The Love Note by Joanna Davidson Politano

      This is such a great mystery and love story.  Willa sets out to find out more about a love letter she found and in the process finds out much about the people involved.  She also gets to know the occupants of Crestwicke Manor where she went to find out more about the letter.  It is interesting to see how she went about finding the information with the resources that she had access to at the time.

Nothing Short of Wondrous by Regina Scott

     I enjoy stories set in the past as it gives me a glimpse into how people lived in a story formation.  I have been to Yellowstone so I can see how Kate would love her land and want it to be protected.  She finds herself showing her beloved land to Lieutenant Prescott as he must track down those who do not respect the land.  He needs a guide and she has the ability to do just that.  Along the way they get to know each other and grow closer to the land and each other.      I received a copy to read, the review is mine.

The Key to Love by Betsy St. Amant

    This was a fun read as Bri has her own ideas about love and has found an interesting way to incorporate it into her store.  I think her store would be neat to visit and it sounds like a great place to eat and take in  the atmosphere.   When her store and its locks have an opportunity to be featured in a magazine, Bri finds herself falling for the writer of her story.  The only catch is , is that she isn't what she expected for her turn at love.      I received a copy to read, the review is mine.
