‘Love is a wonderful thing, and you never know when love can happen, you just need to believe it will’
It’s very rare for me to find a book like this one and as you keep reading, there is a constant giggle that it just can’t stop. Stories like this are a reminder that no matter the age or the rough pass of time, love will still come to you, from one way or another, a mother, a relative or a close person to you will always care and get worried about you and as twisted as your life might be, there is a solution for that too.
I, honestly don’t have the words to express how much I love this book, especially because two months ago one…

IS SAM MARTINS FIELD A GATEWAY TO HEAVEN OR HELL? THE LEAVING FIELDS BY GARY D. HENRY

karenwritesmurder's avatarkarenwritesmurder

LEAVING FIELDS EBOOK.jpgWhen his wife left him, Sam Martin decided that New York was too crowded and full of bad memories, so he decided to move out west. He bought a huge but inexpensive farm, near a small town called Gateway in Wyoming. Gateway was not on any map, so he knew that he would find the solitude that he desperately needed. Upon his arrival, he noted that the small town was stuck in the 1930’s, not to mention a few other quirks that mystified him. Coming from a farming background, he relished the opportunity to sow his own fields and live an uncomplicated farm life for the rest of his days. 
A strange black rock jutted out from the middle of the field. It had writing upon it, so he thought that it might be a strange monument to a past farmer of these fields. One night, while admiring the splendor…

INDIAN SUMMER BLURB.jpg

51mpGnSsLXLLight humor, gently edgy romance, and intriguing history
October 22, 2013 – Published on Amazon.com
A historical romantic adventure set in a nicely different time and place, Dellani Oakes’ Indian Summer tells of the Spanish governor’s family in St. Augustine, Florida, enjoying high society while still treating the common people with sensible care. But the British are coming with plans to change the world.

Intriguing details of Indian tribes, British spies, history and politics feed very naturally into this young adult romance as teenager Bella wonders what the future will bring to her. About to become officially adult as she turns fifteen, she knows little of the world of men, and doesn’t understand why a servant might tell her to beware. Soon two handsome characters are vying for her attentions. But a storm of weather, matching Bella’s storm of emotions, helps her decide where her heart might lie.

Soon there…

RHYTHMANDBLUESBOOK4MCGROUGHCLAN.jpg51PXL4yf41L.jpg You will quickly learn to decipher a thick Scottish brogue in Rhythm and Blues, and thoroughly enjoy doing so. It’s a love story about a former bad boy musician who meets the woman of his dreams after a freak motorcycle accident.

There are parts that will make you clutch at your heart because the inner workings of Lurch’s mind are so sweet when he thinks about a possible life with Cate. He’s torn over his bad boy past, and worried he’s not good enough for the young and beautiful green-eyed red head, and I found it incredibly touching.

What I loved about this book is the unique dialect of certain characters, the love story and how it unfolds, and the fact that it’s a nice smooth read that doesn’t leave you stressed. 

It’s a sweet romance meant to take your mind away from your everyday troubles as you step…
