Hear the Falling Snow by Storm Shultz
Hear the Falling Snow is a cozy contemporary romance full of heart and hope in the midst of waiting. I really enjoyed meeting this cast of characters and seeing God’s hand in their lives, but I was also disappointed in a few aspects. Here’s the Goodreads blurb: Accepting God’s timing has never been so hard.…

Deadly Revenge by Patricia Bradley (#3)
I forgot I had read book 2 in this series until I picked up Deadly Revenge last week. Unfortunately, I much prefer Fatal Witness, for its characters if nothing else. Ratings for Deadly Revenge Story: 4/5 Worldview: 3/5 The story had a really interesting premise, with a great start in the first few chapters. The…

Hope Like Wildflowers by Pepper Basham
I have to say I really love Pepper Basham’s historical fiction novels, and Hope Like Wildflowers is one of my favorites! It’s full of heart and hope, showing how God can redeem anyone’s past for good. Here’s the blurb from Goodreads for a few more details: Return to the mountains of 1910s Appalachia with beloved…

Virginia by Shannon McNear (Daughters of the Lost Colony)
When I saw this book announced, I jumped on the chance at reading Virginia. Ever since I read Rebecca last year, I loved Shannon McNear’s clear gospel message in this vibrant historical fiction series. While Rebecca does not spoil books 1 and 2 in the series, if you want to read Virginia, you might want…

The Shattered Ones by Brigitte Cromey (Aftermath #1)
It’s been a hot minute since I’ve read a sci-fi/dystopian book, and The Shattered Ones was the perfect reintroduction. Even though we’re looking at the aftermath of a great battle that ravaged Earth, the heart and soul of this book is so encouraging. I typically stay away from dystopian because it tends to make me…

Once Upon an Apple by Gabrielle Land
I had the pleasure of receiving an early copy of this book, and it was an overall pleasant read. 🙂 I have a soft spot for fairytale retellings, especially with cute animals! Once Upon an Apple is a cozy, sweet retelling with modern slang that makes for an interesting twist! Ratings for Once Upon an Apple…

Waves of Redemption by S.L. Klein
This book, Waves of Redemption by S.L. Klein, will steal your breath away. Absolutely stunning. It’s a tale of pirates and romance and saving the lost while you don’t even know how to save yourself—and that doesn’t even scratch the surface! I got a free copy of this book and all opinions are my own.…

Cold Case Tracker by Maggie Black
I read Cold Case Tracker in one day, so I think that speaks to how great of a read it was! Amy and Jackson (and the lovable K-9 doggo Hudson) were great to follow as they tried to solve a very personal missing person case. For a quick introduction, here’s the Goodreads blurb: A missing…

The Songbird of Hope Hill by Kim Vogel Sawyer
Absolutely stunning. Kim Vogel Sawyer has already been a favorite author of mine but The Songbird of Hope Hill is now my absolute favorite book. I’ve never read a more beautiful depiction of the gospel, salvation, redemption, and forgiveness. We even get religious people coming to grips with their hypocrisy. If you haven’t heard of…
