The Peacemaker by Wanda E. Brunstetter (A Mifflin County Mystery Book 2 of 3)


 Her best friend suddenly disappears.  Her boyfriend Ephraim is thought to be a suspect by some of the townspeople.  It is a clean novel and a cozy mystery.  The characters are very likeable and I enjoyed reading about Ada and Ephraim as they become closer.  She likes him and doesn't know where their relationship is headed because of this disappearance.  Will his feelings be reciprocated or is his mind and heart still with his missing girlfriend?  It's a good book and I enjoy this author's books and try to read them all.  

I received an arc copy of this book from the publisher.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Murder On The Neches by Bruce Hammack (A Fen Maguire Mystery Book 8)


I have enjoyed Bruce Hammack's mystery/who dun it books very much.  They are clean mysteries and very entertaining to read.  I have enjoyed the characters in this series and the interesting cast of characters has kept me reading each one of these books. Fen Maguire, former sheriff, has another case to solve but he has had a serious injury and he just keeps on keepin' on!  There are twists and there are turns which will keep you wondering if you know how the culprit is.  It kept my attention, and I hated when I had to stop reading to do "other" things.  You will enjoy this book and the rest of the series for sure!

Amish Home Remedy for the Heart by Debra Torres


This book was really well written!  It was a very heart wrenching story.  It wasn't your perfect Amish family as sometimes we envision.  It was a troubled husband and father who felt trapped in his Amish situation.  And so he just left his wife and children to "jump the fence".  Poor Leanna must now find her way through the hardship and hurt.  It's a story of love, pain, forgiveness and trials.  It's a heartwarming Christian story that will make you think and wonder how things will go for this family and if God will guide them in the way that they should go.  I loved it.  Never a dull moment in this book.  It was so good.  I am sure everyone will really love this story!

I received and ARC copy of this book for free. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

The Sergeant and the Girl Next Door by Laura Rupper


This is the first book that I have read from this author.  It is a sweet romance that takes place after WWII.  Davis Wilson has returned from the War and Faith, his long time friend. has lost her brother and her father. He wants to make sure they are cared for and isn't too happy about her choices of a dance partner.  He finds ways to make sure that Freddy, the dance partner, doesn't get too close.  This was a really sweet story and an enjoyable one to read.  The character development was well done and I would recommend the story to others.  This was a book that was gifted to a family member.

Hostage Security by Lisa Childs (Bachelor Bodyguards Book 14)

 

This was a captivating book for me as I love a good suspense.  As Josh takes on a new position as a security specialist, he is in for some real surprises!  He has a son that he never knew anything about.  And that son has just been kidnapped.  There are no dull moments in this Romantic Suspense. There is lots of action as Josh does whatever is needed to find his son.  Natalie, the mother of his son and Josh have been apart for many years and she is not sure how she feels about this.  I am sure if you like suspense, this one will keep you on the edge of your chair.

Sabotage at Cedar Creek by Janice Thompson (The Little Red Truck Mysteries Book 2)


 I love when books are based in Texas, one of my fave places to visit.  This is book 2 and unfortunately, I missed book 1.  I loved the mystery and the romance and the small town feel of the book with its interesting characters. There is a little suspense, but is definitely a cozy mystery. There is also a bit of humor in the book.  I love going to B&B's and so this story definitely resounded for me.  There were several possible suspects that were making it a bit difficult to be certain of who was doing the sabotage and why.  You will enjoy the fun story.
