Book Review: Until You Found Us by Elle Christopher

 


Until You Found Us by Elle Christopher 
4.5 Stars 

This was so great! We have a single Mom, Alice, with twins, Jack and Lucy, and those kiddos are the BEST.  Alice felt so realistic as a mom trying to keep her flower shop afloat and carrying weight of disappointment and unanswered prayers. Johnny comes in as a guarded firefighter. He saves her son from being hit by a car, among many other things and their lives intersect together in the Southern small town of Tunbridge.

They get to know each other and it was full of emotional depth, good faith elements, them going to church, I just really enjoyed it. Faith was depicted in a community type of way and I loved that because we do not see that enough in books sometimes.

I also appreciated the growth and grief shown. The town was super cozy too! 

I really like Elle's writing style, it flows well and you're really invested in the characters. I would recommend to anyone who likes a slice of life, contemporary romance, with Christian themes.

Thank you to the author for sending me a complimentary ebook to read and review. All thoughts are my own.

Content: No language or spice, very slow burn romance. The couple shares a bed but there is no on page intimacy beyond kisses.

Book Review: Fearless by Lauren Roberts

Fearless by Lauren Roberts Book 3 in the Powerless Trilogy 3 Stars OK, let’s dive into the review! I have sat with this all day and I think I’m going to land on 3 stars for this one. Books 1 and 2 were solid 4 star reads for me, and while my experience reading book 3 felt like a 4-star moment....mainly because I was in that UNWELL STATUS and absolutely NEEDED to know what was happening....it didn’t quite hold up in the end. You know those "drop everything and read" moments? That was ME! Her writing is great and addictive - but looking at the book itself, it felt a little all over the place. The last 30% especially got kind of random and, at times, just plain ridiculous. I questioned some events going on that made me like...WAITTTT WHAT? HA! That said, I still had a blast with this series. It is definitely one that will stay close to my heart because I adored Kai and Paedyn so much. Love their romance and banter - it's what has made the trilogy for me honestly. Kai really ...

Vlog to come out Monday April 28th 7:00 a.m. central "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38-39 The Voice We Find by Nicole Deese 5 STARS  Wow. Let's just say I have found another favorite book of 2025 and of ALL time. Nicole Deese tells powerful stories. Plain and simple. She is a top favorite of all time and I will forever recommend her books! Let's get into the review: The Voice We Find is technically book 3 in the Fog Harbor Book Series, but you can read it as a standalone book. They do not connect in the storylines. Book 1:  The Words We Lost Book 2: The Roads We Follow Book 3: The Voice We Find The Voice We Find doesn't just give you a good story....it gives you something much deeper: hope, healing and the beautiful remi...
