Book Review: Wild Montana Skies by Susan May Warren

 


Wild Montana Skies - Susan May Warren (Book 1 in the Montana Rescue Series) - 3.5 Stars

This is the start to the Montana Rescue series and I enjoyed my time with it. I was listening to the audiobook but the lady's singing pulled me out the story some, so I switched to the e-book at the end. In this story, we follow Search and Rescue helicopter pilot Kacey Fairing who is back home in Mercy Falls, Montana and her ex, Country Music Star Ben King. Ben left his past behind when he moved to Nashville 13 years ago to start his career. But when his father is injured, he comes back home and realizes things were not exactly how he left them 13 years ago. We quickly find out Ben and Kacey had a daughter together and this is the first time Ben learns about her because of so many misunderstandings years ago. Ben and Kacey work together for many different situations throughout the book and we see their relationship start back up in this second chance romance story. Meanwhile, we have a side story of Ian and Sierra (who work together) have their mixed feelings story going on throughout this book as the search for Esme (Ian's Niece) and Dante continue....

Overall I enjoyed this story but did get a little frustrated with the Ian and Sierra side story. I know I need to read the next book, but there was so much back and forth with them thrown in the middle of Kacey and Ben's story. I think I would have rather had more of that in the second book with them but I understand we are setting up the scene for book 2 here. Wasn't sure how I felt about Ben at first but really liked the ending. The faith content was great in this book. The characters really trusted the Lord and even when they questioned, by the end, they realized He was there with them in the situations they were going through.

"Having faith is the bravest thing we can do. It's the unwavering confidence that God loves us. That 
although we can't see the road ahead, we can see God."

I will definitely be continuing on in the series.
3.5/5

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...
