Every Bird That Falls
Two Sparrows for a Penny #3
By Sara Davison

Eight years ago, Jae-won Lin and her foster sisters were torn apart when they were targeted by traffickers. Jae managed to escape, but the question was, where was she all those years? And why didn't she reach out for help? These are the questions that Tag Monroe wants answers to as soon as he finds her.

The night Tag broke up with her was the worst of her life, but when her foster sisters decided to make sure they weren't separated, she experienced a new worst in her life. Traffickers found them and grabbed her sisters. Jae managed to get away, and her life as she knew it was set on an altogether different path. 

When Jae finally discovers the truth, her life is in danger. But lies have a way of isolating you, and until Jae can break free of them, she will be divided from those whom she loves best. 

This is the third and final book in the Two Sparrows for a Penny series, but it can also be read as a standalone title. It is a contemporary book about human trafficking and grooming. It is well-written and has two threads coming together to give a complete picture. Tag's portion is told in the present day, while Jae's unfolds slowly, giving us glimpses of what she went through over the years. This would make an excellent book club selection as the various aspects of the book would definitely lend itself to much discussion.

I was provided a complimentary copy of this book with no expectations but that I provide my honest opinion. All thoughts expressed are my own.

The Words We Lost ~ Review

The Words We Lost

Fog Harbor Romance #1

By Nicole Deese

Ingrid Erikson has lost her way. Since the death of her best friend Cecelia (Cece) Campbell she just been surviving. She can't concentrate and her work has been suffering since, of course her work was also directly tied to Cece who was an international bestselling author. But with Cece's death she just can't do her job as an acquisitions editor for a struggling publisher. And she's been given an ultimatum find Cece's final book or lose your job. Ouch and totally unsympathetic. 

But finding Cece's final work means returning home and facing the man she thought she'd have a future with. Joel Campbell never wanted to lose Ingrid, but trying to protect her did just that. Now they will have to work together and revisit the past and its painful memories. But the search to discover Cece's final work, if it was ever written, will change everything, forcing Ingrid and Joel to work together.

This book is an emotional one as Ingrid deals with her losses, yes more than one. But Cece's was the one that affected her so unexpectedly because it highlighted just how much she had lost. This is a book it is hard to review because of the emotional aspect of it. One needs to read it to fully experience just what Ingrid was feeling. But she was also disconnected from fully experiencing life because of the trauma she was still dealing with. This book speaks to one on a personal level, but how much depends on the losses one has experienced in one's own life. This is a story that each reader must experience for oneself. The Words We Lost showcases the author's craft with words as she moves one in unexpected ways as the story unfolds. In my opinion this would make an excellent book club or community read selection.

I was provided a complimentary copy with no expectations but that I provide my honest opinion. All thoughts expressed are my own.

About the Book:

Three friends. 

Two broken promises. 

One missing manuscript.

As a senior acquisitions editor for Fog Harbor Books in San Francisco, Ingrid Erikson has rejected many a manuscript for lack of defined conflict and dramatic irony--two elements her current life possesses in spades. In the months following the death of her childhood best friend and international bestselling author Cecelia Campbell, Ingrid has not only lost her ability to escape into fiction due to a rare trauma response, but she's also desperate to find the closure she's convinced will come with Cecelia's missing final manuscript.

After Ingrid jeopardizes her career, she fears her future will remain irrevocably broken. But then Joel Campbell--the man who shattered her belief in happily-ever-afters--offers her a sealed envelope from his late cousin, Cecelia, asking Joel and Ingrid to put their differences aside and retrieve a mysterious package in their coastal Washington hometown.

Honoring Cecelia's last request will challenge their convictions and test their loyalties, but through it all, will Ingrid and Joel be brave enough to uncover a twice-in-a-lifetime love?
