                 I have to say that this was my favorite of the series. And it was a great ending to an awesome series. Everything tied up nicely at least it seemed like it to me. I enjoyed the trip to the Scilly isles and meeting all the characters.

       Though I have to say that Bram might just be my favorite hero from the series from his stance on bullies. That quote was my favorite from the book. And he was the one that seemed the most changed.It’s bitter sweet to end this series but I don’t think I’ll ever forget the characters I meet in these books. And the wisdom shared.

Worthy of Legend

The Secrets of the Isles Book 3
Releases September 13, 2022

1906

After a summer of successful pirate-treasure hunting, Lady Emily Scofield and her friends are forced to hide the unprecedented discoveries they’ve made, thanks to the betrayal of her own family. Horrified by her brother who stops at nothing to prove himself to their greedy father, Emily is forced to take a stand against her family—even when it means being cut off entirely.

Bram Sinclair, Earl of Telford, is fascinated with tales of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table—an interest he’s kept mostly hidden for the last decade. But when a diary is unearthed in the islands that could lead to a secret artifact, Bram is the only one able to piece the legends together.

As Bram and Emily seek out the whereabouts of the hidden artifact, they must dodge her eager family and a team of archeologists. In a race against time, they must decide what makes a hero worthy of legend—is it fighting valiantly to claim the treasure . . . or sacrificing everything in the name of selfless love?

No Place Like Home by Jess Mastorakos review

 Title: No Place like home

Author: Jess Mastorakos

Ch: 22 plus epilogue

Series: Charlotte Oaks

Genre: Rom Com

Rating: 4 stars

Publisher: Self

I was excited about this one because Jess is one of my favorite contemporary authors and I love small town romances. Though I was worried I wouldn’t get her typical hero, a Marine. But I didn’t have to worry her small town hero is Everette former Marine turned mechanic.

I loved the small-town setting as it was almost like its own character. And I loved Everette from the beginning. However, it took me a while to warm up to Laney. As the way she is in the beginning she’s one that takes a while to warm up to. But she does grow on you.

This is the first book in the Charlotte Oaks series, and I can wait to read more. It’s also part of the novella collection Fall back in love.

Crossfire by Lynette Eason Review

 Title:  Crossfire

Author:  Lynette Eason

Ch: 29

Pg:  308

Series: Extreme Measure book 2

Genre:  Christian Romantic Suspense

Rating: 5 stars

Publisher: Revell

 

Lynette Eason is one of my go to for Christian romantic suspense because she writes the right balance of romance and suspense. And Crossfire the second book in the Extreme Measures series is no different. I enjoyed this one more than the first one.

I’m normally not a fan of the romance part of the romantic suspense but with this one I loved the romance more than the suspense. Which is actually a first for me. I loved reading Julianna James and Clay Snyder’s story.

Eason handled a storyline that could have been taken from recent headlines with grace and tact. And that’s what makes her such an amazing suspense author. And something else I liked was that the verse at the beginning is one I’ve had as a favorite for years.

The Last Way Home by Liz Johnson review

 Title:  The Last Way Home 

Author:  Liz Johnson

Pg:  368

Series: Prince Edward Island Shores book 2

Genre:  Christian Contemporary Romance

Rating: 4 stars

Publisher: Revell

    The last way home by Liz Johnson is the second book in the Prince Island shores Series. And while I didn’t love it as much as the first one in the series, I didn’t enjoy reading about a hockey player get a second chance. This one’s a bit of a prodigal son retelling.

Every time I read one of Liz’s Prince Edward Island books, I feel like I’m there. The setting is just as much a part of the story as the hero and heroine. And the secondary characters don’t feel secondary. And I’m looking forward to the final brother’s story in the next one.

Love & Other Great Expectations by Becky Dean review

Title:  Love & Other Great Expectations 

Author:  Becky Dean

Ch: 30

Pg:  371

Genre:  YA Contemporary Rom Comish

Rating: 4.5 stars

Publisher: Delacorte Press

 

I'm not going to lie I picked this one up for the cover and title. I didn't bother to read the blurb.  But it was the first line "Dreams are like knees-- you don't realize how fragile they are until something rips them to shreds."  that had me hooked. I had to keep reading I had to know what happened. Because like Britt I also played soccer and it was a knee injury that sidelined me. And just like Britt I had to rethink my whole future and career choices. But my knee injury wouldn't keep me from college I had no desire to play college soccer no my knee injury and the diagnosis it led to me having to give up my dream of joining the Marines.  So even though I'm not the typical audience for YA Britt was an easy character to relate.  I enjoyed reading her adventures through the United Kingdom and through classic works of literature. With British Luke along for the ride.  

This one lean more on the side of YA Contemporary more so than a YA Rom Com though it does have its rom com moments.  This was a great debut from Becky Dean, and I can't wait to see what else she writes.
