Bratva Connection Maxim by Becky Wilde
So many thing I like about this story. Starts out with Kara and her friend that are at the shop. A commotion and there are guns. After that Kara returns from the hospital to her apartment and find it trashed so Maxim takes her back to his house. He also has gotten the cafe fixed, her apartment he got all new furniture, clothes, everything.
She's not happy about not being able to go to work nor leave. She attempts many times to escape, she feels like she’s a prisoner, she has no idea just how much danger she is in.
Maxim is beside himself. He's part of the mafia and his cousin is her good friend. There are hot steamy adult scenes as the plot goes on-who wants her killed...
Very descriptive scenes and details, it’s like watching a movie!
Love that this is a series and can't wait to read the rest.
Received this review copy from the publisher and this is my honest opinion.
The Liars by Joanne DeMaio
What I like abou tthis story is that all the characters are lying, to either themselves or others. Yes they are white lies, some of them. A lot of going forward is happening as life goes on. There are tragedies and happy moments and breaking up but getting together also. Everybody is moving in their own direction and sometimes they all come together. That's the best part for me, the food! Aire and smells of the ocean are there always, calming you.
Love the scenes that are described so well, the events taking place and what everyone is up to. Love following how they've moved on during the saga from the very first book.
Can't wait to read another.
Up-Island Harbor by Jean Stone
Starts with Maddie and she's going to Martha's Vineyard, where her grandmother lived. She lives with her son Rafe and her father in western MA.
When she arrives she meets neighbors who all knew her grandmother and some even knew her mother. Maddie recalls going there as a young girl and never understood why she never returned. Her father told her the grandmother had died. So she is quite taken aback when the letter from the lawyer informs her that Nancy just died Lisa, a neighbor tells her how she found her.
Love the discussion about the three sisters when it comes to planting as I've tried that method in my own garden. It's a New England kind of thing, I think.
Love the interjections about the local Indian tribe and all the shocking things she learns about it all. She becomes concerned when she breaks an ankle falling down a sand dune. then the fire. Love how she goes through the grandmothers items and what she treasures about them all. So many loose ends.
So many scary moments and the story wraps up at the end with so many pieces in the puzzle for you to finish solving the mysteries. Great story.
Received this review copy from Kensington Books via NetGalley and this is my honest opinion.

Sunset at Embthwaite Farm by Kate Hewitt
Love this story because it surround many generations and ages of characters.
Anna has been summoned to the family house. She had just left one day leaving the two girls and her husband Peter. He's dying and soon. She thought she'd go to help out but the daughters are not very welcoming nor her ex. They've not seen or heard from her in 14 years. She visits with a neighbor and is very comforted as to what she needs to tell the girls. They do form a bond after many discussions and she is able to help them out more. There are secrets and mysteries that come to light along the way.
She travels back to her house to get a few things and meets James. Love how they interact as both are singles now.
This is first I've read of this series and learn enough about the past to make it an enjoyable read. Lots of travel, love, grief and how to survive it, helping others and having fun, twists and turns.

Biography of A Friendship by Marie-Claude Arnott
Love that this memoir is realistic, the subjects go deep and long.
Marie's friend Juliette has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She lives in France and Marie visits her often, even at the end when she is there for months. She visits Juliette every day and also spends time with her ageing parents in France. Love how Juliette has found Switzerland will take her in, to return her back to France at the end. So many rules overseas and things are complicated for a US citizen.
She is able to connect with Juliette’ daughter Corinne and she brings them together.
Love the hard parts of this book- parts go back in time to help you understand about their lives throughout the story..
Especially like how the women met and their earlier years and especially the travel.
So much information about the cancer and how to get early detection, warning signs and genetic testing. Rates of survival are rising.
Reminiscing with photos at the end and hues of colors and fashion styles I can relate to.
Heartbreaking, being strong, loving, caring, tragic, a story that will stay with you when you tally up your hundreds of other books in late December.
A KEEPER!

The Slide Into Ruin by Bronwyn Stuart
Story starts out with Darius and he's arrived back home. Others think he died on the ship, in the water or another way but he survived to prove to his father he could make something of himself. He approaches the house and stumbles onto a woman who's on the snowy ground. She was trying to get the children a tree for the holiday. Her father is nowhere to be found and he hopes to get paid for taking over the debt. So desolate and no food Eliza starves herself so the children can stay nourished.
He soon learns the truth and comes up with a scheme so he can be the hero. She conspires with him so she won't have to wed the guardian her father had picked out for them. So many mysteries and scenes that are torturous to read about. When the guardian finally comes she has to leave with him because of the mistrust she has for Dariou. Eliza leaves but is banished away. Darius learns of the fires on the docks and you wonder with all the gunpowder if he will ever find her, in time or dead already....
They shared many nights in love with one another and hot adult scenes. Love that she took care of all her siblings through it all while those her father owed money to are at their door. Great read.
Excerpt for the next story is also included at the end.

Next Door Knight by Nicole Flockton
This is a story that I treasure reading. It starts out with Kerry and she's had her father move in as he's wheel chair ridden now til his legs heal. She has to find care for him when she's working... she had nurses lined up but they don't show up.
Man next door who has PTS, Caleb is just thinking of retiring from the minilitary as he has enough time in and just not in his right mind to serve after having lost his dog in the battle. He has options on the table and he
will look into them. A little puppy shows up on his doorstep and he figures out the animal belongs to the woman next door. She can't figure out how the dog is getting to his side of the fence...
She is intrigued by the man and he agrees to stay with her father. They do get to spend together, hot adult scene and dinners together. She has to keep relying on Caleb and the dog is a therapy dog. She also donates her time at the VA helping others with her therapy dog.
Love how she manages the restaurant. Problems arise when the ex-boyfriend wants $30k from when she stayed at his house, NOT married over the years. Caleb tries to intervene...
Love how this ends and all the other help from tips for PTS.
Great read. Love this series, but can be read as stand alone.

Use of thrift stores for decorating the house are profitable for you especially if you can make a new cover for a cushion.
Like electric savings and how to make it possible.
I use window quilts that we made to help keep the hot air and humidity out of the house during wicked hot sunny days. bottom section fo the window where screen is allows air to circulate.
We even safe money when traveling, bringing out own lunches and fruits for 2 day trip, soup to heat up at the hotel for dinner rather than spending $50 for dinner out.
Good reference book to keep handy.

We have been to several and I wish I had this book before we had gone, pretty sure we missed some things i would've wanted to see for myself. We still have a few years left to go travel. A newer version is now available: 63 national parks. guess we've added some recently.

Essential Knit Sweaters Patterns for Every Sweater You Ever Wanted to Wear Every Day by Frauke Ludwig
This book is fantastic, so many ideas and different ways to put sweaters together. There are so many chapters about the basics, even stitches and how to make them, along with tips and tricks with specific instructions for particular necklines, sleeve construction, etc that are included in the book.
Each sweater has a title that starts the pattern of. includes sizes, chest circumSize, sleeve garment length, construction notes, special stitches used, tools and selvedge stitches and gauge.
pictures are shown and starting notes are included.
there are NO charted patterns in this book. written out row by row instructions.
What I like especially are that parts of the sweater have dark background with white lettering that make it stick out so much more for me.
There are so many different patterns, from top down to bottom down, yoke style, etc. Quite the selection and variety. Love flare and drape!
A KEEPER for the simplicity of the patterns, not hard and for experts and beginners alike.
Received this review copy from Globe Pequot, Stackpole Books via NetGalley and this is my honest opinion
