I'm quickly becoming a Debbie Macomber fan. This is the first of the Cedar Cove series. The people are interesting and believable. I couldn't hardly put this book down till I finished it. Recommend this book to anyone.

I wondered what had happened to Atretes and here is a whole book all about him!! Great story and could be read all by it's self in you haven't read the first ones but would be better knowing the back story. Wonderful story, I loved it altho I liked the first two better but the ending was awesome!! Great book about God's faithfulness in our lives. Great Story!!

This is the second in the series and what a series it is!! Francine has quickly become my favorite author! I devoured this story to see what would happen, it's a wonderful story of Christian faith, hope and the search of Marcus for God is a picture of all of us looking for what's right there in reach of us all. Hadassah is a wonderful heroine, and in spite of all that's happened to her she continues to serve God and is a picture of what Faith really is!! GREAT BOOK!!!

Great book! Beverly Lewis is good reading. I think I've read all her books and none of them disappoint. I love learning how the Amish live and about their culture. But the people are what pull you in, Great stories! I love this series and it's the ones that got me started on all her other books.

Well I was one of the women who listened to this book and then made her husband listen to it. I had him trapped in the van with me on a trip to Myrtle Beach and put it in to listen to. He was a good sport and kept saying HUH! I think that there was a lot of good info imparted in the book and I'm not sure if my husband absorbed any of it or not. But we did have a few good discussions from it. It's hard to understand each other and anything that might help I'm all for. It's a great book, and I got tears sometimes when I listened to it by myself alone because I kept thinking that at last someone really understands!!! Good Luck Ladies!!

WOW!! I mean WOW!!! I learned so much from this book, I'm not sure I'll be able to share it, I may want to keep it to refer to again and again. I think I understand my husband so much better now. I can't wait to get the For Men only book for him to read. If you really want to understand your man better, I recommend this book.

Wonderful, marvelous book of the Bailey Flannigan series. You can tell that this book closely parallels Karen Kingsbury's current situation with her eldest getting ready to leave home too. I totally enjoy all the books she's written with this family and the family of characters that populate the pages. If you've enjoyed all the Baxter family series' then I don't have to tell you that this is an excellent book. Can't wait till the next book comes out in June!!!

Will it Be Cody her love since she was in school? Or will it be Brandon, the movie Star, who will win her love for a life time? This is the conclusion of the series and it's a satisfying ending for me. I have to admit to rooting for the other guy before starting this final book. but in the end it all made sense and the growth in Christ of the one she chooses is a wonderful testament to God, and shows what a Real Love with Christ in the center can be. I highly recommend this book and the entire series. Another home run by Mrs Karen Kingsbury. Love her books!!!

I picked this book up at a library book sale not really knowing anything about it or the author. I love Christian fiction and this was very good. A story about Christianity coming to Ireland in the form of a love story with adventure woven in. I totally enjoyed this book and couldn't hardly put it down!!

This book is such a travesty I would not recommend it to anyone. I makes a mockery of everything the Bible says about Mary and Jesus, tries to say that Mary and her cronies stole the body of Jesus away and that He did NOT rise from the Dead. When I first started reading this I did not recognize that he was SUPPOSEDLY writing about Mary the mother of Jesus and in fact there was nothing about this book that resembles that story whatsoever except the names of some of the characters. I was so mad that I spent time in actually reading this book. I kept thinking that this must be a book about another Mary that lived in Nazareth, after all that's a common name in the Bible as are several others. If I could give a negative 5 stars I would!!! I will not read another one of his books again. He is obviously anti- Christian and trying to convince others that it was all a hoax!

I have quickly become a fan of Dee Henderson, she has just the right touch of in what is essentially a good suspense, and romantic story. I couldn't put this down, read on it every chance I got till I finished it. I didn't realize there was a prequel, 'Danger in the Shadows', so now I"m waiting on that one to read it then I'm planning on reading the whole series, I have about 3 of them on their way to me as I write this. This is a good book, I recommend it highly, enjoy!!
