The Stolen Life of Colette Marceau by Kristin Harmel

 The author never fails to pen a tale that weaves gracefully between the present day and the past.  


The Marceau family continues in the family legacy of Robin Hood as we enter into Paris in WWII.  Annabelle steals in order to fund the resistance movement and to protect the lives of the Jews.  Collette completes her thievery in the present day in America to fund noble causes.  


All of the characters in the story center around the jewelery and how their choices affect the rest of their lives.  


Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the arc.  The opinions are my own.

Lowcountry Lost by T.I. Lowe

5 stars!!!! Somewhere is the place where the reader will want to be!! From the prologue the author has the reader picturing themselves in the story. She engages the reader with her typical deep storyline with its sprinkling of humor throughout.   The idea of turning these abandoned ghost towns into viable properties is such an engaging story I love Maudie--she loves Avalee deeply but also confronts her when needed. I also want to pick up a hammer and start renovating.  I love how they keep the treasures and find ways to reuse them like the best HGTVers Love the idea of small happies The quotes throughout the book are so meaningful!  I highlighted so many of them! Thanks so much for the ARC!  The opinions are my own!

Ambush by Colleen Coble

 Such a great setting for this romantic suspense book!  The Sanctuary is home to exotic animals but Paradise is hoping that it will be home to her as she confronts her past.  Blake is doing the noble thing by coming home to help his mom and brothers but comes alongside Paradise to help discover all of the attacks on the Sanctuary.   My favorite characters were Jenna, Levi and Isaac.  Those little boys were so sweet!    Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the arc.  The opinions are my own.

Some Like it Scot by Pepper Basham

 Wow!  The puns and misadventures in this book were such a treat!  Katie had such a humble view of herself and didn't take herself seriously.  Her ability to laugh off her blinders and find the joy in each day was so endearing.  Katie's descriptions of Graeme painted him in such a good light.  Mirren was an incredible character and a person you would want in your corner.  Lachlan was just adorable as could be.   Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the arc.  The opinions are my own.
