Choose Your Own Path, Outer Space by Paul Moxham 
Love the collection of mystery books for kids so much.
This one starts out with you choosing from two selections, the path you want to take.
Based on 1950's in England and you are to imagine you are on your way to get ice cream when a downpour starts so you take shelter in the trees....
Quite the imagination of things can occur, depending on your choice of action. Such a cool book for kids, boys and girls alike.
Definitely would take some time to try over til you get to the very end of the story.
Such a fun relaxing book.
Received this review copy from the author and this is my honest opinion.




 Home At Last by Coral Harper
Story focuses on Misty and her mother as they move frequently to new locations because her mother is down on her luck.
They room with her mother's girlfriends and families over the years. Misty is sad to have to keep leaving her friends from school, some without even saying goodbye to.
She focuses her life on getting ahead and stays longer in college and gets the degrees so when her grandmother passes away they head to the inn in NC.
She swears she will not ever leave and start over. She puts everything she knows into making a success of the inn.  She has some problems with the hot model of a man who is the only one who can do the renovations they need.
She wants nothing to do with him...
Cute short story.











A Soldier's Promise By Tory Richards
Starts out with Shannon and she's agreed to go to the inlaws for Thanksgiving and again for Christmas. There is plenty of room and all her husbands family and kids will be there.
Her husband was a solider and he died in Iraq fighting the war. She's left with a very young child who she loves.
She is given the room with an attached bathroom that she shares with the next bedroom. She has a great time with all the other women and kids, so much to do in the winter in Vermont.
Ryan who no one has seen since the dads' funeral even showed up. He's a Marine and was in the same ambush as David, her husband. Little does she know he will keep a promise he made to his brother.
She also has a secret of a promise she made to her husband before he left to fight the war. She learns more details about the night he died and about Ryan and his pain and medical issues.
Like how the family reacts to him being there but he takes off after Thanksgiving to visit his friend in Maine but returns for Christmas. She does get to talk to him about things that really matter.
Lots of sex scenes which I was not expecting.
