I could mention all nine stories individually, but I particularly connected with the heroine in the first story, Perfect for the Preacher. The author presented Sophie's struggle, transformation, and acceptance in such a real and enjoyable way.
Romantic, fun, well written. This collection won't disappoint!...more

Joy has sculpted a contemporary romance with a light heart, but this book packs so much more—a spiritual message that resonates with us all—trusting God’s will.
The author has a writing style which reads fresh and fun. By the time I was finished with this story, I felt like Izze and Miles were old friends. Izze particularly, with such witty humor all her own, which was only enhanced by her honest reflections and raw feelings. I found myself cheering for these two crazy kids to find a happy ending, but I won’t ruin it for you.
If you need a quick read, filled with amusing romance, check out Joy Palmer’s debut work. You won’t be disappointed. ...more
Dawn Crandall’s fourth book in the Everstone Chronicles may just be her best yet, and considering how much I loved the other three, that is no small aDawn Crandall’s fourth book in the Everstone Chronicles may just be her best yet, and considering how much I loved the other three, that is no small accomplishment!
Dawn’s books have stood out to me since the first time I picked up her debut novel, The Hesitant Heiress. Not only is she a gifted writer, but a superb storyteller…and her heroes...sigh. Her books are different—and I mean good different. In a sea of third person novels, Dawn uses first person brilliantly to craft memorable characters, particularly strong heroines that I want to read again and again. I just can’t get them out of my mind.
And her latest novel, The Cautious Maiden is exceptionally unique. We all love a dashing rogue. But with the type of twist Dawn does so well, she takes the classic story of redemption off stage, giving God the glory, not the heroine, and allows us, the readers, the chance to learn to trust Vance along with Violet as the story unfolds. And if you’ve read The Bound Heart as I have, you won’t be too keen on believing Vance Everstone on page one, setting up a beautifully written story of trust, forgiveness, and transformation.
The romance sizzles. The story holds you glued to the page. The characters are unforgettable. I can’t recommend this book enough. Can’t wait to see what Dawn writes next.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher. All thoughts are entirely my own. ...more
