SWEET TALK

Sweet Talk

Attorney and IRS agent Olivia Mackenzie is a tough, and powerful woman. She is on the trail of a Ponze scheme her father is running. But Olivia is honest and kind-hearted and must help the other innocent people even though it will put her father in jail.  After digging to find evidence against her father, Olivia suddenly finds her own life is in danger. Olivia also has to deal with family members who are blasting her for trying to put their father in jail. Things get ugly very quickly!

 FBI Agent Grayson Kincaid comes to her rescue like a knight in shining armour, with a badge of course, and there is an immediate and obvious attraction between the two. But Olivia's past makes it obvious to her that no permanent relationship can develop between her and Grayson.

It was a good book, but I found the plot somewhat weak. The characters were very loveable and I know I would like to have a Grayson Kincaid come to my rescue anytime. So its a good book, but not one of Julie Garwood's best. Read it for yourself and let me know how you liked it!

When Love Comes My Way

When Love Comes My Way

While Christian Fiction isn't a new genre, it is something new for me.  I usually read fiction and mysteries, but lateley I find myself liking this genre very much. It's just good, clean, relaxing and entertaining! I have never been bored by any of the books I've read in this genre. Lori Copland is also a new author for me. I work in a public library and people were always telling me what a good author she is but I had never read any of her books. So when this new book came into the library I thought, hmmm this sounds interesting, think I'll give it a try and I did and I really liked it! So here goes my newest review!

WHEN LOVE COMES MY WAY is a story about a love found quite by "accident".  After the death of her father, Tess Wakefield is now the new owner of a logging company. Tess would rather open up a few hat shops, since she loves making and creating hats. So after taking advice from her fiance, Tess decides to sell her logging company to one of her competitors.  So Tess boards a train in the dead of winter to go talk to her manager at the logging camp about the sale of the company.  Tess and the other passengers arrive safely at the train station and then they board a wagon that will take them to the logging camp.  Sadly along the way to the camp, the wagon looses a wheel and they are plunged headlong into disaster and into an icy river.  Only 2 passengers survive, the driver of the wagon and a woman. 

Jake Lannigan, manager of the Wakefield Logging camp is anxiously awaiting the arrival of the new school teacher as well as Miss Tess Wakefield. When will they arrive and what train will they be on?  When Jake hears of the accident he quickly goes over to help. Sadly only 2 people survive while the others were swept downstream in the icy river. But who is this woman survivor? Is she Tess or the new school teacher?  Jake has a good idea of who this woman is, but he can't be too sure.  He can only speculate. But sadly the female survivor has amnesia and she doesn't know who she is.  The only thing we do know is that there is a powerful attraction between the woman survivor and Jake.  Hope you enjoy this book!



HAPPY READING!
