Montana Cowboy Daddy by Jane Porter
This story starts out with Erika, a student working on her PhD degree. She gets a call and rushes to her cousins in Las Vegas. She finds her cousin is dead from a car crash and her son is in the car seat, unharmed.
She had NO idea that April had a son and is there to tend to the services and to her son Beck.
She looks through photo albums to maybe find a clue as to who the father could be and thinks she has an idea. His name is listed on the birth certificate.
Billy Wyatt. The Wyatt boys are in rodeos, heavily and some run the ranch. Erika finds him at the rodeo events but he's always with another female so she decides to just drive to the family ranch there and confront him.
He has no idea why the woman is there in the kitchen but learns soon enough. They get to spend time together and wait for the test to come back. His mother knows he's a Wyatt form the head and lack of hair.
The test does come back and Erika has agreed to be a nanny while he's on the road, In his free time he can help watch the baby while she works on her papers. He gets injured in the event, hospitalized, surgeries etc.
He is brought to his own cabin in Utah where he recovers with help from Erika and a few neighbor. Love the time they spend at Bryce and just simple things like walks in the wood, discovering new things.
Love how he teaches her to cook while she tends to them both. She knows she has to leave and let him take care of the baby. He has to tell her how he really feels about her and soon or she will leave...
Love the caring, travel, family togetherness, all about rodeos, her field of work, learning to cook, hiking, nature, romance, and learning new words.
Love the play by play scenes, I can just picture them in my mind. Such a realistic story.
A KEEPER!

MY REVIEW:
The Extractor Jack Storm #1 by Ethan Jones
Love this type of book because I can picture the scenes in my mind as if I am there.
Not only are the scenes described in detail but there are also things like the smells which is a sense I use a lot being blind. Would love this as a movie series!
So many action packed events that take place.
Story starts when Jack was on vacation with his family but the bad guys have found them so he sends his wife and child away and he continues with a mission to get rid of them once and for all.
He gets a call that their plane went down.... He brings himself back after he's sold the house and everything that mattered to track down where his family is, to no avail.
He returns to the agency he worked for and proceeds to extract one of theirs that is in harms way. Just when you think he will follow directions he has his own mind and uses it, shocks others on the way out the door....
Adventure, bit of romance, travel locations, weapons and tactics and strategic moves are discussed and so much more.
Love the call he gets while having dinner about the plane wreckage that was found....
Couldn't put this book down. Ends with a glimpse of the next book in the series..
Received this review copy from the author and this is my honest opinion.

Elle hopes to get her in the racing car and Jacques hopes to converse more with her about the authors' they have in common.
Agnes is very naive and not comfortable with some things that occur and very late at night when Elle comes to her bed she misunderstands ....
Found the descriptions in this book very Victorian and so many words I had to look up as I never read this time period before. Very interesting and could follow what was going on.
Especially love the descriptions of the clothing, so detailed.
Sneak peek at the next book in the series, a chapter when Agnes has become a doctor with her friend Kat.

Locus of control is also another important chapter and I also love hearing about game day jitters and how to overcome them.
This chapter also gives you activities so you can select an option and answers are listed in the appendix at the back of the book.
Chapters talk about so many more aspects of the mental part of the game that I find it useful in other parts of our regular lives.
There are so many sketches and charts throughout the book that I think really depicts what they author is saying by showing. There are also many examples of soccer players and their experience with a problem and how they overcame it.
There are also helpful tips for the different positions of middle fielders, Forwards, defenders, goalkeepers, also tips for parents and coaches to emphasize things that will be a positive role. Love the chart showing who capitalizes on the ground conditions the most.

Compared to other world soccer players, how they eat and why. I can relate to eating more on days i have chores to do, lots of physical manual labor vs one where I am just doing small chores.
Like comparison of sports drinks vs. water. We'd take water every time. Nutritional label really matters to me and almost 8 years since my spouse had a heart attack it shows you in serving size and what and how much of everything you should be intaking.
All the bad processed parts of food are also discussed and why they are a bad idea.
General nutrition is a really good topic and why you should eat your meals in a certain order. Never thought about it but I like vegetables first as they are usually hot and won't stay warm for very long.
Examples of the authors days: inactive and active and what portions he will intake.

Excellent example of the newer nutritional labels and what they really tell you about what's really inside the food in the package and how much you really should be eating of it-serving size.
Love this book for the experimentation the author tells you to try. Love it myself as we try all the spices and combinations in our pantry. Oils are most helpful when you really don't know exactly what kind of oil to get.

A Homecoming To Cherish by Josie Riviera
This story starts out with Nora and she's just arrived at the Inn where her daughter Samantha and her will be living for months to run the Inn while the owner recuperates.
We learn a lot about Nora and Samantha and their thoughts on a lot of different subjects. The one I am interested in are the ones about God. Nora has lost all hope to reaching out to God.
She meets Julian at the Inn while waitressing and doing other jobs. They form a friendship and we learn about how his past has brought him to rely on God.
Like hearing the scriptures verses throughout. Nora feels she's getting too close and God hasn't answered her yet and she wants to leave to head back to VA and her job.
Sam has started to make friends and is cheerful again about life and learning about God from others.
It's a wonder they don't split and leave the Inn with those running it.....
Enjoyed the read because it's about a woman over 30 and she has raised her daughter by herself.
Book starts out with bringing us up to date about the last mission the family went on.
They are summoned from the president-he wants them to go to Buckingham Palace and find out about turmoil there.
Love that the book follows them on their trip while also following the bad guys in England and Spain. You are also able to understand their plans.
There is so much fighting from all over the world and they explain how they fought back. Love the details and strategy.
Who would've thought a spy was amidst them, hope they catch him in time before they need the US troops again to finish the battles.
So very well detailed with descriptions. Love hearing how it all came together and can't wait for the next episode of the Mystery Quad.
Received a review copy from the author and this is my honest opinion.
