"The Key to Love" by Betsy St. Ament

 This is a author I've never read before. Betsy St. Ament book "The Key to Love" is  excellent book and I will like to read more of hers.  The book has adventure, romance and is funny in several areas. The Key to Love is well written and the characters are likable. I fell in love Bri and her desire to have a romance like her parents and Gerards desire to never get married.  The ups and downs relationship is very sweet. The book is such a great book that Hallmark needs to read it.

I will gladly recommend this book to friends, family and other's through Facebook, Barnes and Noble, Netgally, Book bud, Goodreads and Amazon.

I received this complementary copy from Revell through netgally for a honest review. All thoughts are mine.

The red ribbon by Pepper Basham

The Red Ribbon is the 8th book in the True Colors series.  This is the first book by Pepper Basham I've read and I'm looking forward to reading more of her creative written books.

Synopsis - I Carroll County, a corn shucking is a social event, until a mischievous kiss leads to one of the biggest tragedies in Virginia history. Ava was not a normal mountain in girl. Sh e was very bab habit of court in' trouble and her curiosity has opened a fight between local authorities and a Appalachian clan which lead to the Hicksville courthouse massacre of 1912.

My thoughts - The story is set in the Appalachian Mountain in 1912.   This book is a page turn from the very beginning and such a page turner. The story has everything you would love in a book. It has fighting, adventure, romance and clan  like the Hatfield and McCoy.

Recommend -  I will give this a book a 5 out of 5.  I will recommend this book to friends, family and social media.

The Gold Digger by Liz Tolsma

My thoughts - I really liked this book and the storyline. It made me think of all the characters and wonder if I liked them. It was a page turner with a suspect from the  very beginning.

The Shepard's Wife by Angela Hunt

 This is the second book by Angela Hunt in The Jerusalem Road series.  The author is a wonderful story teller. 

Synopsis - Yeshua of Nazareth has two sister's. One sister Damaris was married to a merchants son and Pheodora was married to a very simple man.  Damaris could never understand why her little sister would settle for a simple life. The Lord had plans for both sister's.

My Thoughts -You can never go wrong with one of Angela Hunt books. She is so good at letting you be a part of the book. You feel life your being transform to a different time period in history. This is a great story and a page turner. 

I would recommend this book to other.

Sisters of war by Lana Korlchek

 Synopsis - Kiev in 1941: Watching the Red Army withdraw from the Ukraine in the case of Hitler's relentless advances. Sister's Natasha and Lisa Smirnove realized their lives were about to change.

My thoughts - I was asked by a friend if I liked the book "German Midwife " and that I might like the "Sister's of War" by Lana Korichek.

I fell in love with this book! It was a great! Sister's of War was a page turner and drew me in from the first chapter. Sister's of War was about what people go through during the most horrible time in our history. It was a war of great magnitude. It affected Natasha and Lisa and their family and friends in several areas.  This book was well written and you can see the author research of the time period.  There were areas of this book that made me cry and laugh. It made me wonder how people survived during this time. Beside being a page turner, there was adventure and romance. 

I will gladly recommend this book to family, friend's and my local library.

I will give this book a 5 out of 5.

Nine by Rachelle Dekker

 This is the second book I have read by Rochelle Dekker.  The first book was a calibration with her father Ted Dekker. I think this was a good book but it wasn't my cup of tea. The book didn't catch my attention in the first chapter. It was hard to stay focused on the book. I have to say the people were likable. I think this book will be excellent for people who are younger.

I am rating this book a 3 out of a five.

I will recommend this book because, it is probably others cup of tea

Royal by Danielle Steel

 The very first book I read by Danielle Steel was called "The Ring".  I was about 17 and it was one amazing book set during WWII.  I feel in love with this wonderful author and have loved her books since.  The "Royal" pulled me into the story from the very first page. There is everything in this book that you expect.  The first is the WWII story. You see the affect of the war on people up from the royal family to the poor. You see what families had to do to get through this horrible war. You see young love develop, unexpected death, and compassion. All the characters are likeable and the book was easy to follow. The book was right up my alley with my love for WWII period.

I would gladly recommend this book to family and friends through review's on social media, Amazon, Goodreads, Netgalley, and Bookbud.

I received this complimentary copy from Netgalley and publisher company. I was under no obligation to write a review. The review is my thought and opinions.
