Double Indemnity Book Review
Finally at the end of this audiobook, and I’m honestly not sure how I feel about it? I REALLY wanted to like it thanks to so many great reviews I’ve seen already. I really wanted to like it even more as it has numerous mentions of life insurance, policy language, and types of coverage that I work with on a daily basis (I totally geeked out over ALL of that). But the closer I got to the end, it just fell so flat. I knew what would inevitably happen to Matt, but it took sooooo long to get there (no spoilers, promise). Elena’s character drove me nuts, but on the…

Leave It to Claire Book Review
I really enjoyed this book. Like….REALLY enjoyed this book. While my life has not played out like Claire’s (my husband and I are still married, and we’ve never dealt with the issue of adultery), there were so many ways how Claire and I are a lot alike. We have the same goals, hopes, and dreams that we’ve not made a priority as much as we should have. It was eye-opening to read her perspective (even if it was fictional). I wanted to cry through all the moments where she genuinely struggled to have a kind word to say to her ex-husband. Her heart had been shattered, and their kids were…

The Real Enemy Book Review
A very entertaining story of a big city cop who moves to a small fictional town in East Tennessee and immediately forced to handle a kidnapping case. Only it’s not one kidnapping…it’s seven. Add to this the fact that she and her husband are living a farce of a marriage after his infidelity, and they’re both trying to hold everything together for the sake of their kids. The Real Enemy is a thrilling read from beginning to end! It plods along a few times and the kidnappings almost became monotonous, but there is a point to there being 7 of them. The supporting characters (children, neighbors, Nick at the local…

Dedicated to the One I Love Book Review
Serious meets romantic in this fun rom-com by Beth Vogt! To be honest, it’s been years since I last read one of her books, but this one checked all the boxes in what makes an enjoyable read for me. There were so many laugh-out-loud moments throughout, and the chemistry between the two MCs was perfection. As much as they tried to avoid seeing each other in person, there was always something or someone throwing them together. The last quarter of the book was a roller coaster ride, but it was a beautiful one. The title fit the story in a perfect way, especially when explained in the final pages. Recommended…

The Sound of Red Returning Book Review
Except for a little bit of a lull in the middle, I thoroughly enjoyed this story! The main female character cast as a gifted concert pianist was enough to sway me to read it, and I loved the scenes where she was completely in her element performing. A love story snuck its way in about midway through, and it contrasted well against the manhunts and fear lurking around every corner. There were WAY more surprises and twists than I expected which only made it that much interesting the further I read. The ending set itself up nicely for future books in the series. Highly recommend!

Diagnosis Death Book Review
Medical mysteries are not normally a genre that I gravitate toward, but I picked this book as a random read on my Kindle, and I’m oh-so-glad I did! It took me less than 24 hours to read Diagnosis Death from start to finish because there are suspects galore with a mystery that is begging to be solved. I have long believed that certain books come into our lives at just the right time. The main character, Elena, is experiencing a crisis of faith in this story after the recent death of her husband. While I am thankfully not going through the same thing, I am dealing with a similar faith…

A Brighter Dawn Book Review
It has been a LONG time since I last read an Amish novel as intriguing as this one. It’s the first time I’ve ever read one that featured a dual timeline, and even more importantly, the first time I’ve read one that had any sort of historical references. A Brighter Dawn features three sisters in the present day who have just lost their parents to a car accident. Their grandmother believes that it would be best for them to visit their Lancaster, PA Amish relatives as there are things in their past that need to be explained. A long cross-country journey finds Rosene sharing Clare’s story of how she traveled…

In This Moment Book Review
There is literally no good way to start a review for this book. Like every other reviewer, I am struggling to even come up with adequate words to describe my experience with In This Moment in such a way that would convince someone else to read it. Simply put – it is amazing! Unless I’m mistaken, there’s been very few time travel stories written within the Christian fiction genre. (Maybe they are actually out there, and I’m just unaware.) I feel like Gabrielle has hit an untapped market of readers by merging time travel and faith together into her Timeless series. The combination of these two elements has provided me with…
