Missed one, July 15, 2023

Too many distractions today. I forgot about the plan to buy book 2 to go along with one of today’s new books. I could say oh well and move on but that idea doesn’t work for me this time. Here it is…

Poppy’s Path to Love: Women’s Fiction – Inspirational Romance (Great Smoky Mountain Getaways Book 2)

When a job for a full-time nanny/housekeeper is posted in Langdon, NC, Poppy Delacorte is quick to apply. Jumping at the opportunity to move after a public shaming by her deceitful ex-boyfriend, she accepts the offer.

When she arrives at her destination, Poppy learns there’s been some kind of mix-up at the agency and her new employer refuses to hire her because she’s not a gray-haired older woman. Something about younger women working for him and vying for the next Mrs. Jordan Perry position. But before she can even make arrangements to figure out what to do or where to go next, Jordan seeks her out and offers her a temporary arrangement since he has no one to watch Katrina.

Poppy is secretly relieved with the reprieve, vowing to be the perfect nanny/housekeeper so that it becomes a permanent arrangement.

Jordan leaves on business—which in turn, leaves Poppy and Katrina trying to muddle through their new relationship and life. Except she doesn’t always get it right, discovering that teaching and nannying are two very different jobs.

Will Poppy need to move on and keeping searching for the place where she belongs and God’s plan for her life, or could this be where she finally puts down roots?

We were settled on Romance in the last post but a must-have mystery has surfaced. A change to a different genre won’t be a bad thing. This is book three and since we’ve read book two in this series it’s an opportunity that can’t be missed

Dangerous Depths (Aloha Reef Series Book 3)

Sometimes life’s most precious treasure lies at Dangerous Depths.

Leia ditched a promising medical career to settle on a secluded island of Hawaii. She ditched Bane, too, and he’s come to the island to find out why. He’s also in search of a fortune rumored to lie offshore. But an act of sabotage that pushes Bane closer to Leia plunges them both into a tangle of emotion—just as a series of threatening events grip the island.

Theft, a friend’s death, a bizarre intruder, hints of a second treasure . . . and even murder—how can they sort it all out when everyone on the island has something to hide?

I’m quitting now, before things get any more out of hand. Between the two posts today we have 12 new books.

I’m between reads so it’s wide open for the chance to pick one of them next. I’ll let you know how it goes. Poppy’s Path looks interesting.
