Stone ~ Review with Giveaway

Stone

The Metcalfes #1

By Ronie Kendig

Scandal rocked his world and he's trying to rebuild it when he comes face-to-face with the past he'd just as soon forget and she needs his help. But can he get past the rage that has made a home in his heart?

Stone Metcalf was a man of honor until he made a mistake that drove him from office. His shame has forced him to hide away from those closest to him. But now he is faced with the woman he loved and her betrayal.

But everything isn't what it seems and Stone has a decision to make - will he allow the rage that has taken hold of him to continue or will he accept that he is not perfect and he had a role to play in his downfall? Lives depend on the choice he is about to make, including his own.

This book deals with sensitive issues, specifically human trafficking and the abusive manipulation that traps its victims. The issue is not glossed over but is handled in a way that I'm sure does not fully represent the horror that the victims find themselves trapped in.

About the Book:

She cost him everything. Now, he’s forced to protect her.

Stone Metcalfe embodies the Metcalfe legacy—blue eyes, an unfair amount of good looks, and hardcore patriot-laced character. But a foolish lapse in judgment dismantles his name and career. Humiliated and furious, he retreats to his mountain lodge to hide from media hounds and eke out a new life. However, one phone call from an old Army buddy upends Stone’s best-laid plans.

Supermodel Brighton Buchanan had designers and men eating out of her hand until a terrible mistake trapped her in the soul-eating world of human trafficking. Years later, she is used by her captors to take down the best man she’s ever known. The man she loves. Hope lost, she’s unexpectedly freed—and thrown back into Stone’s life. Being forgiven is out of the question considering how much he hates her.

Believing danger and her are one wrong move away, Brighton will do anything to keep him from being ruined again—even if it means going back to that life. As everything is falling apart and threats mount against Brighton, Stone realizes forgiveness is the easy part. Protecting her—and his heart—is another story.

Shadows of Swanford Abbey ~ Review

Shadows of Swanford Abbey

By Julie Klassen

Rebecca Lane has returned home after years away living as a lady's companion to support her brother. But word has reached that her brother's peculiar ways have worsened. But their is no room for her as her brother has spread out his work into her former room. But John has the perfect solution she can stay at Swanford Abbey and while there present his manuscript to Ambrose Oliver in hopes of getting his recommendation.

Reluctantly Rebecca agrees to John's scheme - though residing temporarily in the hotel long rumored to be haunted is the last thing she wants to do. But delivering her brother's manuscript is nigh on impossible and so Rebecca waits (and wastes funds she doesn't have). Soon she begins to see the rumored ghost that she heard tales of in her youth. 

Sir Frederick Wilford has hidden himself away from life since the death of his late wife. A betrayal has made him avoid unnecessary company but when his brother Thomas visits he finds himself agreeing to a stay at Swanford. There he comes upon the daughter of his late tutor. Rebecca Lane is no longer the young girl she was and he finds himself enjoying the chance to renew their acquaintance. 

But when a dark deed is perpetrated in the night questions are raised about all who are staying at the Swanford. And Sir Frederick as magistrate is dutybound to get answers. He knows someone is hiding something but the question is who is hiding what and whether or not it has a bearing on the murder he is investigating. 

 Shadows of Swanford Abbey is Historical Fiction with a good dose of mystery and a touch of romance. I love when books keep one in suspense as to who did it and this book did an excellent job at doing such. There are so many to suspect it is hard to narrow one's focus on who had the most compelling reason to take out Mr. Oliver. Julie Klassen does an excellent job at presenting a engaging and intriguing story. This is a standalone book as as such is an excellent introduction to this author if you have not yet read her. I have never been disappointed in any of Julie Klassen's books. I love how her characters are flawed and are aware of their failings and yet work to overcome the obstacles they have created in their lives. I would recommend this as an excellent book club selection.

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

About the Book:

Agatha Christie meets Jane Austen in this atmospheric Regency tale brimming with mystery, intrigue, and romance.

When Miss Rebecca Lane returns to her home village after a few years away, her brother begs for a favor: go to nearby Swanford Abbey and deliver his manuscript to an author staying there who could help him get published. Feeling responsible for her brother's desperate state, she reluctantly agrees.

The medieval monastery turned grand hotel is rumored to be haunted. Once there, Rebecca begins noticing strange things, including a figure in a hooded black gown gliding silently through the abbey's cloisters. For all its renovations and veneer of luxury, the ancient foundations seem to echo with whispers of the past--including her own. For there she encounters Sir Frederick--magistrate, widower, and former neighbor--who long ago broke her heart.

When the famous author is found murdered in the abbey, Sir Frederick begins questioning staff and guests and quickly discovers that several people held grudges against the man, including Miss Lane and her brother. Haunted by a painful betrayal in his past, Sir Frederick searches for answers but is torn between his growing feelings for Rebecca and his pursuit of the truth. For Miss Lane is clearly hiding something. . . .

Matrimony Mayhem and Murder

A Fiona Quinn Mystery #10

By C.S. McDonald

Fiona Quinn and Detective Nathan Landry are about to tie the knot officially. They've been secretly married for a while now but now it's time for a big ta-do for their families. 

To Fiona's relief she and Nathan's mom, Rita Landry hit it off from the start. And then it's time for the future in-laws to meet at a dinner at Fiona's house. And Nancy Quinn is determined to get Rita to spill any and all secrets of her life. For which Rita is well prepared - her profession has equipped her adequately.

But from there everything starts spinning out of control. The wedding planner is out of the picture and Chad (yep, Fiona's little brother) finds himself in a major, big-time mess. As Fiona would say YIKES. There's just one little problem Fiona finds herself on a plane leaving the good old US of A behind. Okay maybe two problems she's in handcuffs and there are just days until the wedding!

Will Nathan and Fiona make it to their big day? Or will murder and mayhem derail everything? This is one wedding you don't want to miss!

Matrimony Mayhem and Murder is the book you don't want to miss. The action isn't frantic but it is nonstop as each storyline progresses to the conclusion. As with all the Fiona Quinn books you can thoroughly enjoy it without having read the previous books - but once you've read one you'll want to enjoy the rest. This is a perfect read especially if you are cuddled up inside trying to avoid the winter's extreme cold.

Mambo and Murder

A Fiona Quinn Mystery #6

By C.S. McDonald

Narrated by Maren Swenson Waxenberg 

When the fingerprints of a killer believed to be dead for 40 years are found at a break-in Detective Nathan Landry is called in.  Now Nathan has to infiltrate the local ballroom dancing scene. There is just one little problem - Nate can't dance. Worse his attempts to learn has taken out his partner and resulted in him being kicked out of dance class.

Well, it's more like a BIG problem and he has to call on his girlfriend Fiona Quinn to risk life and limb to be his partner in this undercover gig. 

Fiona has her own mystery to solve her late Grandma Evhas been receiving letters from the 1970s! And even more interesting some of Fiona's neighbors have been getting decades-old mail too! Where has the mail been all these years and why has it started being delivered now? 

Mambo and Murder is at times just a little over the top - especially when the ballroom dance competition is underway. Fiona has a moment that is just too-too! Let's leave at a sibling moment that is not to be missed. But all isn't gliding across the ballroom floor perfection when danger comes calling and the past and the present collide.

This was an excellent listen for a work commute or just for a little downtime after you get home. The narration by Maren Swenson Waxenberg is excellent. The pacing is good and the dialog of the various characters is discernible so one can tell the characters apart while listening.

Enjoy All Four Fiona Quinn Quick Mysteries:

Banking on a Murder

A Fiona Quinn Quick Mystery

By C.S. McDonald

The Memorial Day weekend is kicking off and Fiona is about to enjoy a get-together with an old friend. It's been years since Priscilla Conroy has been in the neighborhood but thanks to a not-so-pleasant divorce she is back in Pittsburgh. 

But when Priscilla never emerges from the bank, Fiona starts thinking, which may or may not be such a good thing. Did Priscilla blow her off, get knocked off by her ex? So many possibilities and no way to get answers. But Fiona, being Fiona, just can't let her mind rest and makes several trips to the now closed for the holiday bank. Everything looks fine and dandy except for the little old lady who keeps frequenting the ATM, but whatever. Until the whatever gives Fiona a new thought!

Banking on a Murder is a fun a quick read that can be enjoyed over a long lunch break. The story is entertaining and at places very amusing. I have to admit that I did not expect the conclusion that occurred and I'd say most people in a similar position would not expect this outcome either. The story is easy to follow and even if you have never read any Fiona Quinn mysteries before you won't get lost in not knowing what happened previously.

Fierce Love ~ Book Spotlight with Giveaway

Fierce Love 

Creating a Love that Lasts–One Conversation at a Time
By Susan Scott

About Fierce Love: Creating a Love that Lasts–One Conversation at a Time

Publisher: Thomas Nelson (January 11, 2022)

Hardcover: 240 pages

New York Times bestselling author Susan Scott guides couples through eight must-have conversations to create a fierce love that stands the test of time and grows stronger over the years.

Often in our romantic relationships, we long for deep connection, but we don’t know how to communicate well and sometimes withhold what we’re really thinking and feeling. This can lead to fighting, resentment, or, worse, complacency–where you are just going through the motions, more like roommates than two people in love. As Susan writes, “It’s as if we’ve pulled off our own wings.” As couples, we don’t stop to think how important our conversations are. And we certainly don’t understand that what we talk about and how we talk about it determine whether our relationships will thrive, flatline, or fail.

In Fierce Love, New York Times bestselling author Susan Scott guides couples through eight must-have conversations that lead to deep connection and lasting commitment. Through the use of true stories and hands-on exercises, Susan helps us

• understand that the conversation is the relationship;
• identify and dispel five relationship myths that mislead and derail us;
• learn eight conversations that are critical to enriching relationships; and
• stop fighting or ignoring issues and start connecting in a deep and meaningful way.

After a season where many relationships were tested and tried, where some relationships thrived and others have exposed cracks couples didn’t even realize were there, or realized but didn’t acknowledge, now is the best time to learn to communicate well. By having honest, compelling conversations with our partners, we can foster true connection and a fierce love that will withstand the test of time and grow stronger over the years.

Enter the Giveaway: 

1 winner will receive a copy of Fierce Love by Susan Scott.
