About the Book:
While visiting Mr. Whittaker at Whit’s Soda Shoppe, Beth and Patrick find a mysterious letter in the Imagination Station requesting a Viking sunstone. The letter is old and says that someone named Albert will be imprisoned if the sunstone isn’t found. Mr. Whittaker sends cousins Patrick and Beth to Greenland circa 1000. On their quest for the sunstone, the cousins meet Vikings Erik the Red and Leif Eriksson―and find the sunstone as they join Leif on his first voyage to North America. But the adventure is just beginning, for when they return to Mr. Whittaker’s workshop with the sunstone, there is another note waiting for them, requesting a silver goblet.
Join Patrick and Beth as they continue their travel to various lands and time in the Imagination Station book series.

“Rescued Hearts” by Hope Toler Dougherty

“Rescued Hearts” is a Contemporary Christian Suspense Romance. I enjoyed this story although I felt the writing style could have been better. Sometimes it was confusing because the author would switch from Mary talking, Mary talking to herself in her head, and then another person talking-it just made it awkward reading sometimes.

Overall though the story kept my interest, had a steady pace, and was a good drama with some romance. I really liked both characters Mary and Brett and how they got along with eachother and worked well together.

I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

Her personal safety isn’t the only thing in jeopardy-so is her heart. In Hope Toler Dougherty’s new novel, Rescued Hearts, children’s clothing designer Mary Wade Kimball’s soft spot for animals leads to a hostage situation when she spots a briar-entangled kitten in front of an abandoned house. Discovering the kidnapped woman ratchets the complications for undercover agent Brett Davis. Brett forsakes his three-month mission and helps her escape, the bent-on-revenge brutes following behind . . . and then Mary Wade’s safety is threatened once more.
