So sweet!, June 17, 2011
As cheesy as this one sounds, (which is not necessarily a bad thing! haha), it was quite adorable. I love that the "hero" was a police officer. I loved how he made the girl feel so special and loved. There were a few great quotes from this book:
"She had no experience of crushing on someone like that. She hadn't realized before how frightening it was to look a dream in the face. To realize how much it could change your life, and how much it could demand of you."
"With the way the light shone on her, she looked spotlighted, as if a painter had rendered her that way, the center of someone's world."
Aww!

Healing Bond Ever After, January 7, 2011
This is actually my 1st Inspirational Romance but to me it's a really good book to read. I love stories of people with integrity overcoming hardships, and this book, each having their own past to contend with but with each meeting result in increasing common understanding of one another that only few can understand. It is both Beautiful and Moving.

McKaslin's Series 4- Book 1, December 3, 2011
Blind-Date Bride by Jillian Hart
Book 1 in Series 4 of the McKaslin's
Brianna McKaslin and her twin sister, Brandilyn, have come through a lot together. A criminal father and a drunken mother left them with a bleak childhood. Brianna has survived a shooting but she suffers from the post traumatic stress. And now she is facing her third no show blind-date in a row. But she is still optimistic that one day God will give her the family life she did not have growing up. She works in her cousin Ava's bakery and goes to school to become a teacher. Life is still good, even after this third no show and her car being stolen while she waited, because she met Max Decker. Another man with a no show blind date. A man who was probably to good for someone like her.
Max Decker finally gave in and let a buddy from work set him up with another blind-date. Alice was a no show but he got to know Brianna while he waited. And she stayed with him long after he left her. Max had moved to Montana when a Detective job came up. He had his brother Marcus living with him and he believed that Montana would keep Marcus out of trouble unlike in LA. Max was not looking for a relationship. After a betrayal from a woman a decade ago, he learned. Somehow Bree got under his radar but he could never see such a beautiful girl like her seeing anything good in him.
Two people with troubled pasts who believe they are not good enough for each other. Can they trust God with their futures and move forward to where He leads them or will the darkness of the past blind them from a bright future?
Bree and Brandi have been in some of the previous McKaslin books with their cousins. This is the first book in series four. The children of Mick McKaslin. Bree and Brandi are twins, Colbie is a half sister and only child and Hunter, Luke & Brooke are from Mick's first marriage. Jillian will be releasing three books in 2012, Brooke, Luke & Hunter's story. If you like series than for sure you will want to read Blind-Date Bride first.
