Book

Embers of Love (2010)

I don't usually read books like this. My friend recommended it to me and then bought me the book so I felt like I had to read it. The first 4 chapters were good, but then it got boring.

A Dream to Call My Own (2009)

What a wonderful way to close out the series. I only wish that real life could be so happy. Although, I don't believe these characters "lived happily ever after". These stories moved along quite well, and I really grew to love them myself. I cried, laughed, and got excited right along side th...

Book

Morning's Refrain (2010)

I really wanted to like this more than I did, and I have no good reason why I didn't. Perhaps because as far as Christian romance goes, it was just so . . . flat. Even characters I was interested in from the first book couldn't hold my attention (partly because they get so little screen time). ...

Forgiveness is a big theme. Life is not a...
