"Honor" from the Quaker Bride Series by Lyn Cote was a great book to read. A story of betrayal, trust, believing, and love all wrap up in a story. Honor, a young Quaker woman who was betrayed by her grandfather, who believed justice for those who are in slavery, and open her heart to a young man, Samuel who could not speak or hear. Samuel, also had to learn to allow himself to be open to Honor and let her in his life. He sheltered himself from people to prevent from being hurt. I really like Honor, for her love for God and those around her. Even though, there were things she still had to fight within her. Honor, still tried to do the right thing. Can Honor and Samuel find a common ground and open to love? As you read this book, you will find yourself cheering for the both of them. I received this book from The Book Club network for my honest review. I recommend this book. Can't wait for the next book.

When I first started reading, Miranda Warning (A Murder in the Mountains, # 1) by Heather Day Gilbert. I thought I was going to get confused by the story. But, actually it was the opposite. Heather gave the views of a young married woman, Rose who was troubled. Whereas, she gave the views and story of the other characters, such as, Tess Spencer, Miranda, and those who were involved with Rose. I was intrigued by the story and held my attention. It kept me in suspense to know what was going to happen next. Who did it? Who's fault was it? Why did it happen? How did it happen? All these questions kept popping in my head as I was reading the story. As I got to the end of the story, I was an awe. I really enjoyed how it all flowed together. I recommend this book.

This was a wonderful book to read. I loved the characters in this mennonite story. The way Summer suffered the lost of her family and her healing process. How God put joy back in her life. It truly was a wonderful story.

I love the book cover of A Woman of Fortune from Kellie Coates Gilbert. The enticing red dress and the foreground of the book made me want to pick it up and read the story behind the cover. Though, the cover of the book was great. I did have a hard time getting through the book. A story of betrayal and humiliation of Claire Massey, a socialite woman who was married to Tuck,a cattle rancher. There life seemed like a dream, with fancy cars, a great big house, all the money they could have, and other luxuries you could imagine. When during an event, he is arrested for scamming people and stealing their money. He is prosecuted and sent to prison, while his wife and family is left to pick up the pieces of their lives. The story talks about how each member of the family dealt with the situation and how they moved forward. The author put realism in each character and at times there were a few instances that I could relate to the character. For me, it was a slow read, but a great story. I commend the author for stepping out and writing about real life issues that happens not only to the rich, but to the poor as well.
Received this book from The Book Club Network my honest review.
