Review: For Love & Honor by Jody Hedlund

About the book:

Lady Sabine is harboring a skin blemish, one, that if revealed, could cause her to be branded as a witch, put her life in danger, and damage her chances of making a good marriage. After all, what nobleman would want to marry a woman so flawed?

Sir Bennet is returning home to protect his family from an imminent attack by neighboring lords who seek repayment of debts. Without fortune or means to pay those debts, Sir Bennet realizes his only option is to make a marriage match with a wealthy noblewoman. As a man of honor, he loathes the idea of courting a woman for her money, but with time running out for his family’s safety, what other choice does he have?

As Lady Sabine and Sir Bennet are thrust together under dangerous circumstances, will they both be able to learn to trust each other enough to share their deepest secrets? Or will those secrets ultimately lead to their demise?

Review: True to You by Becky Wade

About the book:

After a devastating heartbreak three years ago, genealogist and historical village owner Nora Bradford decided that burying her nose in her work and her books is far safer than romance in the here and now.

Unlike Nora, former Navy SEAL John Lawson is a modern-day man, usually 100 percent focused on the present. However, when John, an adoptee, is diagnosed with an inherited condition, he’s forced to dig into the secrets of his ancestry.

John enlists Nora’s help to uncover the identity of his birth mother, and as they work side-by-side, this pair of opposites begins to suspect that they just might be a perfect match. But can their hope for a future survive their wounds from the past?

It's June...Time for a BIG giveaway!!!

With spring comes spring cleaning and thus I have collected a bunch of books over the past weeks that I would like to give to someone else to enjoy. This giveaway is for a box of books...all Christian fiction. As many as I can fit into the box. Some are older books, others are recent releases. It will be a mix of genres and hopefully something the winner will love. Kind of like a surprise box of books. ;)

Because I will be shipping this out, the giveaway is only open to continental US addresses. Sadly, shipping prices are just way too expensive for anything else. Giveaway ends June 30th.
