Meddling with Mistletoe

 "Meddling with Mistletoe" by Liz Johnson is a great holiday book.  As you read this book you will probably think about what an amazing holiday movie for the hallmark channel this would make.  This book has it all romance, humor and family. I really loved all the characters and the storyline. The book was a very easy read and made you feel like you were right there. The main two characters were great!  Whitney has a dream and what will she to achieve it. Daniel is a lonely man with past hurts. Will the mistletoe bring them together!

I received this complementary advance copy from the publisher for a honest review. All thoughts and opinions are mine and mine alone.

Over the edge

 Over the edge by Irene Hannon is a captivating book with lots of twist and turns.  There is wonderful storyline with great characters, whom I fell in love with.  "Over the Edge" was one of many great books by this author. I'm excited about the next book she has published. I would like to thank the author, publisher and Net valley for allowing me to read this advanced copy.

Death by Misadventure

 Death by Misadventure is the first book I've read in the "A Lady Emily Mystery"  series.

Synopsis - In the winter of 1906, Lady Emily and husband Colin are invited to Baroness Ursula Von Duchtel in the Belgian alps. Outside you are able to see the beautiful castle of mad King Ludwig. Inside the villa host a magnificent but eclectic art collection as well as as the other guests. There is a musician, an art dealer and Kaspar the Baroness son-in-law, who it appeared that someone was trying to kill. You will also return forty years earlier to the life of Niels a German lord, who loves to sing and who is friends with King Ludwig.

My thoughts - I found the book to be wonderfully written mystery that has several twist and turns that kept me engaged throughout the book. The descriptions of the mountains with the snow and icicles brought back beautiful image's of when I was there.  I loved seeing the development of the character's and how the mystery unfolded.  I have always been fascinated by the story of King Ludwig and seeing this part of the story gave me insight to what his life could've been like.

I highly recommend "Death by Misadventure"

The Cage and the Safehouse

 I have to say that I've never read a book by this author. I thought I would jump out there a give the books a try!  I enjoyed the storyline in both books, but I'm not much for the sex details.  I think the book would have been great, but with less sex.
