Final Justice
The final book in the Reunion Revelations series answers the questions of who, what, why, and how. It's the romance between Jennifer Pappas and Mason Grant that is somewhat threatened. There are secrets. There are threats. And, there is happily ever after.
Firstborn
This was a powerful book about adoption and what happens when the child you gave up appears at your door twenty odd years later. It was a hard book for me to read as I was the child given up who made a phone call twenty odd years later. I thought the parents' reactions were all very real. I had a harder time identifying with the daughter - probably because she wasn't doing what I would have
Shadows at the Window
Lilly has a past she's not quite willing to share; a past someone else is definitely not willing to let her forget. This is the second first person suspense from Linda Hall. My favorite scene was the redemption of friendship between Lilly and her Moira. I also liked the tension of figuring out a clue while aboard a plane when there's not a thing you can do.
Humor for a Mom's Heart
Filled with humor about the adventures and misadventures of motherhood. My favorite stories, though, were the ones featuring dads - especially when dads had to take on the roles of mothers.
A Dropped Stitches Christmas
Carly Winston comes to know God after taking the role of Mary in a Nativity play. She practices her lines with Randy, a restaurant owner. In the end, even though Carly's the understudy and Randy's the 'friend', both wind up on stage opening night. Their romance and road to opening night is filled with discoveries: about God and about each other. A true happily-ever-after.
Quiet as the Grave
When Michael Frome's wife disappears, people look at him suspiciously. When her body turns us two years later, people really look at him suspiciously. Suzie Strickland at one time expected Michael to be her knight in shining armor. Thanks to Justine, Suzie Strickland's life didn't include Michael Frome. Now, years later, Suzie is falling in love with Michael Frome all over again. She's a
Laurie Graham
I totally loved this book. It had a central character, Peggy, who not only told her story but also told the story of five girlfriends starting from their time in England 1952, American military wives, and ending with their sunset years. I cared for each and every character! Graham nailed characterization and story both! Something I've been longing for in the last few books I've read. Oh
Whose Number Is Up, Anyway?
I do love first person mysteries. This book was more mystery than romance but that's probably because it's a series. We'll see the h and h again. This book is about a decorator who has the Jessica Fletcher knack for being where murder is. Two things I liked about this book: I thought the 'ploy' the lottery ticket buyers had devised was great. I also liked that diva mother had a mafia pa
