Heartfelt Cases Book 1: The Collins Case“This was a great read. I love a good mystery and adventure. I read the eBook quite some time ago and it is such a good read I enjoyed it as much listening to it now. This book added the special quality of being a clean, Christian story. Looking forward to the next one.

The narration held a personal touch that added to the feeling of the emotions and love for flying and the planes.

Dreams of a Bride (Daisy Creek Brides Book 11)“This is a delightful romance with wonderful characters and some adventure thrown in as well. There is a new approach as an entertainment caravan as the stage. It is clean and sweet for Christian readers, I've enjoyed all the books I have listened to in this series. Each book can stand alone, but listening or reading them in order adds to the reader's enjoyment with a little more background from the previous books.
The narration is not the 100% best I've listened to but does not detract from the story.

Mending the Widow’s Broken Heart: Inspirational Western Mail Order Bride Romance (Daisy Creek Brides Book 9)“This is a very sweet story. Carter's patience and kind caring are so romantic.

This story was inspirational as the reader watches God heal Maisie. Her girls were such cute characters!

Guardian Angel Files Book 2: Kindred Spirits“Though the spiritual battle between the good and evil is very real and scriptural, the author here has taken great poetic license in this book. I would consider it fiction/fantasy barring the truth of the war of principalities and powers as stated in the Bible. Having said that, if the reader keeps that in mind, and reads it as fiction, it is a very interesting story and keeps the pages turning. The good characters are very likeable on the one side and the bad very unlikeable on the other side. There are places where it is dark, but that is expected in a book that includes Lucifer and demons. Mina and Allister, and the other angels, are the rays of light in the book and keep it from becoming too dark. I always enjoy books by this author, and this one is no exception.
The narrator, Reuben Corbett, does a wonder job of bringing the characters to life and creating voices that truly reflect what they are like.

Run With My Heart“What a fun book to listen to. I enjoyed watching the changes in both Tucker and Shelby as they helped one another see the value they each had. Humor offset some of the more serious parts as the characters interacted with the kids. And then the way real life seemed to interfere with the connection and trust between Tucker and Shelby and they both had to learn to give things to God. The story also addressed the issue of places of ministry like the community center that in reality do exist. I'm a push-over when it comes to Ms. Hoopes' books. She never fails to keep me involved and hold me to the end.
The narration is again superb. Ms. Hoopes really knows how to express each character.

Though Ms. Blackmon warned of some repetition because it was parallel to book 1 of the series, I thought the story could have been told without repeating so much involvement in the lives of the main characters in the previous story. Other than that, I really got into the story after Jason and Victoria left Key West and moved on to England.

Dan McCall’s Bride“I never fail to enjoy books by Ms. Goss. This one was full of mystery, romance, inspiration and all the other things this author includes in all of her books. The book is well written and there are twists and turns to the very end. Intrigue follows Leila while she endeavors to remember who she is and Dan determines to keep from falling in love, finding all the obstacles to letting Leila into his heart. As should be, in the end, with God's help, everyone finds their place and those plaguing Dan and Leila are brought to justice.

Dangerous Illusions“I cannot imagine what it would be like to venture out all on my own in the 1800's to an unknown place in the "wild west." Then when things turn out totally different than expected; living around with strangers, having no school building; falling for a man about to be married to someone else; plus all the adjustments to life in the west. Rumors stir up more fear for Kate and a mystery surrounds the family she must stay with. Lessons about rumors and truth and friendship are ones Kate must learn the hard way. This is a great story and well written so that the listener is spurred on to listen to every last minute of the book.
The narration is very good.

Captured Heart“It's hard to say who captured whose heart but in the end it doesn't really matter. This is one of Ms. Goss' best that I've listened to so far. It was one I could not put down. There was inspiration as Amanda learned to trust God once again after she thought He had deserted her and Luke gently prodded her back. It showed how people sometimes get priorities all wrong and how sometimes circumstances and love can open their eyes. This was such a good book--highly recommend it.
The narration was wonderful!
This was a fun story to listen to. There was a new approach to the romance of a mail order bride which was refreshing. It had enough adventure to keep the story from moving too slow and a mystery that was not solved until near the end, but with just enough clues to keep the reader from figuring out too soon what had happened. This was a delightful listen.

Roanoke Island Murders: A Modern Retelling of the Maltese Falcon“It seems every time I think I got a good audio book to review, the language and content take a dive into the world of inappropriate. I keep needing to find new ways to express an old issue to review. I didn't even get far enough into this one to be able to review it without fast forwarding further into the book. What can I say? I am very offended at the language used. I hear enough of it in the real world and don't want to purposely feed it into my mind when reading. I think the story was good, the narrator did a great job, and I'm sorry not to be able to continue with the book. To the author I would say, improve your vocabulary so that your characters can speak with clean words. There are plenty of those to use!

Heiress of Embers“After reading Book 1 of this series, I was hoping for two things: 1) that the series would end and 2) that the language would leave out the inappropriate phrases and words. I was disappointed on both fronts. I won't be buying any more of the series. Having said that I thought the story was once again fun to read. The mystery of Azia's heritage continued, her romance with Milo progressed, the king's refusal to listen to Azia seemed just as unwise as always. But as I said the ending left a lot of things hanging. If you like the books and have a book budget that can handle it, I wouldn't discourage the purchase of this series.

I don't usually like continuing series that are not stand-alone either; however I do have the second book and hope it will not be continued as well.

I think the descriptions of Isla's lifestyle were more detailed that needed--not to my taste at all. I tried another book and it was worse language that this one.

Border Love“I've always felt compassion for the illegal immigrants trying to enter our country while at the same time I hold high regard for the laws of our country and justice for those who break them. So from that point of view I could understand Brooke's dilemma of upholding the law vs. pity for those wanting a better life here in the USA. The author has given a clear view of both sides of the situation on our border with Mexico--the good, the bad, the lawful, the unlawful, the dilemma for each. She also, in the midst of all that, gave readers a great mystery and romance. This was an eyeopener for this reader as well to the dangers both sides face at the border. I never really thought about how dangerous it is for the border patrol. It seems we hear more about the dangers of those who challenge the laws of immigration to enter illegally. About the coyote's who lead people to their deaths. The drug runners who blatantly bring their deadly products into this country. Ms. Wootson has done a wonderful job of giving a picture of the border issues without entering into a political discussion. Well done!
The narration by Leonor A. Woodworth was also well done. Each voice was distinguishable which made it easy to follow as various characters spoke.

And it brought to mind the many times God has worked in my life in a similar way. This is a book I gladly recommend to everyone, young and old.

Carl Martin was sweet and his wife, though shocked at first came around to being a loving person. All the characters were realistic. Jenna was the best best friend to the end.
There were a few places where I was disappointed to hear inappropriate language and content. Seems unless I request to review "Christian" books that is the case most of time. Surely there are authors out there that could choose better language to express the story.

Spouse Trap: The Madeline Dawkins Series, Book 1“This was such a spellbinding mystery. There were numerous twists and turns making it hard not to just sit down and listen for hours to find out what happens next. Madeline is a great character; a strong woman, but still realistically human. I loved Bert! He is so caring and yet professional and good at his job. The only character I wasn't overly fond of is Mike. He would have been great as Madeline's friend, but I found it hard to tolerate his foul mouth. I think the author needs to increase her vocabulary if she cannot express a character without inappropriate language, which is the reason I did not give 5 stars to the overall rating. And the reason I would hesitate reading more by this author. The narrator, Melissa Kay Benson, is good, but needs to use lower voices for the men, and there were times it was difficult to figure out which character was talking.

I am always amazed when an author seems to have such a limited vocabulary that they resort to inappropriate language to express their characters when the dictionary is full of words that are clean and express the idea just as well. I don't like to give negative reviews, but I couldn't come up with anything else for this book.

This book in the Gus LeGarde Series was a lot more intense than the previous books I've read. Having said that, it was a thought provoking book. I don't know how I would have reacted had any Germans crossed my path; I was not born during WWII nor did I know any Germans during my childhood. I do remember my mother being very negative about the "Japs" when I was small, years after the war, though I think it was a general dislike because one of her best friends was a Japanese lady. I can understand the feelings of people who lost family members in the war. This story really brought to light that we need to be aware that this kind of thing is still going on with groups in our country at present, with many of them still promoting such plans and ideas the same as the Nazis. The story also offers a lot of positive thoughts about the people who work to stop the actions of these groups.
The story of family history is very interesting. Knowing that the personal family side is fiction, the historical information is fascinating. I am a true music lover and Chopin is one of my favorite composers. I've spent many hours at the piano playing his music. Also from the family perspective, the story is wonderful. It illustrates the true meaning and importance of family and family heritage.
I am definitely ready for more of this series! I should mention that the narrators that work with Mr. Lazar have been top notch!

Mazurka“As I listened to this book I was reminded that there will always be people in the world that want only their own views and goals to be accepted by others. They are willing to do anything and go to any lengths to eliminate those who are different or disagree with them. Philosophies such as those have started wars, killed millions and are slow to fade away. This story was a good example of that and though it was fiction it was a good illustration of what happens even today. I was reminded of what is going on in our country even now in 2020. May God protect us from repeating history!

Embracing the Lemonade Life“I loved the story in this book and for that alone I would have rated it with 5 stars. But the inappropriate language and suggestive content were not to my liking. The narration was okay, but there were times when I couldn't tell for several sentences who was speaking. I wish every aspect of the story had been as good as the story itself. Jake and Clara were wonderful. I was reminded that we all must remember that life is fragile and none of us know when our time to die may come. Live with no regrets as much as possible.

Fireflies“This was an interesting book and I enjoyed the story. I viewed it more of a fantasy than things that could really happen. The characters were quite lovable and I liked that the family stood together even when it was a frightening situation for them.

The Liar’s Gallery“There are a lot of twists and turns in this mystery which made it a real "page turner". I was barely able to stop listening to do my daily chores and listened in the evening until I was so tired I couldn't stay awake. The way Mr. Lazar details the scenes and activities in their family adds so much to the story. It reminds me of Charles Dickens' style, one of my favorite authors. The descriptions make me feel like I know the characters personally and am actually viewing the scenes. I love a good mystery! Mr. Lazar writes some of the best!”
Her Alaskan Pilot“This was a sweet read. I liked the way the characters worked out their differences once they discovered they cared for one another. I'd be interested in reading/listening to more by Ms. Thomas. This was my first by this author.”
The Eye of Adoption“This was an interesting book. I knew some about adoption, but this was an eye-opener. It was a little slow in places; informative overall. Not a bad listen.”
