recommended to fans of Year of Weddings, Love Inspired Rating - 2 stars Being a Star on TV Isn't Reality Wynne is a young woman who entered a contest and she was selected as the winner of a bachelorette show. Through several months and meeting many bachelors, Wynne selects Andy. He proposes and she accepts. Engagement ring is given. Then the show wants to draw this out because of the fan ratings and offers to pay for the wedding and a honeymoon, so the next step is taken almost immediately. She picks out a dress and a theme, and chooses a beach in NC This rush causes many doubts, as she sees this as serious, being a Christian. But one main eternal struggle involves her first love, Cullan.

Happily ever after guaranteed. Can she forgive the man who left her at the altar? Alyssa Pennington dated Brendan Myers for three years before she accepted his proposal. For almost a year, Alyssa's friends and family helped her plan a lovely wedding to take place in the church she'd grown up in. It was the happiest day of her life when she walked down the aisle to be united with the man of her dreams. But when Brendan left her at the altar, Alyssa was consumed by humiliation, embarrassment, and a broken heart that wouldn't allow her to trust anyone. Especially Brendan. Brendan Myers knows he will spend the rest of his life regretting what he did to Alyssa, the only woman he's ever loved. Without her, his life is empty. In one fateful moment, he'd panicked, destroyed their future, and ruined everything. Now he plans to win her back. But winning back his bride might prove much more difficult than he can imagine. And even if he does get her to the altar again, will she think turnabout is fair play? Members Reviews: Cute Alyssa Pennington is marrying the man she loves. In fact, she's walking down the aisle to her groom when the unthinkable happens. Her groom, Brendan Meyers, leaves her standing at the altar breaking her heart. Alyssa begins the process of returning wedding gifts and her dress, but even in the midst of her anger and hurt, she realizes that she still loves him. Brendan also is miserable without her. When another man begins to feel that Alyssa is free game now, Brendan is determined to fight for her. Can Alyssa trust him again? I think that this was the first book I've read by Beth Wiseman. I really enjoyed this one. I loved the characters. And I loved how Brendan fought for Alyssa. I know I'll be looking up other Beth Wiseman books and add them to my ever growing to read list. I thought that Alyssa showed wisdom when she asked to be left alone. Her heart needed a chance to heal before it could come back to Brendan. Yet I still loved Brendan. I loved how his family life played a huge part in who he was and how he was determined to make different life choices than what his family had done. Overall, this was a quick read. I think I probably enjoyed it more than some of the others in this series. I received a copy for free from BookLook Bloggers for the purpose of reviewing. My thoughts and opinions are my own. Recommended to fans of romance, novellas, Love Inspired Rating - 4 stars Second chances I enjoyed this story about second chances. When Brendan gets cold feet and leaves Alyssa at the alter, I wasn't surprised at the reason. Fears about turning out like our parents or other family members are so real and possible. But I was shocked when the real, true reason came out when they finally had a real conversation about it. Dalton seemed like an okay guy especially since he didn't pressure her to go against the goal she made long ago. But when he did what he did at Christmas, I lost all good thought or respect toward him. Was happy with the way the story turned out A Miss For Wiseman I purchased this book because I have enjoyed Beth Wiseman's other books. This particular book, in my opinion, had a flimsy plot and weak characters. I would encourage you to give this one a miss and read her Daughters of the Promise collection instead.

Can everything? Maggie Doyle has one night to raise fifteen thousand dollars, or it's bye-bye home and business, the only good things she has left. Her only option? Find the stepbrother she hasn't spoken to in years - the one who ruined her life to begin with - and hope against hope he'll cough up the cash. Jack Major's got his life all mapped out. He's rich, powerful, and about to marry Boston's most successful attorney. So why can't he forget Maggie - the girl who walked out of his life ten years ago, and refused to tell him what he'd done wrong? When Maggie's search for her stepbrother leads her to the Deveaux Ball, a high-profile charity event in Boston, she runs into Jack and the sparks fly. But is it too late for a first love to re-ignite? And if she reveals her secret, will Jack leave her for good? One night in Boston is all they have to find true love, or lose everything. Members Reviews: One Night of Disappointment What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? The narration was pretty flat, characters didn't stand out from one another and not much enthusiam when it was necessary. Storyline did not do much for me either. Started at the beginning with high hopes and just continued to listen about a trainwreck night that mostly blew out of proportion because of the characters' overeaggerated responses to situations. Book could have been a lot shorter and less dragged out with repetetive drama that couldn't engage the reader. Would you ever listen to anything by Allie Boniface again? NOPE, Would you listen to another book narrated by Rebecca Van Volkinburg? Probably not. What character would you cut from One Night in Boston? Even though he is the whole reason Mags goes to Boston, I'd cut Dillon. He is not present for 90% of the story and doesn't need to be. Any additional comments? Lame read but for 4.95 you get what you pay for. not good would not waste money or credit!!! will never use this AUTHOR AGAIN!! Wish could delete and get a credit for trouble

Will he be her saving grace? Or would it be the handsome Dr. Carter Harding? She discovers herself and love on a rugged trip back to the scene of the tragedy. During the trip, her life is spared yet again. She knows God has spared her for a reason, twice. Now she needs to do something with that spared life. Part 2 Cecilia, a woman jilted years earlier, threatens Susannah's happy marriage. She vows to get revenge and discovers the best way to do that is to drive Susannah back to the mental hospital. Cecilia seeks to destroy Susannah and her husband. Can she destroy the couple who are within the shield and armor of God? Members Reviews: True Western Love Heart wrenching storyline with a true sweet love, I found it sweet and charming with a touch of crazy. ( you'll understand when you read it ) The narrative was a little to slow for me, had a lovely voice just maybe a little to mellow/emotionless in my option. But than again, I'm sure that's how they may have spoken back in the day. Western Romance Full of Action Sweet Susannah is only 17 years when Indians ride onto her family's farm and slaughter her father, mother, and four younger siblings. Shocked and fearful, she hides in a cornfield for two days waiting for help. With all her family dead, Susannah is sent away to live with a cousin, but the trauma has affected her so much that she can't speak without crying, and her nightmares keep the family awake at night. Her cousin's heartless wife insists that Susannah be sent away to an insane asylum. At the asylum, Susannah meets Ben Turner, a pleasant young man who befriends her and helps her learn the asylum's ways. She also meets Dr. Carter Harding, who is the first to see that she isn't insane, only shocked and fearful of what she witnessed. Carter is drawn to her sweetness, candor, and determination and begins to develop feelings for her. Carter works to get her released and placed in a welcoming home with his brother and sister-in-law. Unfortunately, also visiting his brother's home is a woman from his past who is determined to have Carter for herself, or revenge herself by hurting those he loves. This western romance was originally published in two parts, but is seamless in this narration. The writing is simple and straightforward. There were so many twists and turns it kept me interested to see what happened to Susannah next! I'm not sure I would call this a clean romance. While there were no detailed descriptions, there was a lot of sex, referring to sex, references to rape, attempted rape, and using sex as a tool. It was a bit jarring to read that next to so many references to God and prayer. The narrator's voice was pleasant but incredibly slow. I turned the speed up to 1.25x and it was closer to a normal speed.

Book one in a new series of contemporary Christian romance from Elizabeth Maddrey, A Splash of Substance is a heartwarming romance that also provides listeners a chance to consider their views on the civic responsibility of Christians and sustainable living in the suburbs. Members Reviews: Sweet romance and creative professions! Normally, I'm a small-town girl through and through but this story set in the hubbub of the DC area doesn't have that overwhelming lost in a crowd feeling. It is loaded with intimate relationships and authentic church community. Both the main characters have interesting professions that I enjoyed learning a bit more about and their relationship progressed in a natural way (bumpy but natural). I would definitely be interested in more stories from this series! I listened to this book on audible and the quality of the narration was excellent! I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook. The opinions expressed are my own. Enjoyable Christian Love Story Enjoyable romance and political story. Showing that God's will not be overcome. Excellent choice for Christians looking for a great story. Love Triumphs over misunderstandings I loved this book. The story was easy to follow and I felt like the characters were well developed. There was enough surprises to keep it interesting. I laughed and felt frustrated or excited along with the characters. Overall well done. The worst. Narration. I have ever. Heard in my. Life. The story was not my cup. Of tea. Either. And I am not an uneducated. Person. I'm writing my review like this. For a. Reason. Because. Much of the book. Was narrated just like. This.

Members Reviews: Boring! This book wasnt for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more? The story line is slow to start. Too many characters presented from the get-go. I didn't listen past the first hour. The narrator was excellent. What could Lisa Tawn Bergren have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you? Fewer characters from the start. Move the story line to the ship quicker and move the story along faster once they get there. What does Stephanie Brush bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Great pronounciations. Clear reading. If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from The Captain's Bride? Within the first hour? Maybe half of it. Loved this book Would you consider the audio edition of The Captain's Bride to be better than the print version? The audio version of this book was excellent. I LOVED the way Stephanie Brush read this book to me. Interesting story line. Can't wait to read book 2 in the series. It was recommended by Francine Rivers (my favorite author), and Lisa Tawn Bergren does not disappoint Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting? No. Any additional comments?

Goss Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 19 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: As an infant, Running Brook is kidnapped by the Comanche; as a teenager, she is rescued by gentle Quakers and introduced to Christian beliefs; as a young adult, she searches for love and her true heritage. Discreetly disguised as a boy, Brook travels to Texas with a tantalizing young army captain and his Indian guide. There she finds her father who welcomes her with open arms. But Brook's stepmother and Ram, her handsome stepbrother, resent her. When she accidently discovers Ram's underhanded schemes, she knows that her life is in danger. Isolated on the ranch, is there anywhere she can go for help? Would she dare to turn to Captain Jeremy Grant for help? She had finally found her real family, but had she lost her heritage? This story weaves together adventure, faith, and love in a captivating story. Members Reviews: Historical Romance with Strong Female Lead Running Brook was kidnapped as an infant and raised by the Comanche until she was 16. Rescued and taken in by a Quaker couple, she's taught about God and learns to speak English. Two years later, the gentle Quaker man tracks down two families that lost infant girls who might be Running Brook. He enlists Captain Jeremy Grant and his friend Dusty to take Running Brook to Fort Worth to reunite with her family. When the book begins, Running Brook is disguised as a boy and travels with the men to Fort Worth. Along the way, she and Dusty become easy friends, the Indian man reminding her of a childhood friend. She and Captain Grant clash during the trip, and her conflicting feelings for the hard man have her doubting his morals. When she arrives in Forth Worth, she meets a family who might be her own, but they carry secrets that put her in danger. This was another great historical romance from Barbara Goss! She did a great job portraying the hardships faced by the Native Americans on reservations during that time period. Brook was a strong female lead, and held her own against the intrigue. I especially loved Maggie and Flora, both were motherly characters I could picture in real life. The writing is simple and straightforward, and contains a Christian message. The narration was well done, Leon Nixon has a great voice and tone. He narrates evenly and not dramatically. I received a copy of the audiobook, and I'm voluntarily leaving a review. Entertainment with a religion and history lesson Would you listen to Stolen Heritage again? Why? I enjoyed listening to this book but it isn't one I would listen to more than once. It is very simplified and not terribly realistic but it was a nice story and worth listening to. Who was your favorite character and why? The grandmother added a little comedy. Which scene was your favorite? When she meets her real grandmother. Any additional comments? I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher. Stolen Heritage Brook is a strong woman who is to be reunited with her family many years after being kid napped by the Comanche. As she is trying to fit in to her new way of life she experiences more heartache and intrigue, but also the possibility of love. Barbara Goss is a wonderful storyteller and this book does not disappoint. I highly recommend it! I thoroughly enjoyed Leon Nixon's performance. Well done! My favorite one, so far. Loved it, all the possible ways it could have gone at any time. I could really feel for the women.

That's the vow Linney Van Horn has made regarding single dads and their adorable children. After all, that's why she's tucked tail and hauled herself and her beloved Arabian horse clear across the country from New Jersey to the small town of Venture, Colorado. To mend her bruised heart - and ego - and start over. However, the good Lord has a different "do-over" in mind for Linney. She finds herself living next door to Stonewall "Stone" Wheeler, the frustratingly stubborn, but oh, so ruggedly hand-some farrier, and his seven-year-old son, Beau. A widower, Stone has buried himself in his work to avoid the grief of losing his wife. Determined to grow his horse-shoeing business and raise his child, falling in love is the last thing on his mind. Until an equally stubborn - but pretty as a daisy - teacher moves into the cottage besides his, and charms both him and his son. Divine intervention. Yup, it's a beautiful thing. It's going to take one adorable little boy, a pair of spirited horses, and a near-fatal accident to convince Linney and Stone a second chance at a grace-filled forever is theirs for the asking. Members Reviews: Touching clean wholesome read Any additional comments? I really liked this story it is a very touching romance that moves nice and steady reaching out and touching your heart from lost love to losing so much more when your heart breaks and just cant take anymore you close it off so tight no one or nothing can come in. The author gives you a wonderful spiritual story of finding your way back to God and forgiving yourself and the things you do not understand. Sometimes things are taken away so you can find a road that holds more love than you have ever seen. A wonderful clean sweet read that really pulls you in letting you find peace that is very exciting with a little adventure and some sadness with an ending that will melt your heart. The narrator as always does an outstanding job pulling on your heartstrings with the emotion she puts in her voice. She has a very lovely voice that really takes you away as she goes from one character to the other. Bo voice and tones were wonderful you knew when he was excited or sad and even pouting. He was just adorable. Her male and female characters really pull you in from their trying times to the joy they give each other. You have no trouble knowing just who is talking and what they are feeling. The narrator really makes you hold your breath a time or two as danger is near leaving your heart beating fast she changes from excitement to chilling and scared. There are no repeating of words, no background or any place where the volume changes, just a very clean and clear listen that holds your attention from start to finish. Her performance is outstanding and kept me spellbound from one scene to the next. I have really enjoyed this narrator and watching her talent grow with each audio she performs. The author really put a lot of thought into bring you a story that will just about make your heart stop a time or two. The last dangerous scene had me hanging on the edge begging someone to do something. I felt I was right there with Linney as her cries became mine. My heart broke for all that she lost as the author throws a twist leaving you guessing how it will play out. Stone has turned away from God he has lost way more than any person should lose.

Title: A May Bride Author: Meg Moseley Narrator: Amber Quick Format: Unabridged Length: 2 hrs and 38 mins Language: English Release date: 04-22-14 Publisher: Zondervan Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: A year's worth of novellas from 12 inspirational romance authors. Happily ever after guaranteed. She thinks she has prepared for her wedding all her life...but it seems she may have forgotten the most important part. Ellie Martin, a country girl in Atlanta, has dreamed of a traditional wedding all her life - a wedding just like the one her younger sister is planning back home. Their single mom will pay for Alexa's wedding, but Ellie started her own wedding fund years ago. She only needs to find a groom. At a wedding at her church, Ellie bumps into a man who's one of the guests. She's noticed him around the neighborhood, but today he introduces himself as Gray Whitby. They embark on a whirlwind romance, but her mother doesn't trust freewheeling men like Gray. When Ellie risks her own future for her sister's sake, Gray feels betrayed. Will he always play second fiddle to Ellie's family? Will Ellie and Gray reconcile their differences so her dream wedding can come true, or will the romance they've begun come crashing down? Members Reviews: Not my favorite in the series Ellie Martin has been planning her wedding for years. She's even got a wedding fund. Only thing she's missing is the groom. When she meets Graham Whitby one morning while gardening at a church, she thinks he's handsome. He starts to pursue her. Before long, they are in love. But with an overbearing mother in her family, will they find happily ever after? Of all of the novellas in the Year of Weddings Series I've read so far, this one is by far my least favorite. Maybe it's because it's told in first person narration and the others aren't. I normally don't have a problem with first person narratives. But for some reason, this one kinda grated on me. I really didn't care for Ellie much at all. It seemed that she was determined to do everything that her mother didn't like and the scenes between them were filled with tension. I thought that Gray was smooth talking and moving way too fast. Still, the wedding scenes were beautiful and the pastor was a surprise delight. And while I didn't particularly care for the novella, others may find it delightful, especially if reading this series. I received this novella for free from the Booklook Bloggers Program for the purpose of reviewing. I was not required to like the book, only give my honest opinion. My thoughts and opinions are my own. Recommended to fans of weddings, Love Inspired, novellas Rating - 2 stars - I didn't really care for it. Another fun novella in the Year of Weddings Novellas Ellie's mother has always tried to rule everything so when she left home, Ellie started a wedding fund so her mother would have absolutely no say in anything to do with her wedding. Her mother was quite hypocritical and obnoxious. I liked how Ellie and Graham met and how he pushed to make Ellie realize what was important. I've been in the place where others don't see the importance or priority of things. It's not a happy place to be. It's interesting how we justify things. Though I wasn't real happy with Ellie's choice with her sister's wedding, it was nice that she and Graham worked together and made a nice Plan B wedding happen. Just what I needed today... Read this novella in one sitting. Could NOT put it down. I love Meg's books, and this one certainly did not disappoint. Great story.

Yet if he continues to pursue Nellie, he risks losing everything. Nellie, too, is torn. She longs to marry her Old Order beau but cannot ignore the gentle pull she feels toward the faith of her New Order family. Can she and her beloved satisfy the expectations of the People while remaining true to their hearts? ©2008 Beverly Lewis; (P)2008 Oasis Audio Members Reviews: Nellie Mae's story continues This is the second book in the "Courtship of Nellie Fisher" series, the first beingThe Parting (The Courtship of Nellie Fisher, Book 1)and the thirdThe Longing (The Courtship of Nellie Fisher, Book 3). I very much enjoyed the first book in this series, and am happy to say that I also enjoyed this second book. Lewis continues the story of Nellie Mae. Nellie Mae and Caleb's relationship is just one of the stories running through this book. Nellie's sisters are all travelling different paths, and the grief about Suzy's death still remains. Meanwhile Rosanna and Kate have come to a disagreement regarding the twins, and in the middle of everything is religion. Lewis has done it again with this book. I definitely recommend this story and series, and will be picking up the third book very soon. I'm disappointed in the fact I paid more $$ for this ... This review is more about the production of this book on CD than the book, I'm disappointed in the fact I paid more $$ for this trilogy than for any I've ever bought and in my excitement of finding it available I failed to noticed it was an abridged version, One would think for this much $$ you would get the whole book ,so shame on me I will remember this. Sad Granif 2 of 3 great books Just as I expected this turned out to be another fantastic book. With some more suffering for Nellie Mae & Caleb but therefore making this sequel more interesting... Now I'm ready for the last book in this series & predict that I'll love it as much or more than books 1 & 2. Great Romance, Historical Fication The second novel in "The Courtship of Nellie Fisher." Have thoroughly enjoyed this trilogy. Great fiction about how the Amish began to discover the Gospels and began Bible study groups, which went against the old order. It's a beautiful love story, as well as a story of how families split. Beverly Lewis did a lot of research for this series. Have enjoyed the suspense. Five Stars Loved it!

Mail Order Compromise Audiobook by Barbara Goss

Title: Mail Order Compromise Subtitle: Kansas Brides Series, Book 5 Author: Barbara Goss Narrator: Reagan Boggs Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 25 mins Language: English Release date: 05-12-17 Publisher: Barbara A. Goss Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 24 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Brock hides his wealth from Sarah as a guarantee that she'll love him for himself and not his money. Not only does she accept him as a simple bank teller, she prefers a simpler life. Trouble finds her while she is remodeling the old farmhouse, and the bank robbers return, thinking she's Elaina. Just when everyone thought the couple's love would last forever, she discovers shocking news about Brock that sets her packing and moving in with Elaina and Pete. Brock has to accomplish two things: get his wife back, and convert her to becoming a Christian. Members Reviews: Cute story! What did you like best about this story? If you forgot all the bad, would you still choose the good? This was a clean and (non-preachy!) Christian book, with a wholesome story of faith, strength and forgiveness. Although I wanted to hit Brock and sometimes Sarah on the head with a saucepan for being so obtuse at times, I really liked how the story turned out and how they overcame their difficulties. Love is faithfulness, giving, and... compromise! I just wish people wouldn't jump to conclusions like it happened in the story, but it also happens in real life. As for Reagan Boss's narration, it was pleasant and fitting, I really enjoyed the soothing quality of her voice. I removed a star because - though I'm not sure whether this is a narration or an editing issue - I felt some sentences ran into others. At times a new scene/chapter started without any pause as an indication, so it irked me a little that some characters appeared to teleport or appear out of nowhere! I asked the author for a free copy of the story in exchange for a review, and I was happily surprised! Barbara Gross writes stories that are usually shorter than others, but that's because she doesn't spend time on nonsense. It's very nice to start and finish a book in the same day, even though I miss the characters a little when it ends. Definitely recommend! Clean Romance with a Christian Message When Sarah gave up her train ticket to Kansas to her best friend Elaina, she didn't know that God had a better plan for her. After being shunned by the members of her church for her mother's mistakes and dealing with an awful situation at home, she doesn't trust in God at all. Sarah exchanges letters with Brock from Hunter's Grove Kansas, and decides to make the trip to meet him. All she wants is a comfortable home she can make her own and a man to take care of and love. When Brock starts writing to Sarah, he decides to hide his wealth and pretend to be a poor bank teller. He moves into an old farmhouse and only brings along one servant. He doesn't feel comfortable lying to Sarah but he wants to make sure she loves him for himself and not his money. He finds himself in love with Sarah before he knows it, but is shocked to find that she isn't a Christian. Before he can bring her to know God as he does, she's mistaken for Elaina and kidnapped by bank robbers. The Christian message in this book is about being unequally yoked, and of course trusting in God. Sarah's doubts and struggles with God's plan and the hypocrisy of church members are real, and they are struggles many modern Christians have faced.

Title: The Kissing Bridge: Cassie's Story Subtitle: Hearts of Hays, Book 3 Author: Barbara Goss Narrator: Garrett L. Whitehead Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 42 mins Language: English Release date: 04-20-17 Publisher: Barbara A. Goss Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 24 votes Genres: Romance, Religious & Inspirational Publisher's Summary: Hays, Kansas 1886. Courted by Silas for three years, Cassie feels it's time to move their relationship to the next level: marriage. Silas is forced to reveal a secret past life that must be dealt with before he can commit. This secret takes him to Kansas City where he is thrown into jail for a crime he claims he didn't commit. After not hearing from Silas for months, Cassie decides to move on with her life. If Silas returns, will he forgive her? Christian romance. Members Reviews: I feel that I am being repetitious, however... ... I cannot think of any other words to describe the wonderful, "clean," innocent, historical romances by the talented Barbara Goss. I recommend any of the books written by Barbara Goss or narrated by the wonderful performance of Garrett L. Whitehead This book was given to me in exchange for my unbiased review. If this review helps you, please select "yes" below this paragraph. Thank you for reading it and consider following me on audible. Could be two books, actually! Everyone makes mistakes, but not all are ready to deal with their consequences. Silas wasn't ready, but he had to face his past and make things right before he could have a future. This is a (non-preachy!) Christian, clean romance that I found so sweet! I could partly guess where the story was headed and what had actually happened, but I still found it great fun to follow the characters along. The story of Cassie and Silas was a good lesson on how to stay true to both your heart and what is right - and how to hold your ground when you see things are headed in the wrong direction. This book can be divided into two archs, one about solving the past and one about solving the present. I found the second part - in particular what happened the day of the counseling - to be unnecessary. The second part of the book wasn't bad by any means, but I think the book would have been able to stand on its own without the added drama. I loved the first part of the book and was a little disappointed by what happened when things started getting back on track - it might have been because I'd finished Mail Order Compromise recently, and seeing a similar event wasn't as impactful. Garrett Whitehead has a very pleasant voice and clear narration. I had listened to other books from the same author that had been narrated by the same female (Reagan Boggs) and even though she is very talented, it was a nice surprise to listen to the story being told by an equally talented male narrator. Will definitely look forward to listening more from him in the future! I removed a star because - though I'm not sure whether this is a narration or an editing issue - I felt some sentences ran into others. At times a new scene/chapter started without any pause as an indication, so it irked me a little that some characters appeared to teleport or appear out of nowhere!

Emily, the female lead, has worked in a Circus until an injury. She decides to move to Montana where she meets the male lead, Matthew. Overall, another Good Read by the author. I always look forward to this series and anything written by this author. Alan Taylor did really well with the narration, his voice was clear and calming. Note: "This audio book was provided by the author, narrator, or publisher at no cost in exchange for an unbiased review." A bride for Matthew Overall review for Sun River Brides, books 2-5: Karla Gracey's Mail Order Bride series is a series of sweet romantic shortstories. The stories are very fast-paced and only told - not showed. In some books I didn't connect with the characters at all. You won't get much background stories to the characters' lives and in some points you only get the point of view from one of them. These books are good entertainment if you need a short listen once in a while. About 'A Bride for Matthew': If I should choose a favorite of books 2-5, this is the one. We have a couple falling in love - I think - he's a widower with a 6 yo son, she's temporarily disabled in a wheel chair and then the 3 of them have to make connections. I think it went pretty well. Still, we need to have romance and passion between the couple, but it doesn't seem to meet my needs when it comes to a romance story. Alan Taylor did a very good job in narrating this series and has a very pleasant voice and made characters come to life. I'd love to hear him in other books as well. *This book was gifted to me in exchange for an honest review. A Bride for Matthew Loved it! Another sweet story of two people falling in love with a few twists added A wonderful emotion fun listen that leaves you lau Any additional comments? I really enjoyed this story it is short and sweet but it pack a lot into it. I would have liked to have seen them get to know each. The author does show some of this but most is done behind the scenes. I love the Circus part, the animals and how Emily bought her beloved animal into the story. The love of animals shows very much. I totally enjoyed the stories about the animals and all they could do. I found myself laughing out loud at some of the tricks. It was a very enjoyable read from start to finish. Mr. Taylors narration was wonderful he really brought the characters to life. His male voices were just as pleasant as his females were. There was not any background noise, or any places where the volume was higher or lower at the start of a chapter. If any breaks were taken you could not tell.

Teen heartthrob Bobby Conrad agrees to perform at a fundraiser concert. But just two weeks before the highly publicized event, Bobby backs out of the benefit. Enter Johnny Hartman, a young, unknown singer. Debbie soon realizes the twists and turns leading up to the concert have been divinely orchestrated. And it isn't dreamy Bobby Conrad who has stolen her heart - but the tender Johnny Hartman. Members Reviews: American Band Stand! Elvis Presley! Bobby Socks! What made the experience of listening to Love Me Tender the most enjoyable? Love me Tender is a fun story for those who would like to reminisce about the past. The fun part of this story is that at the beginning of each chapter we get some fun bits of info about the 50s. Just before we see the story unfold in each chapter, an announcement is made in the Heart Throb Magazine telling about the movie stars from Hollywood along with their love affairs, divorces and marriages. I even got to hear about the clothes and hair trend of the era, while gas prices were 50 cents a gallon. Each announcement kept me up to date as I followed the fun story about a young man who makes it big as a star. American Band Stand! Elvis Presley! Bobby Socks! Sweet and Easy Janice Thompson's love story was easy to follow and very sweet. I enjoyed the take back to the 1950's and I thought she stayed true to the time period both in plot and character development. Leading heavily with the Christian influence--I mean, it's in the title-- in all elements of the novel, I enjoyed that the message was not pushed "in your face" but rather subtle and encouraging and worked well with many of the character's demeanor. Could that be found in real life, not sure, but it worked for this novel. Narrator Piper Brown had a sweet and easy to listen to voice which worked perfect for this tale. Her character voice changes were sometime not very distinct which caused a little confusion as to who was speaking, but I truly enjoyed her ability to not go over the top and create a great listening environment with her pacing, and tempo. Overall I would recommend this book. I was given this book in exchange for an honest review. Great story, fantastic narration. Romances are not usually my cup of tea, but I found this one sweet and delightfully tender. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Narration was wonderful; the characters really came alive through their varied natures, but at no point were the differences distracting or awkward. Give it a listen! Cute I usually love Janice Thompsons books. I have listened to most of them on audible. However, the girl in this story is so shallow in her facination with the famous actor that it gets in the way of admiring her for her big heart and kindness. It may be my personal dislike for celebrity chasers and fawning girls fainting over celebrities, but I just can't enjoy her. the narrator is wonderful and the other characters are very likeable. The over the top alliteration with names in the story gets a little old. Maybe that is how it was in the 50s. I don't know. Loved it! Loved the characters. Loved the story. Loved that it was a Christian story. Loved that it was set in the 50's.
