The Heart's Choice

 


The Heart's Choice by Tracie Peterson and Kimberly Woodhouse is a historical fiction set in a small town in Montana. 

The story revolves around one of the Carnegie Libraries which was donated during the 1900's Mark Andrews returns to his hometown to manage the Library much to his fathers dismay. 

After witnessing a murder when she was a child, Rebecca Whitman's desire to learn about the law and court system leads her to become the first female court reporter in Montana. When something just doesn't seem right during a murder trial, the only one who listen is Mark.  As they travel to unravel the evidence they need, Mark and Rebecca end up spending more time together which leads to a budding romance. Good clean novel with a deep faith message.

Words of Wisdom

 

 Everything is an affair of the spirit. If God has a way of dealing with you in your life, it is the only way. Every little thing in which you would have your own way has a mission for your redemption. And he will treat you as a willful little child until you take your Father's way for your own.

George Washington's birthday

 


"The blessing and protection of Heaven are at all times necessary but especially so in times of public distress and danger. The General hopes and trusts that every officer and man will endeavor to live and act as becomes a Christian soldier, defending the dearest rights and liberties of his country."

~George Washington's birthday - February 22.

Memory Lane

 


Memory Lane by Becky Wade is the start of a new series, Sons of Scandal. 

Remy Reed has been hiding away on a little island in Maine. Reclusive and hurting, she works on her "art." She glimpses out over the water and sees a man struggling to swim. She rescues him, but he is battered and bruised and doesn't know who he is or how he got in the water. 

The story started out great. Loved the banter between the two characters. But about half way through I found the story dragged a bit. Too many characters to keep up with, and a lot of descriptions. There were some past traumas that some readers may find uncomfortable. It has a mystery that kept me reading to the end.

Merry Christmas

 

 
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. 
John 3:16-17
