What a good day! We have several new books and I’m excited to see them. The first one is with an author we’ve not seen until now and I have to say it’s lovely to meet new people this way.

I don’t think I’ve ever read a story with an outline quite like this one. It will be interesting to see what it is all about.

Justice by Emily Conrad

Jake thought he was meant to marry Brooklyn, but now she’s pregnant, and he had nothing to do with it.

As Brooklyn wrestles with questions about what her pregnancy means and how it will affect her relationship with Jake, she can’t bring herself to tell him the truth.

To make matters worse, if the man who owns the bookstore across from Jake’s coffee shop, has anything to do with it, the baby will ruin them both.

Can Jake and Brooklyn overcome the obstacles thrown in their path, and finally find the truth in God’s love and in each other?

This next one is book two in the series and we have been fortunate enough to have read book one a year ago. I can’t remember what I thought about it though.

Mulberry Hollow (A Riverbend Romance Book 2)

When a handsome handyman faces a medical emergency on the Appalachian trail, his sudden appearance in town challenges an ambitious doctor’s plan to remain single for life.

Avery Robinson decided to be a physician after helplessly watching her mother lose a battle with a terrible disease. Now at risk of developing the same illness, Avery guards her heart from love. She’s driven to protect her loved ones as a workaholic doctor in the tiny mountain town of Riverbend Gap, North Carolina.

Contractor Wes Garrett is hiking the Appalachian trail, in memory of the man who died saving his life, when an illness racks his body. After an agonizing fifteen-mile hike to Avery’s clinic, he collapses on her doorstep. He recovers to find himself in debt again—but this time to a beautiful doctor.

When he decides to help her renovate a rundown carriage house, the obstacles to their attraction sprout like weeds—starting with the woman waiting for Wes at the end of the trail. Will he be able to relinquish the debt he owes his best friend? And will Avery find the courage to risk everything for love?

This second book in Denise Hunter’s popular Riverbend Romance series explores what it might be like to live fearlessly and free.

That’s it for now, folks. Hopefully these two will be all we hope they will be for a great reading experience.

The finished pile is building up pretty high so I will be back to share some of them soon if all goes well.
