I'm getting more selective in the books I choose to review. This one wasn't my usual choice, but something about it drew me to accept the review invitation. I'm glad I did. Tidewater Bride is a wonderful story that kept me captivated to the end. Tidewater Bride doesn't follow the typical romance formula. There's no…

The Love Letter – Book Review
Today is the perfect day to curl up on the couch with a good book, and if you're looking for a book to read, have I got a recommendation for you! The Love Note by Joanna Davidson Politano released this week. It's a historic novel set in 1860's England. It's a love story, but so…
The Librarian of Boone’s Hollow – Book Review
It's been awhile since I've done a book review, but when I got the offer to be a part of the launch team for The Librarian of Boone's Hollow, I knew I'd have to make time to read this book. As it turned out, I started reading and I couldn't put it down. Everything else…
Finding Lady Enderly – Book Review
Finding Lady Enderly is unlike any other book I've read. It feels like classic literature, like you're discovering a treasure that's been tucked away for all these years and just now discovered and released.
The Heart of a King – Book Review
Biblical fiction is a fairly new genre for me. For years, I avoided it because it just seemed weird to fictionalize the people from the Bible. Then I discovered Lois T. Henderson, and a whole new world opened up to me. I was still picky, though. I wanted to make sure that the author did…
Romancing the Bride – Book Review
Saturday I decided I would take a day of relaxation and read a book. I started reading Romancing the Bride in the morning and spent most of the day curled up in my bed glued to the story. I couldn't stop reading until late at night when I finally finished it. This is so uncharacteristic…
Wild Hope – Book Review
I met Meghan Weyerbacher last year when we did a Summer of '67 Message, Meal, and a Movie event at her church. I knew she was a blogger who blogged about writing, but at the time, she wasn't an author. She was just a super sweet woman encouraging other writers to succeed. A few months…
We Hope for Better Things – Book Review
From the moment I picked up We Hope for Better Things and started reading it, I knew it was something special. I was hooked from the very first page, and the more I read, the harder it was to put it down. We Hope for Better Things is the story of three women from different…
The Hope of Azure Springs – Book Review
In the midst of all our movie release craziness, it's so relaxing to be able to take a break and read a good book. The Hope of Azure Springs by Rachel Fordham was a great choice. I always enjoy books set in the late 1800's. At first glance, this one looks like a western romance,…
Up in Smoke – Book Review and Recommendation
This June I'll be teaching screenwriting at the Kentucky Christian Writer's Conference. As a result, I've had the pleasure of getting to know Hannah R. Conway, the faculty chairman of the conference. We were recently chatting, and she mentioned the need for more reviews. I quickly volunteered to review Up in Smoke, and I'm so…
