A lot of potential in this book, but once again editing and a rushed ending seemed to get in the way. As a grade one teacher I am used to reading a lot of spelling errors, and while I notice them they do not tend to take away from the writing for me. This time however, I found it to be glaringl...
Embers of Hope “Second Edition”:When you’re dealing with a divorce, a small child, and a breakup with your best friend, life is tough! In Embers of Hope, this describes Savanna, the central character, as she faces life’s challenges. I liked the author’s genuine style in portraying Savanna as re...
It was...cute. I love short stories, so I'm accustomed to them getting straight to the point without a lot of buildup that you find in longer novels. I wish there'd been a tad more...how shall I say...angst, which is usually what makes contemporary romances so much fun to read.That said, it was a...
This was a very short, but sweet romance. There wasn't much time to develop characters, delve into internal struggles or really establish any kind of believable conflict and/or resolution. But, the writing and editing was good (which is a BIG plus nowadays). If your looking for a quick read while...
Hope is the name given to the baby girl. Her mother Amanda dies in a tragic car accident ... the end explains the cause, but not why was she out on that road At All and so late at night. The night after they had just buried her husband, Hope's father, Ricky, killed in action just as he was about ...
This was a properly short read but it definately warmed my heart. Lately i have been a fan of "solider romance" and this is the second one i have delved into and enjoyed. We learn straight away that Aiden & Viviannes marriage is struggling, like really struggling. We learn about the magic of chri...
Cora thought it’d been about two hours. It was hard to guess the distance because he’d driven in circles and had to slow down for the twisting roads (especially for the gravel ones). He pulled the car into a small, worn out garage (or maybe it was a shed), and turned the ignition off. She was gla...
“Jump in!” he ordered. Robin could only trust that he’d seen the driver and knew it was safe. She climbed in with him right behind her and the car took off. No one spoke. Grayson watched out the windows as they sped down the mountain. Half an hour later, they reached a small town and the driver s...
Brandon and Dawn bailed first. I kept looking up at the sky full of stars, feeling like they could see what I was thinking while Nash held me on his lap. Marcus and I were both picturing this scene with him in it. I no longer questioned life with him talking in my head—it was my normal now, my ex...
At first Nick didn’t hear it, and when he did, he was surprised that he could pull himself out of that dead-to-the-world state of bliss. He slid back from Cora and out of bed, resisting the urge to kiss her check. She needed a good night’s rest. “I’ll be right out,” he said to the door, finding h...
I did a double take on my way to my first class, and I still didn’t believe it. But it was her, speed walking across campus with her head down. I wanted so badly to call out and stop her, but the last time we saw each other I slammed the door and walked out without a word. I’d blamed her for my p...
She curled her eyelashes and applied mascara, then paused as she remembered Trent’s words. He said she’d changed. What did he call her, a free spirit? Now she wore tan slacks, nice but thick for the weather, and a V-neck knit top, a rich blue that enhanced the color of her dark hair and brown eye...
