Book Review: A Novel Proposal by Denise Hunter

 


A Novel Proposal - Denise Hunter - 4 Stars - A perfect beach read!

This was such a fun, refreshing, light contemporary romance and would be a perfect beach read! I enjoyed the characters, the writing aspect, the little free library, the romance writing 101 bits at the beginning of the chapters and the little mystery they followed surrounding the engagement ring added a nice touch to force them to bond. Some parts were a little predictable, but overall, such a cute, clean romance! I listened to the audiobook, and I was thoroughly entertained! 4 stars.

This book follows Sadie, an author of westerns, who loses her writing contract and is asked to try her hand at writing a romance story. She has never been in love and has no idea where to start with this novel so she goes to this little beach house to get away so she can be inspired to write her story. In comes the next-door neighbor in the little duplex she’s in, Sam. He’s been through a tough breakup about a year ago and hasn’t been looking for love since. They start to get close after Sadie enlists Sam to help her with this situation surrounding an engagement ring. Sam says he will help her as long as she agrees to be his +1 at his cousin (and ex-girlfriends) wedding. Sparks fly and the rest is history…..

Such a sweet romance and I’m excited to read more of Denise Hunter’s books in the future!

Book Review: All My Secrets by Lynn Austin

  All My Secrets - Lynn Austin - 5 Stars All My Secrets by Lynn Austin is a multigenerational story of 3 women that explores first loves, grief, high society lifestyle, history, the Christian faith and the essence of what matters most in life. I highly recommend this book as I was fully immersed in the story and characters.  Set during the Gilded Age in New York, we see the strength of the Stanhope women following the passing of Arthur Stanhope. Left uncertain of their future paths, Junietta, Sylvia, and Adelaide grapple with the ramifications of Arthur's will and the looming uncertainty surrounding their family's estate. As they navigate through the aftermath, family secrets begin to unravel, shedding light on their intertwined history. I absolutely loved this story. I was very invested in the audiobook narration and learning about Sylvia and Junietta's past. We see the beauty of the Gospel in this story several times as our characters grapple with their past decisions, mi
