Nicole and the Unending TBR

I am so happy!!!!! Sigh..... I will miss having one more book in the age of faith series to read, but this ending was just perfection!!!!! I loved the plot I loved the characters! I loved that Tamara features a heroine who is in her 30s!!!!! Yes! There was action, there were childers who needed a champion! It references all the people that this series has made so dear to me. I loved how the romance played out, different from the other books, but all the heart eyes!!!!!!!

Yes! Back to Deep Haven! I was very intrigued when Susan may Warren announced that she was going to have new authors join her in writing Deep Haven stories.  What would they be like? I was completely pulled into this story! It had the drama,  romance and formula that I love in Susan's books, and so many characters from Deep Haven that I loved. I really enjoyed this author's voice and the way she told this story.  I am a huge sucker for veteran stories! What really touched me was the heroines struggle with her own feelings of being unworthy,  man that hit home for me. A struggle I'm sure many have and told in a way that gives such hope. I read this while on vacation,  tucked into a cabin,  it was perfect! This story is a type of second chance romance that pulled at my emotions and I really enjoyed it!

It has been a long time since I have read a book in a day, and this was the one to draw me in like that! I love the way Jody hedlund writes historical romance.  She has well crafted,  multi dimensional characters.  The on page chemistry is there in the right places.  I love marriage of convenience stories and this one checked all the right boxes for me. I loved how the relationship between the two main characters grew slowly,  we got to see them build their relationship and learn things that they needed to grow in. I loved the frontier setting and how there was a bit of danger and drama to keep me flying through the pages.  I loved the story,  loved the romance.  All the things! I recieved a complementary copy of this book from the publisher through Netgally.  All opinions in this review are completely my own and honest.

I loved so much in this book! It was one of those books that I had seen on a few tours on Instagram,  but I hadn't read anything from that author before. I got the book when it went on sale and was looking forward to reading it.  I'm so glad I got to it! This author is going into my "must read" for contemporary romance.  She writes her characters in such a way that I just root for them! I lived how the characters had struggles that they had to overcome in their own growth and how their faith cam into play with that. The series is called "everyday romance " and that is so perfect.  These are characters that face those every day challenges and how to apply their faith and values in their life. I loved the "sizzle factor " and how it was incorporated into the romance.  I got to see how they had the chemistry and spark, but also how to face situations when they needed to make those decisions to stay true their convictions.  I love seeing how the faith ...

Oh. Wow. This. Book. Buy it!!!!!!!!! This book follows the story of the sister we met in the first book, and wow. I didn't think I would like Catherine as much as I did. She was just someone that I was rooting for.  Loved her redemption story.  And David......I mean...swoooooon! This love story took a spin that I did not anticipate, but it was soooooooo good! Pepper Basham knows how to build the chemistry at just the right pace and bring the heat, at just the right level and still stay clean.  Fantastic story. I loved it and recommend this to anyone who wants swoony romance set in world war 1!

Ah the book that started my obsession with all things Tamara Leigh! Going back and reading this book for the second time after several years was so nostalgic and delightful! I love the enemies to lovers trope and Tamara Leigh's books deliver that tension in spades! Seeing this book now I can see how much this author has grown and how her writing has only gotten better over the years! I enjoyed seeing this story play out again, the conflict, the intrigue, the love story that only Tamara can tell. The character arc that always leaves me smiling at the end of the book because you see how far they have come. Both Annyn and Garr had lessons they needed to learn, discoveries to be made and truth that needed to uncover. Wulfrith Forever!

I have been saying for years that Connilynn Cossette is my favorite Biblical fiction writer.  This book is her very first in a duology.  This book is so beautiful! The story is well crafted and it drew me in , because it is a two part story I am eager for the second! Boy .....am I eager! I loved the subtle references to her other series, and I loved seeing her characters grow! The pacing of this book is a bit slower in parts compared to some of her other books. However it is so good! Have I mentioned how I love how this author can weave a story?!!! She weaves such depth and truth into her fiction it is amazing.  The characters are flawed, and you see how their past has shaped how they view themselves.  I loved the message of adoption and being seen by The God Who Sees! A touching journey and a great new beginning!
