I enjoyed reading this book and getting using the pictures to come up with ideas for window box arrangements.  It was very informative and the step by step directions were very helpful.  It gave advice on what plants to pair together and had helpful pictures for many of the steps.  More Info Author Bio "I received this book from  Blogging for Books  for this review."

The Sea before Us by Sarah Sundin

     I loved learning history through historical fiction.  This book gave me an opportunity to to see a woman's part in the war as part of the story focused on Dorothy's service of putting together reconnaissance photographs to create a map of Normandy.  I was interesting to see how the technology of the time period allowed them to put something like this together.  I also enjoyed seeing how the relationship between Dorothy and Wyatt progressed as they worked together to provide what was needed leading up to D-Day.      I received a copy of the book from the publisher, the review is my own,

High Treason by Diann Mills

     High Treason is a book that will keep you reading.  FBI Special Agent Kord Davidson and CIA operative Monica Alden find themselves tasked with protecting Saudi Prince Omar bin Talal.  This becomes more complicated when they find out that the prince is not just there for him mother's cancer treatment, but also to negotiate some some stronger business ties between the US and his country.       I really enjoyed reading this book and liked seeing the interaction between the main characters.  They had to learn to get over each other's role in the protective detail and learn to work together.  I liked seeing how they worked out their differences as well as trying to figure out who the bad guy was and what the motive was.      I received a copy of the book from the publisher, the review is my own.

Storm Surge by Christy Barritt

    Cassidy is still trying to stay under the radar as she awaits to testify, but as a mysterious raft shows up, she can't help but to get involved. I think I too would find it hard to keep silent if I were in Cassidy's shoes and it would be my luck that the more under the radar I tried to be, the more things would happen to draw the spotlight on me.   Loved the book and look forward to the next one.       I received a copy of the book from the author, the review is my own.

Apple Strudel Alibi by H Y Hanna

    I liked seeing Gemma and the Old Biddies take on a mystery away from home.  It seems like Gemma can't even get a break from sleuthing even when she his on holiday.  She and the Old Biddies run across a suspicious death in the hotel they are staying in and soon find themselves trying to figure out what exactly happened.  I also enjoyed " seeing" some of the sites that they visited and would love to see the dancing horses someday myself.      I received a copy of the book from the author, the review is entirely my own.

Death by a Whisker by T. C. LoTempio

   I really enjoyed this book in the A Cat Rescue series.  It was fun to see the interaction between Sydney and Toby and how they went about proving Maggie innocent in the death of Ulla.  It is amazing how Toby is able to help out and point Sydney in the right direction.  Got to love a good mystery with a cat.      I received a copy of the book from the publisher, the review is my own.
