Never Forgotten

Simon left his home in England in a fury.  He was not marrying Georgina. No way. He was going to America to escape his father's expectations.  He didn't look back. But life events change and he found himself right where he started.

Georgina couldn't forget what happened in the library.  She needed to escape but fear kept her from moving forward.

A great story.  It had twists and turns in every chapter.  I never could tell what was going to happen next.  

I have read some of Hannah Linder's books before.  She never disappoints and she always delivers.

It was difficult for me to say goodbye to Simon and Georgina.  But I'm more than positive the next book of Ms. Linder's will be just as great.

I was given a complimentary copy of this book by Celebrate Lit.

About the Book

Book: Never Forgotten

Author: Hannah Linder

Genre: Christian Fiction / Historical / Regency Romance

Release date: November, 2024

All He Wanted was Justice. All She Wanted was His Heart.

Georgina Whitmore, not accustomed to any man being unaffected by her charms, is plagued with the disappearance and rejection of Simon Fancourt. Twelve years later, Mr. Fancourt returns to British society with two children and a mad hunger for justice.

Racing against time, Simon works to uncover the men responsible for his wife’s horrific murder, protect his children, and fulfill his father’s unexpected will by marrying Georgina—the last thing in the world he wants to do.

Though her heart throbs to accept, she would rather lose him again than have his name without his love. She denies his proposal of matrimony, knowing it will cost them both. But as tragedies unravel and secret enemies narrow their sights on Simon, Georgina risks her life—and her reputation—to protect him and the children. Will the danger scorch them alive? Or will it, for the first time, open his heart to her?

More from Hannah

We seldom know anyone. I mean, really know them. We brush hands with people, laugh with them, tell them our stories, listen to theirs, and think we know them.

But we don’t.

We have no idea what thrums in their heart, late at night, when they burrow their face into a wet pillow. We have no idea what they fear. We have no idea what beautiful thoughts dance in their mind, or what ugly mysteries harden like lava in the pit of their chest.

“We all have secrets,” Georgina Whitmore, our heroine in Never Forgotten, once said to Mr. Simon Fancourt. He didn’t understand. He didn’t even suspect.

Because he’d sat beside her a hundred times.

Played whist with her.

Rode alongside her in summer carriage rides.

Smiled at her—emptily—and cringed a little when she smiled back.

If you had asked him, at seventeen years old, if he knew Georgina Whitmore, he would have been earnest in his answer. “Yes.” Lovely. Soft. Teasing. Ridiculous. Shallow. All attributes he professed to know only by their brief, passionless courtship.

She was more than he had ever noticed.

Deeper than he had imagined.

Perhaps if he had looked longer, prodded harder, he might have seen a glimpse of what dwelled in the heart of the woman he was betrothed to marry. How long is too long? How many years may blindness, ignorance, and prejudice be forgiven? Even if Simon finally discovers the loveliness of her heart, will it be too late?

If you walk away from Never Forgotten with nothing else, I hope you feel challenged to look deeper. As you’re brushing hands, laughing, telling stories—I hope you stare into people’s eyes and search for a bit of their soul.

We’re all more than what we seem.

We all have secrets.

Like Simon, you may discover the people around you are more beloved, dear, and wonderful than you ever imagined.

A Better Tomorrow for the East End Library Girls

Cordelia, Mavis and Jane were known as the Library Girls.  But they were so much more than that.  Each played such an important role in the community that they lived. 

You will love each one of them.  Cordelia or Lady Cordelia worked hard to make the library a place for all. Mavis fights for better housing for her friends and neighbors. Jane attempts to get along with her difficult mother in law. 

How hard it must have been to live in those times. Loved ones off fighting in different countries. Sirens going off and having to rush off to the air raid shelters not knowing if your house will still be standing when you come out. Foods rationed and shortages everywhere. They did the best they could to survive. 

Thank goodness the Library Girls had each other, the people in their community and the library. 

I received this book from Boldwood Books to review.

A Better Tomorrow For The East End Library Girls

As the war nears its end, the library girls rally for their community...

With London still in the grip of war, Cordelia, Mavis, and Jane find themselves facing a new challenge. Determined to make a difference, the librarians band together to organise rent strikes, standing up against dirty landlords and unfair practices.

Meanwhile, with the arrival of American GIs in the East End, Cordelia is presented with a temptation too irresistible to bear. Should she follow her head or her heart – stay faithful to her beloved Robert fighting abroad, or enjoy the brief respite from the constant air raids and destruction?

As the women fight for what’s right, the promise of a better tomorrow begins to take shape. But will their efforts be enough to secure a better life for their community?

A stirring tale of courage and camaraderie, perfect for fans of Lizzie Lane, Elaine Roberts, and Lesley Eames.

HIDDEN SECRETS

About the Book

Book: Hidden Secrets: A Thriller (Mirror Estate Series Book Four)

Author: S.F. Baumgartner

Genre: Christian Mystery, Thriller

Release date: September 24, 2024

Abducted. Trapped. Hunted. Grace Benson must find a way out… or die trying.

After her harrowing escape from a kill order, Grace thought she’d return to a normal life, only to be abducted from her home.

Meanwhile, FBI investigations into the murders of a congressman and his staff uncover a shocking link to Grace’s abduction, threatening international stability.

Desperate to survive, Grace allies with an unlikely partner—a child who knows the bunker’s secrets—but as they navigate the treacherous tunnel system, a misplaced step echoes through the corridors, alerting a deranged captor who now closes in, gun in hand.

If you like Alex Cross, Gabriel Allon, you will like this unpredictable, fast-paced suspense thriller.

Hidden Secrets Book Excerpt 6

“The story about me growing up in a foster home was a lie.” Javier kept his scowl fixed on the bar’s worn surface.

Simon blinked. “Okay, why? You and your folks don’t get along?”

Javier hung his head, a gesture heavy with more than just denial. “It’s worse. The business, uh, I can’t get involved in the business.”

Simon puzzled over this. Sure, it wasn’t uncommon for children to shy away from a family business, but to fabricate a story of foster care? That was a drastic step. Most didn’t lie about it.

“My mother agreed not to spill the beans. But now…” Javier rubbed his eyes. “I don’t know what to do.”

Not knowing the whole situation, Simon didn’t comment.

Javier sighed again, a sound heavy with unsaid words. “I may follow your footsteps.”

Simon’s resignation from his senatorial position months earlier had been a decision born of necessity, a path chosen amid a thicket of complexities. While Javier wasn’t a senator, he was a US congressman. Was he facing a similar crossroads?

“You’re thinking about resigning?” Simon kept his voice steady but his heart not quite so.

“I can’t see another way out.”

“What’s the problem? Anything I can do?”

About the Author

S.F. Baumgartner writes fast-paced Christian suspense thrillers. Book 1 of her Mirror Estate series, Living Secrets, was selected as one of the Top Picks in the thriller category at Killer Nashville, 2024. Her love for writing comes second only to her love of reading. When she’s not busy writing about complex characters, secretive operatives, and relentless agents, she spends her time binge-watching crime TV shows, such as NCIS, or playing with her cats. If you enjoy James Patterson’s style—specifically short chapters—you’ll love her Mirror Estate series.

 

A Healing Touch

An Amish woman named Fern was quite wise.  She was a woman of few words but what she did say was powerful and to the point. Bea was hesitant to meet Fern.  Was she ready to hear what she had to say?

Sometimes we spend too much time thinking of the negatives than the positives.  We don't think of what we could gain but what we can lose.  This was what some of the characters in this wonderful book thought.  It can be scary to enter a new relationship after you have been hurt or lost a loved one.  You might feel it is too risky to go for the new job or to try for a promotion. 

An Amish girl, Anna, was willing to take the risk. Her mother was not. Conflict can occur when there is a difference of opinion. This could lead to heartbreak.

I enjoyed the book.  The characters were realistic. I always love reading Suzanne Woods Fisher's books.  

Five stars.

Bestselling author Suzanne Woods Fisher wrote her first novel in sixth grade, about Pompeii, a dog, and the erupting volcano (terrible ending!) and, from that point on, she was hooked on the writing life. Curiously, she doesn’t remember anyone, ever, telling her she was a talented writer. She just loved to write. (And she worked hard at the craft. She still does.)

College happened, work, then marriage, children, a sprinkling of corporate transfers, and Suzanne kept plugging away at freelancing for several magazines. (Four kids = lots of great material.)

As her children headed off to college, Suzanne had the time to get serious about writing. She wrote a little World War II love story, Copper Star, which was published by Vinspire, a small royalty press. The novel won some awards, and it also caught the eye of a wonderful agent. And that’s when things started to happen.

Joyce Hart of the Hartline Literary Agency knew of an editor at Revell Books who was looking for an author who had a genuine connection to the Plain People. Knowing that Suzanne’s grandfather was raised Plain, Joyce connected her to that editor. The result was Amish Peace: Simple Wisdom for a Complicated World, a finalist for the ECPA Book of the Year.

Thirty-some books later (in a variety of genres—historical fiction, contemporary women’s, and Amish fiction), Suzanne is still writing for that same editor at Revell Books. And she still loves to write.

Wartime Arrivals at Harbour House

The family was in turmoil when Jonathon Roby announced to his family that they were moving to a small village community in the country.  How could they give up all that they know and love?

Elizabeth, his wife, was making it much more difficult than it needed to be. 

Elizabeth was very difficult to like. She was detached and cold.  Was she a product of her own upbringing? Her husband, Jonathon, was quite the opposite.  Thank goodness for their childrens' sakes. How in the heck did those two get married?

Valuable lessons were learned.  Sacrifices had to be made. But with these sacrifices, the family did learn what was most important.

At times, I just wanted to shake Elizabeth.  She was driving me crazy. I might have left her in London.  

An interesting story set  during WWII. 

I received this book from Boldwood Books to review.

B is for Bonnet

I can not even imagine how difficult it would be to become Amish.  All that you know- gone.  The things you take advantage of- gone.  

But there is so much more to gain. Jonny had much to learn. Treva had much to give.

This is the second book in this series by Shelley Shepard Gray. I read the first- A is for Amish.  I have enjoyed both books. And I do look forward to the next.

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Shelley Shepard Gray writes Amish and Inspirational romances for Simon & Schuster, and Kensington, Harlequin, and contemporary women’s fiction for Blackstone Publishing. With over a million books in print, and translated into more than a dozen languages, her novels have been Holt Medallion winners and Inspirational Readers Choice and Carol finalists. 

Shelley has been featured in the Philadelphia Enquirer, Washington Post, Time Magazine, and USA Today. She has also been interviewed on NPR as well as numerous regional radio stations. Publishers Weekly calls her Walnut Creek series “A slow-burning, enjoyable romance… Embedded in this quaint story is a poignant message about the importance of community, compassion, and doing what’s right rather than what’s easy.” 

Shelley has hosted several well-attended ‘Girlfriend Getaways’ for Amish reading fans. Her most recent Girlfriend Getaway, hosted with bestselling novelists Amy Clipston and Suzanne Woods Fisher in Sugarcreek, Ohio, was filmed by BuzzFeed and highlighted on NetFlix’s Follow This episode on the popularity of Amish fiction.

Before writing romances, Shelley lived in Texas and Colorado, where she taught school and earned her bachelor’s degree in English literature and later obtained her master’s degree in educational administration. She now lives in southern Colorado near her grown children, walks her dachshunds, bakes too much, and writes full time. 

The Foyles Bookshop Girls' Promise

You can't marry him!  No, don't do it.  Right from the beginning I was heavily engrossed in the lives of Rosie, her friends and family.

Rosie had quite a lot on her plate. She did all that she could for her community.  She really loved working with her childhood friend, Sam. She enjoyed her volunteer work. While giving her time and attention to others, she soon realized what her future may look like.

She experienced drama and needed answers before she could find happiness.

A great story of the sacrifices families made during WWII.  I read this quickly. I couldn't put it down. I hope that there will be another book.  I have to know more about the residents.

The Foyles Bookshop Girls' Promise

London, 1918: war rages on, but the girls of London’s Foyles bookshop always have a place to feel safe.

Rosie Burrows loves being part of the Foyles team, and outwardly, she’s a happy young woman, engaged to the love of her life. But inside, Rosie faces a horrible dilemma. When Alfie enlisted, she promised to wait for him to return from France. And she has waited, quietly preparing for him to come home so they can marry. But for years her letters to him have gone unanswered, and now she doesn’t know where she stands.

To keep occupied, Rosie starts volunteering at the local school. She loves reading to the children, and takes solace in her growing friendship with the kind and gentle class teacher. But Rosie knows she can’t allow herself to develop feelings for Sam – she gave her word.

But why hasn’t Alfie answered her letters? Has he changed his mind about her? And how long should she wait for a man who may never come back?

Pretending to be the Mountain Man's Wife

Brothers of Sapphire Ranch is a series I have enjoyed.  I believe this is the 9th book.  I have read everyone.  I wouldn't have missed any.  I know that I am in for a treat. Every story has been entertaining without profanity and x -rated story lines. I really appreciate that.

Gil Coulter is searching for his brother.  During this search, he meets Jess McPharland.  She is searching for freedom from her father and the men who run the mining operation. 

This is an action packed story. Gil and Jess find themselves battling the evils amongst them while finding love and acceptance.

I could not put this book down.  I loved the story.  I have become fond of the Coulter Family.

About the Book

Book: Pretending to be the Mountain Man’s Wife (Brothers of Sapphire Ranch Book 6)

Author: Misty M. Beller

Genre:Christian Historical Romance

Release date: November 19, 2024

In the wild mountains of the Montana Territory, the Coulter ranch is a place of family, second chances…and a hidden fortune.

Determined to find his missing brother and catch the elusive mastermind behind the theft of his family’s precious sapphires, Gil Coulter embarks on a solo mission to the remote town where the criminal is rumored to reside. As Gil scours the surrounding wilderness for the thief’s hidden lair, he crosses paths with a captivating young woman who harbors secrets of her own.

Jess McPharland has spent her life hidden in the mountains, doing her best to stay separate from her family’s business. Yet the secret she’s just discovered will change her life forever. She offers a silent prayer, pleading for a man to help her conceal the truth she’s only just discovered. As if in answer, Gil Coulter rides through the trees, seeking the very criminal Jess calls Father. Now she must find a way to ask this stranger for the ultimate favor—to pose as her husband and shield her from the consequences of a change she won’t be able to hide much longer.

As Gil and Jess navigate the treacherous landscape and the greater danger from her father and his cronies, they find themselves caught in a web of danger, deception, and unexpected attraction. With each passing moment, the stakes grow higher, and the line between pretense and truth blurs. Will the love growing between them be enough to protect Jess’s secret and lead them to the justice Gil seeks, or will the truth shatter everything they’ve risked their lives to build?

From a USA Today bestselling author comes a mountain saga filled with high-stakes adventure, a pretend marriage, a secret baby, and love that heals wounded hearts.

More from Misty

In Pretending to be the Mountain Man’s Wife, the heroine and her father live in a cave which is part of an intricate catacomb hidden inside Montana mountain.

I LOVED researching cave systems, especially those in Montana, and I was amazed at how many extensive tunnels and caverns have been discovered!

One of the most well-known is Lewis and Clark Caverns State Park, located between Butte and Bozeman. This spectacular limestone cave system features a series of caverns adorned with incredible rock formations. These days, visitors can take guided tours to marvel at the intricate stalactites, stalagmites, columns, and helictites that have formed over thousands of years. The cave is also home to several species of bats.

Another notable cave system is the Bighorn Caverns, situated in the Pryor Mountains south of Billings. This complex network of caves extends for over 14 miles, making it one of the most significant cave systems in the state. Experienced cavers can explore winding passages, underground streams, and vast chambers with unique mineral formations.

The Bighorn Caverns are very similar to how I imagine the cave system was that Jess lived in. As amazing as the tunnels are to explore, I’m not sure I’d want to live in such darkness. What about you?

I pray you enjoy Gil and Jess’s story in Pretending to be the Mountain Man’s Wife! J

Blessings!

Seeking Simon

 

Dottie had no hope for a happily ever after.  Her brother took off. Her father was sick.  Her childhood friend was gone- killed in the war.  But everything changed when Simon showed up at her door.

GOD knows what he is doing. He knew Dottie's dream. He had a plan.

Simon wasn't looking for marriage or even a future in Georgia.  But then he met Dottie. His life changed at that moment.

There were some disturbing parts. It was based in the Civil War times. Much was lost. Men treating others cruelly because they have a different opinion. Sound familiar?

I finished this book quite quickly.  I was "Seeking" a happy ending for Simon and Dottie. 

Thank you Susan Sloan for giving me the opportunity to read this wonderful book.
