Book Reviews by Rachael

Meg is an amazing character and I really related to her and her struggles.  Meg is left by her husband after a few weeks she finds out she is preganant.  Meg's strong character and determination to have this baby on her own and go back to church is what bring a new love into her life.  This book goes into depth of the daily struggles some mothers go through to bring a child into this world.  The book is romantic and inspiring a fun, clean read.  The book left me turning page after page and hoping the story would never end.  I gave this book 5 stars and read this book in November 2011.

This book was a second for  me by this author and just like her first book I loved it.  This author is amazingly funny, I loved her chracters and story line.  This was such a funny book, whilst reading this book I was very busy but I made time to finish this book, I picked it up every spare moment I had and stayed up late at night so I could see what would happen at the end.  This book lightened each day for me, with the funny quirkyness.  The main character was amazing.  This book is about a girl who after a failed engagement moves home with her family to pay off debts.  She has to share a room with her 7 year old sister and strawberry shortcake!!  She is fed up of her job and wants to desperately be a writer.  She gets a job in a small magazine doing cover stories.  This was a great book I gave it 5 stars and I read this book in November 2011.

If you have never read a book by this author you need to go get one right now.  I just love this Authors books, she writes amazing, clean fiction and she is able to weave a romantic tale and leave you with that warm fuzzy feeling you have when  you read a good story.  This book was amazing, the author is already known for her clean romance and this one is no exception.  This story was interesting, exiting and page turning and of course romantic, with lots of clean kissing.  The story is about a girl who loves antiques and after inheriting a house from a friend she finds many treasures, including the grandson of her friend.  Great story, great characters and great romance.  A must read.  I gave this book 5 stars and read this book in October 2011.

This book was really good, I loved the main character and the guy she is involved with, this book was an easy and funny read.  The plot is a girl with a list of things to do before she gets married.  Ashly Barret doesn't want to get married, she has a list of 25 goals from learing to make Sushi to Surfing #13 learn to surf.  #17 have a summer romance seems to go together and so does Matt Gibson the hunky Surf instructor.  He is cute, and LDS #13 and #17 could get crossed off.  She hatches a plan to love and leave him before she goes to Grad School, but when Matt doesn't want to be left what does Ashley do?  I gave this book 5 stars, just a fun read and easy read I read this book in September 2011.

This book was fantastic.  I have been to Montanna and the way the author describes it reminds me just like when I was there.  It was great.  I liked the forbidden love she had going on, she was careful and i'm sure this really does happen and I wonder how families get through this.  The plot was about a girl who goes to her fiance home in Montanna to spend time before there wedding.  She meets her fiances brother and sparks fly.  I loved the characters they were real and life like.  I read this book in June 2011. I gave this book 4 stars.

This book is one of my favorites by this author and in general.  I have read this book a few times now just because the story is so different and I just liked it.  The story is about a young girl who marries and her husband leaves her.  She faces meany hardships in trying to manage a farm and taking care of herself and unborn child.  She has a friend in an amazing neighbor and their love story is just so nice.  Well worth reading.

I love all the books written by this amazing author, some more than others and this book is great.  If you love books with Pirates, you will certainly love this one.  The hero is handsome of course, and he saves a damsall, only she is not sure what is worse, where she was, or being his captured by yet another pirate.  This book is funny, romantic and has some unexpected twists.  Another great read. 

This book is set in the late 1800's.  It is about a desperate father who joins a lawless group to claim a teacher for his son.  He kidnapps a teacher and drags her with him to collect his son, so she can teach him.  This book is funny, and romantic and thrilling.  A fast read and a great storyline.  This book will appeal to anyone who loves to read about funny romance.

This book is set on the Wisconsin frontier. The storyline is about a girl who is hearbroken by her fiances betrayal, she gives up on love and answers a advertisement to become a mail-order bride.  Once she arrives at her destination she is immediately drawn to the hansome stranger waiting at the train station, who is no other than the groom.  This book is both romantic and part suspense and will be a great read to either reader.  I will look for more work from this author.

This book is written by one of my favorite authors.  The author takes you to Ireland in this book and the book is funny, romantic and mysterious.  The story is about a girl who wishes to visit her grandmother and she enlists the help of an Irish man to help her travel from England to Ireland.  When she arrives at the familys ancestral home it is in a great need of help.  You will love the chracters of this book, and if you like historical romance this book is for you.

This book is set in early 1800's.  It is about a girl who is banished from her family and sent to live in an abandoned gatehouse on a distant relative's house.  This book is funny, mysterious and romantic.  If you enjoy books set in this era, this book takes you into the life of a young woman forced to support herself by writing novels.  This book is well worth reading and the author is very talented in writing this time period.
