Today I am going to post a line from

The Captive Heart
by Michelle Griep.

I have seen this book popping up a lot lately it seems and I have been anxious to read it. And...I finally got my hands on a copy when I received an email from the Barbour Review Krew.  I am simply delighted I was selected to review this historical, Christian, romance novel by Michelle Griep.  I just love the cover.  And... I think it is pretty cool that the girl has red hair (being a red-head myself).

February 1770

My precious Lord;
My only hope;
My Savior, how I need You now.


Elanor Morgan repeated the words, over, and over, scrubbing her fingernails more vigorously with each repetition.

"Noella Crawford heard the chirp of the email alert on her phone and had to grip the steering wheel tightly with both hands to resist fishing the cell out of her purse to check it." From The Wonder of His Love by Kimberly Rae Jordan (in the set Candy Cane Kisses)

It takes a real man to be a Missouri River pilot, and that’s why a good one draws down as high as a thousand dollars a month. Stephanie Grace Whitson’s “A Captain For Laura Rose”
I haven’t read it yet, I had to reboot my kindle this was the first book past my “collections” pages.

I can't wait to read A Captive Heart!

I wasn't sure about this one, so I looked it up and it is on my Goodreads TBR shelf. I must have found it at one point. Looks like a good one! Enjoy! :)

I look forward to hearing about the book above!! I plan to do a lot of reading after November! "Nothing in Abigail MacLeod's life prepared her for the shock of watching Benjamin Rosen die in her arms." Lynn Austin.

This sounds like a good one! :) I will have to go check it out. Have read a few by Lynn, but not this one I don't think. :)
