Spring Breakdown (Carter House Girls) by Melody Carlson

Spring Breakdown (Carter House Girls) by Melody Carlson

Another one of my very favorite authors, Melody Carlson is responsible for other great Christian chick lit titles like Limelight, A Mile in My FlipFlops and These Boots Weren’t Made for Walking. Her Carter House Girls series may be YA (young adult), but I still love it. The characters are sweet and the situations they...

The Courteous Cad by Catherine Palmer

The Courteous Cad by Catherine Palmer

I love just about everything by Catherine Palmer, but The Courteous Cad (along with her other book in the Miss Pickworth series, The Affectionate Adversary) is definitely one of my favorites. The characters are charming and Palmer knows just how to draw a reader in and keep them engaged in the story. If you love...

Review: Turning the Paige

Review: Turning the Paige

I adored the first book, Daring Chloe, in the Getaway Girls series by Laura Jensen Walker and this book is a great follow-up. Turning the Paige (love these titles!) is about Paige Kelley. She’s a thirty-something single gal who feels like life is passing her by. With the help of her awesome book club –...

Review: Jane Austen Ruined My Life by Beth Pattillo

Review: Jane Austen Ruined My Life by Beth Pattillo

I knew from the description on the back cover – not to mention the title – that this wasn’t going to be your typical Jane Austen book. Having read most of the follow-ups, retellings and modern day setting Austen novels, I was excited to find a book that went at Austen from a different approach...

Turning The Paige by Laura Jensen Walker

It was definitely worth the wait. It follows the oldest sister in the Sanderson family, Allie Harrod. She’s desperate to stay home with her new...

Screenwriter Nate Heath thought he was out of second chances. Life’s never that predictable, though. Cajoled by her father, Lauren is back in town helping train a skittish race...
