On My Honor by Patty Smith Hall – Review

January 18, 2023 by Suzie Waltner 1 Comment

About the Book

A Girl Scout Troop Joins the Battle of the Atlantic
 
Full of intrigue, adventure, and romance, this new series celebrates the unsung heroes—the heroines of WWII.
 
Ginny Mathis was finished with nursing school and had no intention of staying rooted in the Outer Banks—then war broke out. With her father away, she feels duty-bound to stay and help her mother and younger sister. While working as a clerk for the Oregon Inlet ferry, naval officers ask Ginny and others to be watchful for German U-boats reportedly spotted in the area. So to help occupy her teenage sister, Ginny enlists the Girl Scout troop she leads to help watch for suspicious activity along the coast. 
 
Timothy Elliott is no stranger to death. As a British reporter working with the M-6, he’s numb to the losses of war after two years of fighting the Germans. Maybe that’s why he volunteered for this mission—to connect with an ex-German naval officer who stole the Furor’s battle plan for the Atlantic war. When the boat giving him passage to New York is bombed near the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, Tim is thrown from the boat and wakes up in the care of a group of young girls.
 
Ginny follows her sneaky sister on a clandestine mission and discovers the shipwreck victim. Ginny knows she must take charge, but is this man the enemy, or does he hold secrets that could turn the tide of the Battle of the Atlantic in the allies’ favor?

About the Book

Book: Beneath His Silence

Author: Hannah Linder

Genre: Christian Fiction / Historical / Romance

Release date: November, 2022

Will Seeking Justice Lead to Her Own Demise?

A Gothic-Style Regency Romance from a Promising Young Author

Second daughter of a baron—and a little on the mischievous side—Ella Pemberton is no governess. But the pretense is a necessity if she ever wishes to get inside of Wyckhorn Manor and attain the truth. Exposing the man who killed her sister is all that matters.

Lord Sedgewick knows there’s blood on his hands. Lies have been conceived, then more lies, but the price of truth would be too great. All he has left now is his son—and his hatred. Yet as the charming governess invades his home, his safe cocoon of bitterness begins to tear away.

Could Ella, despite the lingering questions of his guilt, fall in love with such a man? Or is she falling prey to him—just as her dead sister?

Perfect for the Preacher Blitz with Excerpt and a Giveaway

Megan Besing Book Blitz

Welcome to ‘Perfect for the Preacher’ blog blitz and giveaway, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!

Did you know that the writing world is small in some ways? A perfect example is my couple degrees of separation from Megan Besing (whose first published novella is in The Mail-Order Brides Collection. I met Megan a few years ago at an ACFW conference in Dallas through one of my critique partners (who happens to be Megan’s proud mama). See, small world.

Megan’s novella in this collection was one of my favorites. You can find out why here.

My Heart Belongs in San Francisco, California by Janice Thompson – Review

March 15, 2018 by Suzie Waltner Leave a Comment

And if that title isn’t long enough for you, the full title is My Heart Belongs in San Francisco, California: Abby’s Prospects. But to tell you the truth, I’ve been shortening it to My Heart Belongs in San Fran. 😉

In My Opinion

You may want to just skip the description of this book as it’s not entirely on point. If there was a “ridiculous scandal,” it was too subtle.
That said this is a predictable, yet sweet, love story. While Abby is so concerned about her parents, she isn’t focused on herself, Sam, Neville, and Cookie are more than willing to look out for Abby’s best interests.

The Mail-Order Brides Collection by Various Authors (Review)

January 31, 2018 by Suzie Waltner 1 Comment

The Barbour Publishing novella collections are some of my favorite. I will finish a longer read and pick up the collection to read one of the novellas before delving into the next full-length book. These novellas introduce me to authors I might enjoy reading a full-length book from and they give new authors a chance to shine.
