MY THOUGHTS:

This is book 6 in the series if you haven’t read the others I suggest you do that first. Amanda Tru has an amazing skill in writing. These books are full of twists and turns in Hannah’s timeline and things that she encounters and changes in her past and her future. I was very interested in how Hannah’s story would come to an end and how Amanda would be able to keep things straight and tell a good story. Amanda never disappoints, she is an excellent Author! I do not want to comment too much on the book in fear of giving away too many spoilers but I love how Hannah’s story comes together and she is able to find out things about herself, her life and God’s plan for her. Things in our life aren’t always something we can control and they don’t always have the outcome we might want but in the end everyone can find the silver lining and their happy ending and that is what happens here. I highly recommend this whole set of books!!

ABOUT THE BOOK:

Savannah Harris vowed to leave behind her old life as an intrepid investigative reporter. But when a friend raises suspicions about two migrant workers who’ve gone missing from the sleepy coastal town Savannah calls home, her curiosity spikes.
As ever more eerie incidents begin afflicting the area, each works to draw Savannah out of her seclusion and raise the stakes—for both Savannah and the surrounding community. Even as Savannah’s new boarder, Clive Miller, makes her feel things she thought long forgotten, she suspects he’s hiding something too, and he’s not the only one. Doubts collide in Savannah’s mind: Who can she really trust?
As secrets emerge and danger closes in, Savannah must choose between faith and uncertainty. One wrong decision might spell the end…not just for her, but for everyone around her.
Will she unravel the mystery in time, or will doubt get the best of her?

MY THOUGHTS:

Christy Barritt does it again! This book does not disappoint! It is a page turner I didn’t want to put down. IT IS A MUST BUY! It’s a little creepy, yet, adventurous and exciting! Savannah’s story is so sad and I wanted so badly for things to work out for her. It is creepy to know that people can watch you like that without your knowledge but I know it happens. Even after all Savannah had been through in her past she was able to pull from her ‘old self’ and become the investigative reporter she was meant to be.  I loved the ending and was glad justice was served! It was a great book!

ABOUT THE BOOK:
Sierra Nakamura Davis thinks that spending Christmas with her husband’s relatives will be a real Yuletide treat. But when the animal rights activist finds out that his family has a reindeer farm, she begins to feel more like the Grinch.

Even worse, when Sierra arrives, she discovers that those very reindeer are missing. The community is depending on the creatures to spread holiday cheer at the annual light show. Plus, Sierra fears the animals might be suffering a far worst fate than being used for entertainment purposes.

Can Sierra set aside her dogmatic opinions to help get the reindeer home in time for the holidays? Or will secrets tear the family apart and ruin Sierra’s dream of the perfect Christmas?

MY THOUGHTS:
What a cute addition to the Sierra stories. I loved this little Christmas Novella! After getting to know Sierra's family it was only fitting to meet Chad's as well! I loved the end of this book and how it brings them all to the true meaning of Christmas.

Note: I was given this good by Christy Barritt in exchange for an honest review. And I loved it!

MY THOUGHTS:

I loved this book! My sweetheart was my favorite books of Shannon Guymon’s so far, I think. I was sad when Garrett wasn’t chosen by Jane but at the same time I thought Jane made the right pick. Anyway, I was really glad that Garrett got his own story!!!! I love all of the people in the little town if Fircrest and I like that you get to read about each one individually and get to know them better. I thought that Rayne and Garrett had a sweet story and they kind of reminded me of my husband and I. Especially, since we aren’t afraid to speak our minds even if that means we end up fighting and then making up! It was another great book to add to my collection. I can’t wait to read the next one!

MY THOUGHTS:

I loved this book! It think it is my favorite so far. Jane is kind of the quiet smart girl. I can relate to that! Jane defiantly had a harder time than the others. With all the different men and the mixed signals. She is also the one that comes up with the amazing dessert creations at the bakery!  I loved her and Tate’s story and even though he played hard to get and she wanted to forget him sometimes things don’t always go the way we plan! I love all of the people in the little town if Fircrest and I like that if you get more of Shannon’s books you get to read about each one individually and get to know them better.
