The Forge- An Empowering read
“The greatest gift you give Him is yourself. All of you. And that becomes the greatest gift you give the world, the way you allow God access to every nook and cranny of your life.” That’s one of the many jewels (lines) that stuck out to me while reading The Forge by Chris Fabry. In […]
Mountain Abduction Rescue
While I have read other Inspirational Romance books by Jodie Bailey, this was the first story that I’ve read in her K-9 Unit series. Although this is book five, it was easy to read without having to go back to reference other stories. And then when I check again, I wash astonished by how quickly each […]
Now Available: Texas Ranch Cold Case
Texas Ranch Cold Case by Virginia Vaughn is the fourth book in her Cowboy Protector series. Each storyline stands alone, with four cousins and their ranch connecting the stories. I enjoy getting to know Tucker and Ally. In this book, the main characters investigate a cold case from twenty years ago where Ally, the main […]
What We Hide- A New Release
Colleen Coble and Rick Acker’s new book, What We Hide, introduces a fresh setting that differs from Coble’s usual stories (and Acker is a new author to me). I imagined a thrilling story set at Tupelo University, filled with suspenseful scenes and hidden secrets. The introduction of the first person POV character was a clever […]
This Story Will Grip you until the last Page
Truth Be Told brought to mind the powerful narratives a grandmother weaves about the past, holding your attention until she’s done speaking. The story was taken over by Professor Annalee Spain’s voice, leaving me captivated and eager to uncover the identity of the person who poisoned a young black woman, in a time when our […]

The Filbert Ridge Miracle- Now Available
It was October 7, 1967. The festival in Filbert Ridge, Oregon, came early, and many wondered if they had followed the usual tradition of celebrating the hazelnut harvest on the second Saturday of October, perhaps things would have gone in a different direction. Instead, town history and the lives of its citizens changed forever. That […]
The Crown Conspiracy- Adventure at it’s best!
The Crown Conspiracy by Connie Mann had the adventure of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, but with something many suspense thrillers lack. A female lead. I loved being immersed in such a diverse culture where women were at the helm. The Christian theme brought a thought-provoking element I haven’t seen in many stories of […]
The Garden Girls… A GRITTY INSPIRATIONAL READ
The Garden Girls is the first story I’ve read by Jessica Patch. She knows how to string together the perfect setting for a psychological thriller. Then, she delved into the mind of a creepy, yet charming villain. She did a great job incorporating a hurricane into an already suspenseful, fast driven plot. Lastly, the faith […]
Out For Blood is an adrenaline rush!
My eyes could not scan the action scenes fast enough in Out for Blood by Ryan Steck. The author did an amazing job of creating a wild puzzle, then placed Redd and his enemies into realistic scenarios that ratcheted the suspense. Emotions ran high and egos placed innocent lives in jeopardy. A few scenes almost […]
