Across the Crying Sands by Jane Kirpatrick

  Kroosreadsandreviews thoughts: I loved being in the Pacific Northwest in the 1890's as the characters progress towards more updates.  It was interesting to see the thoughts behind the roads that were laid and how mail was distributed.   I loved Mary and her fierce determination and resilience to survive amidst a harsh climate.   She took a lot of risks in order to achieve her dreams.   There seemed to be a lot of loose ends but maybe those will weave together in the next book? Thanks to the publisher for the arc.  The opinions are my own.

Deadly Christmas Trap by Lynette Eason

  I listened to this as an audiobook.  I really enjoyed how the narrator brought the story to life.  She had the ability to provide different voices for the characters.  The narrator also had the ability to bring the suspense to her voice! The story grabbed me from the beginning as Cheyenne tries to avoid those who are after her.  She is cunning and so intelligent in her cyber life.  It brought a unique aspect to a Love Inspired Suspense story.  Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the audiobook.  The opinions are my own.

South of Somewhere by T.I. Lowe

  Kroosreadsandreviews: South of Somewhere chronicles Junie's life as she leaves rehab. The story will pull you in as the author weaves the emotional highs and lows.   I love that Junie has a group that surrounds her and supports her. My favorites were Gilbert and Henry. I saw Gilbert as a kindly grandpa but also one that could give a kick in the pants if you got out of line. Henry was just super sweet and quiet and compassionate.   While the topic could be overwhelming, the author is able to present it in such a way that you can understand a little more about addiction and recovery.   A highlight was visiting the town of Somewhere that was from a previous book! The characters and the story will stay with me for quite some time.   Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the arc. The opinions are my own.
