A Marriage in Middlebury by Anita Higman - Review

Disclosure: The following post contains some book advertisement. This book was provided in exchange for my review. One decision changed both their lives . . . but will love win in the end?  Charlotte Rose Hill enjoys a comfortable life serving up country delicacies, uniquely blended teas, and matchmaking advice for her quirky, devoted customers.

They both moved on . . . or so she thought. When Sam walks back into her life

UNSPOKEN by Dee Henderson - Review

The following book was  provided in exchange for my review. Post contains some advertisement. About the Book: Charlotte Graham is at the center of the most famous kidnapping in Chicago history. The task force of FBI and local cops found her two abductors, killed them, rescued her, but it took four very long years. The fact she was found less than three miles from her home, had been there the entire time, haunts them. She's changed her identity, found a profession she loves, and rebuilt her life. She's never said a word--to the cops to her doctors, to family--about those four years.

A GIRL'S Guide to Making Good Choices by Elizabeth George - Review

The following post contains some advertisement. I was blessed with this book in exchange for my review. Every girl is a beautiful creation, uniquely equipped by God to do His work in the world. But as girls are growing, changing, and making choices about the kinds of lives they will lead, they are bombarded with conflicting messages about what it means to be a woman. The media says one thing, boys say another, and friends seem obsessed with whatever is newest and coolest. As a result, girls too often hand their decisions over to those least qualified to make them.

The JESUS STORY by Dr William Marty - Review

I received this book in exchange for my honest review. The following post may contain advertisement links. Rediscover This Compelling Story   The story of Jesus is the most remarkable ever told. It's an exciting adventure, a tender love story, and a drama full of danger, betrayal, and the ultimate sacrifice. But sometimes the genealogies, the confusing repetition, and the varying order of events in the Gospels can distract readers from this powerful narrative. Or maybe you've heard the story so many times that it has lost its impact.

LOVE IS A ROSE by Pamela Thibodeaux - Review

Disclosure: This book was given to me in exchange for my review. The following post contains some advertisement. Music is the magical entry into the spirit world; the golden gate into the Kingdom of God. But we mustn’t be of the mindset that God only uses Christian music to reach out and touch our mind, heart and spirit. God uses any and every means available to speak to His children. Our job is to be open and receptive.

What Hurricane? Solar Powered History on a Supply Ship to Jamestown by Alana Terry - Review

The following post contains some advertisement. The author provided me with an e-book in exchange for my review. After Benson, O’Malley, and I returned from our trip to the Granada Relocation Center, Dad started working on the solar-powered history machine to make it better than ever. It took us awhile to decide where our next adventure would take us, but finally my brothers and I settled on exploring some family history from way back in the 1600s!

A SIMPLE CHRISTMAS WISH by Melody Carlson - Review

The following post contains some advertisement. One girl in need of a home. One woman in search of a home for her heart. One Christmas where it all seems possible. It felt strange to be out here in the middle of the night, still wearing the Amish dress--a dress that had belonged to Miri. Rachel's footsteps crunched in the snow, and halfway between the barn and the house, she paused to look up at the night sky, wondering if more snow was in store, but all she saw was velvety black and stars. Millions of twinkling stars. She had never seen stars like that before, so bright and so close, almost as if she could touch them with her hand. Rachel Milligan never imagined that she and her seven-year-old niece would spend the week before Christmas on a quaint Amish farm in Ohio. But with so many unexpected occurrences of late, perhaps she shouldn't have been surprised. With her young niece Holly in tow, Rachel anxiously makes her way from Chicago to Ohio's Amish country. As
