HEAT by Jamie K. Schmidt

When your fiance is a drug addict and starts beating on you what do you do?  You stay and take the beating of course, since you're a doctor and believes that you can fix him.   When he forces drugs down your throat, do you knock him out and report his ass to the police, nooo.  You wait until he passes out, grab what you can and go into hiding. This seems to be the case for E.R (No not the tv show) Dr. Mallory Bryant. After hiding for two months and her finance completely depleted, Mallory has no other choice than to seek help from the black sheep of the family, her older sister Colleen.  Colleen owns a "special" business called Couture which has a sweet side and a wicked side.  Wanting to protect her little sister, Colleen enlisted the help of one of her employees to look after her. Max, liking the benefits of the job, excepts it and that is how to story of Max and Mallory began.  Because of the wicked side of Couture, Colleen has heavy securit...

VIRGIN RIVER by Robyn Carr

I've heard a lot of good things about Miss Robyn Carr on Facebook and I just had to go and check out her books for myself.  When I arrived at my local bookstore, there were so many of her books to choose from I just did not know where to start, so obviously I chose to start from the beginning.  Let me start out by saying, there is something in the water in Virgin River. When suffering from grief, the thing that you will need the most is your family and friends around you to help you through your pain, but not Melinda Monroe.

LET THE CHURCH SAY AMEN by ReShonda Tate Billingsley

Simon Jackson sure knows how to preach the word of the Lord but never learned how to practice what he preached.  Three children and not one of them came out the way he wanted them too, too much talking at them and not a lot of talking to them.   His wife Loretta thought it was noble of him to preach for the Lord so she never really protested about his negligence to his family.    When tragedy strikes and Simon has to stand on his own two feet against those who wish him harm without the help of his family, he had to fight his own battles, but is he fighting for the right thing, you've got to read to find out. If Simon was my husband this would not have happened and our children would not have been acting the way these kids were acting.  And what kind of father sees his son with a needle in his arm on the verse of an over dose and just leaves him like that, what kind of pastor does that make him, a fraud that’s what.
