MY REVIEW:

This story took my breath away so many times! Lots of twists, danger, and action around every corner and in every chapter. I didn’t know who was on Hunter and Marlee’s side and who were against them.

Hunter and Marlee are reunited after a traumatic death pushed them apart. Now they are working together to solve a murder and find a missing girl. The characters (and dogs!) were so good, and the story line kept me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. I also liked how Hunter was not afraid to share his belief in God and how God forgave him for his past sins and helped him become a better man.

Highly recommend this book if you like fast paced, clean Christian suspense. I absolutely loved it! I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions and views expressed are my own.

MY REVIEW: 

This story and series were absolutely delightful and definitely one that I would read again! I really enjoyed reading each book in the Foxtail Farm series and getting to know the characters and town.

I loved all of the characters, especially the main characters in this one: rancher Thatcher, Bliss and her adopted daughter Juniper. I also loved reading about Juniper’s service dog Coco who helps alert her before an epilepsy episode.

Even though they all had their struggles, they continued to come together again and again as friends and family to support and help each other. This was the perfect Easter story about family, love, and how God’s love and grace is extended to all of us. This feel-good story had an engaging plot that kept me smiling from chapter to chapter.  I absolutely loved it!

My Review: 

This sweet heartwarming story is book 2 in the Golden, Georgia romance series. they can be read as standalone books.

Single mom Addie and her son Jacob are adjusting to the death of their husband/father and move back to her hometown to be near family. Addie’s late husband’s best friend Nolan comes to visit them after a baseball injury puts him on the sidelines.

Addie and Nolan‘s friendship continues to grow as they work together to open a local fitness center and help Jacobs baseball team.

As a single mom, fitness, instructor, and sports mom; I could definitely relate to Addie’s life, financial struggles etc. The characters were interesting and fun and I enjoyed reading this story from beginning to end.

Nolan has to decide what he’s going to do with his future and baseball. And Addie has to decide if she wants to take a chance at love again or if they should just stay friends.

Great storyline about family, second chances and love. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions and views expressed are my own.

MY REVIEW:

I liked reading this heartwarming story in Three Springs Texas Vet Clinic. The storyline and characters were relatable and interesting.

Hank and his son Henry return to Three Springs Texas to reconnect with his family after the loss of his wife. Hank and his son have a love for animals and work at the veterinary clinic. There he meets rodeo cowgirl and veterinarian Gwen. They have a lot in common with their love for family and animals. Henry was such a delight to get to know, as well as Hank’s family in this story.

I did not like the constant inner dialogue of the main characters (in italics) throughout the book though. I found it too distracting and not really helpful to the storyline.

Overall, I really enjoyed the book and would love to read another one set in Three Springs Texas.
