Evidence of Life - Barbara Taylor Sissel My review at Fresh Fictionhttp://freshfiction.com/book.php?id=58365
Holding On and Letting Go (The Ties That Bind Us, #1) - K.A. Coleman (Pen Name was Lucy Kelly) OMG!! I absolutely loved this book! I was a gifted a copy from the author, Lucy Kelly in return for an honest review! Let me tell you, once I started it I couldn't put it down. I was totally wrapped up in all the character's lives.  I felt like I was right there in the room with Em, going through all the emotions she was going through! I found myself cheering for her and her friends with every chapter.  Em lost her little brother Peter to leukemia but it was as if he was always right there with her, cheering her on as well. I finished this book with tears in my eyes, a lump in my throat......it was so bad at one point I had to send an email to Lucy and let her know what she was putting me through!  Job well done Lucy! I can't wait to continue on with this series so hurry up! Thank you so much for giving me the chance to read your book! Five stars all the way!! Read this book! You will not be sorry!!!
Shatter Me - Tahereh Mafi Whooaaaaa thank you Meg! :)
Bittersweet - Brooke Moss Holy  cow! This novella was so good! yes it was only 95 pages but it sure did pack a punch. BITTERSWEET is the story of  Anna.  She is a single mom with a special needs son named Bowen.  Bowen's father left them as soon as Bo was diagnosed.   His therapist comes up with an idea that will help Bo and it involves her brother Leo who is a chef.  Gianna, the therapist has left out one important fact.  Her brother is one hot motorcycle riding chef! This is where the story will tug at your heart strings. This story is so funny and sweet. Brooke has done it again. My only complaint is that the story was over before I was ready to be finished with Anna and Leo and Bo. I found myself laughing out loud and holding my breath while reading BITTERSWEET.  I fell in love with Leo almost from the start and Bowen stole my heart without me knowing it!  Awesome job Brooke, please write more. Your stories consume me.

Keeping Secrets in Seattle

Keeping Secrets in Seattle - Brooke Moss Loved it!
Barefoot in November - Benjamin J. Carey BAREFOOT IN NOVEMBER is a real life account of Ben Carey.  His wife is Nicole.  He is as heathy as an ox, always takes care of himself, and is as stubborn as a bull! There  is a history of heart disease in his family.  After feeling fatigue for a while and it not being the norm for Ben, his wife finally gets him to make an appointment for a stress test.  He is diagnosed with a aortic aneurysm.  The same thing that killed John Ritter.  Ben refuses to believe it is that bad until he talks with some life saving friends and family members.  He is only 37 years old. His wife is pregnant and they also have two small children. Wow!! Talk about a bump in the road huh?I don't usually read true life stories but I sure am glad I read the one!   His  story would surely be helpful to someone going through with the same life changing issues. It was very warm and heart breaking at times, but also funny and uplifting! Ben is very honest in his book and some readers might take it as naive but he was only 37 at the time, more fit than some people half his age. I can totally understand his was of thinking at first.  If you are dealing with a life threatening issue, this is an awesome read and it shouldn't be missed!
The Wanderer - Robyn Carr Omg!!! Soooooo good!! Wait til you read this!!"
The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight - Jennifer E. Smith Loved this book!!
Mail-Order Holiday Brides: Home for ChristmasSnowflakes for Dry Creek - Jillian Hart, Janet Tronstad I loved this book! Two awesome authors coming together once again to bring us back in to the past. I got totally lost in the stories of Christina and Annabelle. Both are mail order brides who think their lives will be very good once they get to their destinations. It's two separate stories but the two women meet on the train and are inter woven into each to the stories!I felt sorry for both of them and their stories were truly heart breaking! Great job Janet and Jillian! I want to read more!
Sunny Days for Sam - Jennifer Shirk I loved this book! If you are looking for a story to make you feel good and believe in love, SUNNY DAYS FOR SAM is the book for you! Once I started reading this book, I couldn't stop. I just had to know what was going to happen to sunny and Sam. I was afraid Sam was going to let his past get in the way and cloud his judgement of Sunny. I thought his mother had too much of an influence on his life. She surprised me. I can't wait to read more by this author! Great job Jennifer. Thank you for allowing me to read your book and I will recommend it to all my reading buddies!
Be Careful What You Wish For  - Sibel Hodge This is the second book in the Amber Fox series. I loved it! I'm really growing to love Amber, Brad, and Romeo. Amber is very sarcastic, funny, and gets into the biggest messes. I couldn't stop turning the pages! I just had to know what was going to happen with Levi and the rest of them! I just wish there was more involvement with Romeo. I was really hot for him and Amber to make a go of it. I am really enjoying this series and can't wait to read the next book! A four star read for me!
Wonderstruck - Brian Selznick What an awesome book!
On Dublin Street (On Dublin Street, #1) - Samantha Young I loved this book! Joss and Braden are awesome and I wish we could read more!

Forever Love - Deborah  Armstrong I had never read anything by this author before but I really liked this book. In FOREVER LOVE we meet Davi who is a middle aged widow about to go on a flight for a meeting in the US. She sits next to Quinn who is a young Hollywood heart throb and falls in love with Davi at first sight. She tries to resist him, but Quinn is very persistant. Her life is about to change and nothing will ever be the same again. I really enjoyed this book and once I devoted my attention to it, it was a very quick and easy read. Well done Deborah! I'm looking forward to the sequel because you have to be writing one! You would never leave us hanging like that! Hahahaha
The Fashion Police (Amber Fox, #1) - Sibel Hodge Loved it!! Am reading the next one now!!!
