The Hawaiian Quilt by Wanda E. Brunstetter and Jean Brunstetter is all about personal growth, and the mixing of cultures in the beautiful setting of Hawaii. Once you start reading it you will not want to put it down.

I love the author's ability to weave a story that is so realistic I found myself living the story. It was so easy to get into the tale and identify with the storyline. Wanda E. Brunstetter's down to earth style of writing made the story come alive to this reader. There are no limits to God's plan for your future and this story re-enforces that truth to the reader.

Wanda E. Brunstetter has a knack of developing characters that are realistic and easy to identify with. Through their personal growth and adventure they force the reader to look inward and grow. I found it very easy to identify with the characters and follow along their individual storylines.

I really liked The Hawaiian Quilt by Wanda E. Brunstetter and Jean Brunstetter and I highly recommend this book to all readers.

Bellanok: An Urgent Quest by Ralene Burke is another excellent example of Christian fantasy that meets all the criteria of a great fantasy book. It is action packed and fast paced.

 

The author continues developing her storyline that was begun in The Reluctant Savior and never misses a beat. The tale will grab you and fill you with excitement. It is full of action and plot twist that make it a fun book to read. And, it is fun to read a "clean" book for a change without all the language issues.

 

The cast of characters developed by Ralene Burke are deep and easy to get behind. They are real and very believable which makes the tale come alive.

 

I enjoyed reading Bellanok: An Urgent Quest by Ralene Burke and highly recommend this book to all readers.

Do you love reading books with mystery and intrigue, with a Christian theme? Then you will love reading Vanished by Barbara Ann Derksen. This fast paced novel will keep you glued to its pages.

The author has done a great job of developing a storyline that is fast past and full of plot twist and turns, which will keep you on your toes. Just when I thought I had the plot figured out, off it went in another direction. Even with all this, the book was easy to read and follow.

I really like the characters Barbara Ann Derksen created for this book. They are both believable and real to life. It was easy to identify with them and follow them throughout the story.

I really liked Vanished by Barbara Ann Derksen and recommend it to all readers.

When You Come Home by Nancy Cavin Pitts is what reading a love story is all about. This book will, not only, pull at your heart strings, but will grab your heart and squeeze.

The author has developed a tale of pure and simple love in a young couple in the early 1940s. Nancy Cavin Pitts writing style weaves a story that will not let you put it down. I found myself not wanting to go to bed but continuing to read this beautiful story.

The characters developed by Nancy Cavin Pitts could be the kids next door. They are so real and believable, I found myself in the storyline as a friend. I love when I can become so involved in the story I can't get it out of my mind.

I really loved When You Come Home by Nancy Cavin Pitts and I highly recommend this book for all readers.

Rapture’s Rain by Chris Pennington is an action packed “end time” novel which added a different twist to your usual stories of the Rapture. I had a hard time putting this book down when I started reading it.

The author did a great job of developing a storyline that was both easy to follow, yet full of twist and turns which kept me glued to the book. His detail and storytelling style made the story come alive as very believable and realistic.

I like the way Chris Pennington developed his characters. I found them to be real and just like people I would meet in Anytown, USA. I found myself getting caught up in their stories and trials.

I really enjoyed Rapture’s Rain by Chris Pennington and highly recommend it to all readers.

Having read several of Michael J. Webb’s books I knew this one would be an exciting read, but that turned out to be an understatement. Infernal Gates by Michael J. Webb will leave you exhausted from excitement. It is full of action and adventure.

With every new turn and twist the author builds on the intrigue which demands your continued reading. The storyline is well developed yet it is easy to follow. I found it hard to put this book down once I started it.

This is the type of story that you can put yourself into as an unseen character and really get involved as the story progresses. I love when this happens as it makes the story come alive to me as a reader.

I really like the way Michael J. Webb developed each of the characters in the story. They were both real and personal. It was easy to develop an attachment to them.

I really liked Infernal Gates by Michael J. Webb and I highly recommend this book to all readers.

I have read a lot of books that brought a tear to my eye, but Bones of My Brother by J. Frank Dunkin actually had me crying in a couple of places. I truly lost myself in this book.
The author’s style of storytelling created a storyline and world that was so real I found it impossible to stop reading. His choice of words and descriptors captivated me and transported me back to the time of my own youth.
You see, I grew up in the south in the fifties and sixties and this book brought back so many memories. The characters and their accents could have been from my childhood.
J. Frank Dunkin did an excellent job of developing his characters and giving them life and personality. They were almost too real and believable. I got so attached to them and their story that I actually cried and laughed out loud along with them.
I really enjoyed Bones of My Brother by J. Frank Dunkin and I highly recommend it to all readers.

Empath by Becca J. Campbell is a great example of how to write an excellent adventure thriller. It has all the parts necessary to grab you by the seat of your pants and keep you glued to the book and this is exactly what it did to me.

The author did an excellent job of storytelling. She was able to weave a tail of intrigue and mystery involving, murder, heroes with special gifts, and action packed adventure. The book was easy to follow even with all the twist and turns. I soon found myself totally involved in the story.

Becca J. Campbell did a great job of developing characters that were both believable and real to life. It was easy to identify in the heroes and the heroine of the story. I was able to follow each character and grow close to them as the story progress.

I really like reading Empath by Becca J. Campbell and I highly recommend it to all readers.

The Master’s Quilt by Michael J Webb is an excellent historical novel dealing with the life of several players in the drama of Jesus’ crucifixion and the immediate years that followed.

The author did a great job of storytelling, developing a story that is both intriguing and sticks to what few historical truths are known of this period. The story was both realistic and easy to follow. I found it hard to put this book down once I started reading it.

Michael J Webb did an excellent job of developing his main characters, building on the known history and adding fiction to tell a story. It was easy to identify with them and feel the internal struggle they were going through.

I really enjoyed The Master’s Quilt by Michael J Webb and I highly recommend this book to all reader.
