Words Spoken True Book Review


Words Spoken True

Words Spoken True: A Novel

Words Spoken True is a novel based in Kentucky.  In fact, that is the reason, I really wanted to review it being my hubby is from there.

I was hoping to learn a little about the culture and time back then.  However, it was more of a love story with a little mystery thrown in.

Having read Ann H. Gabhart in the past, I was a little surprised at this novel.  It was definitely suspenseful with a killer on the loose.  It also had the romance that kept me intrigued.

For some reason, the first part of the book it was like a slow movie.  I wish the author would have sped up the plot, just a little.  By the end, it was worth the read.

I still would recommend this book for mature eyes.  Some of the scenes portrayed are rather violent in nature.

This would be a cute movie.

Blessings to you!  You are loved!

Heart Safe Passage Book Review

Heart's Safe Passage
Heart's Safe Passage: A Novel (The Midwives)


Have you ever started a book and thought this is not for me, only to find out you really liked it?

It took me a while to even open the book.  For some reason, the cover made me a little scared.  The waters reminded me of an old time Disney ghost movie.

The content of the story was totally different.  The author took me back in time to pirates, ship voyages, and a war that I didn't know much about.

I was entertained while learning about a different time in life.  While the story is totally fiction, it is based on a time that was real.

The characters were likable and I was drawn into their story.  Even though this was a series, the author gives you enough information to not have to read the first story.

I would recommend this book for mature readers.

Blessings to you!  You are loved!
