Timeless Treasure by Mary Lu Tyndall

      I loved the mystery surrounding the letters and coin that Lexie's mom left her.  She travels to the coast to find out more about the mystery and teams up with a professor who knows more about the time period and helps her to find out more about the people and places represented in the letters.  As they continue their search it soon becomes evident that her ancestors really lived an interesting live so interesting in fact that someone does not want them to figure out the puzzle of the letters.   A real page turner that will leave you wanting to find out what happens next before you put the book down.      I received a copy to read, the review is mine. 

The Escape by Lisa Harris

 When Madison and Jonas wake up from a plane crash, they find that one of the prisoners they were transporting is dead and the other is missing.  They must find their way out of the Forest they crashed in  to find the escaped prisoner and to save their own lives as well.  This book really kept you guessing what was going happen next and what the Marshals would run into next as they pursued the murderer.      I received a copy of the book, the review is mine.

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.
