From this Day Forward by Lauraine Snelling

      A great end to a great series.  I love this set of books by Lauraine Snelling and love how she takes characters from her other series and expands on them because I love the town of Blessing and seeing how it has grown over time.  I enjoy seeing how the characters evolve and grow up.  I also love seeing how the town grows and how the new people are welcomed and work at fitting in.  I enjoyed seeing the interaction between Deborah and Toby and how they work at deciding what is the best for them both.  While I am sad this series is ending, I hope to see more of Blessing in a new series.      I received a copy of the book from the publisher.  The review is my own.

Wild Montana Skies (Montana Rescue) by Susan May Warren

   I stories about those who risk their lives to help others intriguing and this start to a new series did not disappoint.  Kacey Fairing is home for a short time in Mercy Falls while there she has to team up with Ben King who is running Peak Rescue for his father.  They are forced to put aside their differences to work together when an emergency faces the town.      I liked seeing how they were able to put aside what was troubling them and work together to do what they were trained to do.  I look forward to seeing more in this series      I received a copy of the story from the publisher, the review is my own.

Another Day, Another Dali (Serena Jones Mysteries) by Sandra Orchard

     Another page turner by Sandra Orchard.  I liked seeing how Serena's mind worked as she was helping to figure out who was replacing the real thing with a forgery.  As Serena investigated, she she did not always like the direction that the facts were taking her, but she continued on.  I liked guessing what would happen and was delighted when I guessed right and intrigued when I didn't.  A great read.      I received a copy from the publisher, the review is my own.

Where Two Hearts Meet: A Novel (Prince Edward Island Dreams) by Liz Johnson

    This is the second book in the Prince Edward Island Dreams series and after reading it was glad to see there would be another one.  The book tells the story of Caden and Adam.  Caden is a chef at the Red Door Inn and loves her job.  When she is asked to show a visiting journalist around, it is not in her comfort zone, but she agrees to do it.  I enjoyed the interaction between the charters and how Caden responds as she realizes that Adam is not quite who she thought he was.  I liked how thing worked as the book progressed.      I received a copy of the book from the publisher, the review is my own.

The Angel of Forest Hill: An Amish Christmas Romance by Cindy Woodsmall

     A lovely story of hope and love.  Rose agrees to help Joel Dienner with his home and family.  This means leaving her family and traveling to a new place.  She hopes this will give her a chance to start over as well and give her a family to love and to be loved as well.  She knows what she is getting into, but hopes over time it can become something more      I liked seeing the charters evolve and how some of the hurt was changed and how they allowed the changes to take place over time.       "I received this  book  from  Blogging   for   Books   for  this review."

Putting on the Witch (Retired Witches Mysteries) by Joyce Lavene and Jim Lavene

    This is the third book in the series, but the first one that I have read.  I really enjoyed the writing and the characters were enjoyable.  I enjoyed their enthusiasm is getting a chance to go to the ball (who doesn't like dressing up). and of course a murder occurs.  The coven works together to find out who is responsible and I enjoyed seeing the way they thought things out to solve the mystery.  An enjoyable book that I would highly recommend.

Love's Faithful Promise by Susan Anne Mason

   I enjoyed this story of hope and perseverance.  I liked how Deidre is making a difference by trying to make her way into a field that women didn't always have a chance in.  I liked how Dr. Matthew Clayborne learns to take a different look at things that he isn't sure about when he realizes that is it making a difference.      Deirdre comes home to help care for her mother after she has a stroke.  While there she butts heads with Dr. Matthew Clayborne when she wants to participate in her mother's care.   He has agreed to come and care for Deidre's mother in exchange for being able to stay at her home of Irish Meadows while his daughter recovers from an illness.      I received a copy of the book from the author publisher.  The review is voluntary.
