July 25 Book Review: The Package by Kimberley Troutte

 

 
The Package by Kimberley Troutte
Such an intriguing read. So much going on. Love military tactical movements for the sake of the package. Everybody is on board and the teams change from time to time. 
Love locations, descriptions and especially the new devices and how they work. They come in handy as the package is obtained and they must travel on the exclusive train to get to their destination. There is turmoil as her identity is suspected.  Her loss of memory really comes into play. At times she is not sure what is real and what is fake.  Can't wait to read more from this author.  There is another book in the works.
Received this review copy from the publishing company and this is my honest opinion.

Jul 23 Book Review: One Lucky Cowboy by Kristine Lynn

 
 
 
One Lucky Cowboy  by Kristine Lynn
The story follows Jackson, Jax who is helping the family by stepping in to help run it. . Story is also following Jill who has been called in to help others in the family to retain what they have and to make it a bigger better place than ever before. There are lots of twists and turns in this story that really make it oh a good read. There's also a part where A father is told he has a son and he had no idea. Love the part with grandfather has offered his house to when they want to visit. I love all the  Family like aunts and uncles that are there to help through the turmoils. Especially like the exploration and the little Baby Animals that are around.

Book Review: Maid of Dishonor by Nancy Robards Thompson

  


 

Maid of Dishonor by Nancy Robards Thompson
This story is about a mother who owns the wedding location, a daughter who helps run the events and her daughter who also helps in her  own way. 
The wedding for the debut of the new venue is scheduled. Anson and London and she's a blogger influencer. There is so much drama as the 10 bridesmaids have been dismissed. They are able to find another to step in but she is murdered. 
So many suspects and the women team together to help solve what really happened. They have to dig deep, even going back to the college years when they knew the new bridesmaid. Bribes, stock trading, restraining orders and so much more make this a really good read. First time reading this author and can't wait to read more of her works.
Received this review copy from the publishing company and this is my honest opinion.

Book Review: An Irresistible Temptation by Elsa Winckler

  



An Irresistible Temptation by Elsa Winckler
Story starts out  with Dana and her best friend is getting married and she's in the wedding party.
She has been thrown together with David a lot and she really connects with his body. She's ready to be done with the wedding and is again going on David's private plane.
Wedding destination sounds like a really expensive worthwhile trip of a lifetime. Adult situations and a shorter story than most.
Like the descriptions a lot, and can't wait to read more from the author. 

Book Review: Forgiving Her First Love by Dani Collins

 



Forgiving Her First Love by Dani Collins
This story starts out with Logan who has come back to the island his family lives on where they earn money with a hotel and marina off the coast of Canada.
Story also follows Sophia and her son who their live with gramps.
Logan had left the island and broke Sophias’ heart because she was not asked to go.
 What I like about this story is the fact that there are many ages starting from the very young to the very old and everything in between all their struggles and solutions to their problems.
Adult situations, very entertaining read.  Love hearing about their careers and how they are done.

Book Review: The Resistance Girls Revisited: A Reunion of Courage and Bond (A Resistance Girl Novel Book 8)

  


  
The Resistance Girls Revisited by Hannah Bryon
Sat here while reading this final book of the series and I have tears in my eyes, at the corners.  Yes I'm sad the book series will be ending with this one and want to stretch it out til the end.   Happy tears because a new series will start after this book.
Author knocked this one OUT of the park in my opinion. It is so much more than I ever thought about. So many secrets are revealed.
Love layout of the chapters and events. Love the descriptions as I can see myself at them and they are all such brilliant sights to view and partake. The food events are so detailed, I can't even imagine what the food tastes like. Extravagance of it all is amazing. 
Love how the author takes all the girls and their relatives, husbands, kids and parents into account in this story and brings them all together to explain why she was so harsh to them at the finishing school. Love tribute to all those involved, past and present.
Love hearing how the women have advanced their endeavors for the good of others and how they are succeeding. Love all the character in depth explanations at the end and which contain a glimpse of the author herself.
This whole series is a treasure and so entertaining, I learned so much.
New series because of who it is written by will be better than this one as the author has grown over the years and knows how to write her stories for us to enjoy.
Here's to many more!
 

Book Review: A Slice of Summer by Melissa McClone

  


 
A Slice of Summer by Melissa McClone
This store starts out with  Taryn and she runs the family bakery and has for many as her parents are retiring. They might sell the whole establishment. She wants it as she loves what she does. I love hearing of the different combination of treats she can make.
Story also follows Garrett and he's returning to the town for his sister's wedding. He is a lawyer and lives in LA. They had dated once several months ago but he never returned her calls.
He is rather shunned when he does show up to pick up where they left off. Problem is he has a legit reason but he's not made it that far for her to even listen.
They do get together and he helps her with her stand at the local fair. There are twists and turns and her father wants to sell to Nick who runs the other bakery and business has dropped at her location.
Garrett figures  out things don't add up with some of the help she has at the shop. After talking to the young man they find out who the culprit is.
Like hearing of the display, so unique. Love how this all plays out, opportunities knock loudly
