Book 36: Until Forever by Darlene ShortridgeThis story had a really rough beginning. The characters are pulled apart by a tragedy, that they are not sure they will ever overcome. Jessi and Mark must both learn that on our own we can not overcome anything. We need to lean and trust on God's guidance to get us through life's tough circumstances as well as the day to day issues. Sometimes the choice we make will take years or even a lifetime to get past, but when we trust in Him, things are bound to happen.
The book, while incredibly sad to begin with, had a peace and hope about it that kept me reading it.
The characters were believable and the story was as well.
I would give this book 4 stars.
Book 37: Prize of my Heart by Lisa NoratoThis book was filled with history and romance.
The story revolves around Captain Brogan Talvis, who while at sea, as a privateer, discovers his wife has given their child away to a stranger. She claims he will never find the boy, and then before he can get home she unexpectedly dies. Left with no clues he begins to search for anything that might be a lead. Three year's later he discovers where he is.
He comes up with a plan to rescue his son, but soon discovers that he is being well cared for and loved by the daughter of the man who took him in. Lorena loves the boy and the captain is torn on how to get his son without harming her. He believe is plan will work until another man puts Lorena at risk and he discovers he must put aside his desire to reclaim his son to help the man that has been caring for him rescue his daughter.
This book had many twists and turns, and kept the reader interested throughout the story and sometimes caught off guard.
I give this book 5 stars.
