Muskoka Miracle by Carolyn Miller

Muskoka Miracle by Carolyn Miller is the last book in the Muskoka Romance series. Sarah and Dan Walton have been married and living their dream life. Sarah continues to write and perform music and Dan plays professional hockey. They want to have a baby, but nothing seems to be going right.

The story drew me in as I watched Sarah and Dan’s hearts change. Dan and Sarah had great chemistry, banter, and a solid friendship. Watching their life go on after being married was a treat. The author did a great job with this faith-based story sharing struggles in a way that was very relatable to the reader. I was invested in the story and felt very connected to the characters. I enjoyed catching up with Dan and Sarah and all my friends in Muskoka.

This book is a beautiful story about faith, trusting in God as you walk through the hard, and the beauty of love. After reading I felt like I understood more of my Father, and His great love for me. I could not seem to put the story down! I highly recommend Muskoka Miracle by Carolyn Miller.

The Perfect Rom-Com by Melissa Ferguson

 The Perfect Rom-Com by Melissa Ferguson is simply perfect!  I adored this novel.  Bryony is an ESL teacher who is trying to save her work place with a book she has written.  Jack Sterling is a literary agent who talks Melissa into a ghost writing for a big-name author.  

This book was everything!  Bryony and Jack had amazing chemistry, banter, and a great friendship.  Jack is simply cool and you never quite sure what he is up to which gives him an air of mystery.  Bryony is the friend that you always wanted and you hope her sister comes along w when you go to lunch!  I loved this novel from beginning to end and kept turning the pages to see what would happen next.  It has romance, sweet friendships, great humor and simply sparkles.  

The Perfect Rom-Com by Melissa Ferguson is a novel you do not want to miss.  The writing is fantastic and I think it is the author’s best work to date.  The humor, romance, and engaging characters will draw you in and you will not want to leave the story.  I highly recommend The Perfect Rom-Com by Melissa Ferguson.

The Mother's Day Bargain by Martha Fouts

The Mother’s Day Bargain by Martha Fouts and Narrated by Lisa Lynn Sandlin was a delightful read. Rae and Gabriel have been friends since childhood. Rae works in IT and has liked Gabriel as long as she can remember. Gabriel is a realtor who has recently realized that he cares for Rae. Their moms decide to have them for brunch, but they must bring a date or their moms will set them up.

It was a joy to listen to The Mother’s Day Bargain. I was so engaged in the story and loved the characters. The themes of redemption, family, and walking by faith resonated with me. I loved the chemistry between Rae and Gabriel, being an insider as they wrestled with tough issues, and the humor sprinkled throughout the book.

It is wonderful to read a faith-based book with well-developed characters, humor, and relatable life lessons. I enjoy the author’s story and feel like her books are the perfect length. I highly recommend listening to the audio and it was the highlight of my recent trip. The Mother’s Day Bargain is an enjoyable listen.

Hello! My name is Martha, and in addition to being an author, I’m also a pastor’s wife, a mom, and now I’m a mother-in-law! My three sons really threw us all for a loop in 2023 — they all got married within 7 months of each other! Whew! It was BANANAS, but it was also so much fun. I ADORE all three of my new daughter-in-loves, and I am so thankful that we are a family of eight! (Also, I am SERIOUSLY thinking of how I can make that crazy wedding season of our life into a book!)

My husband, Kevin, is the pastor of Discovery Church in Yukon, Oklahoma, and it is my joy to get to serve alongside him at Discovery. I was a public school teacher for many years, and I enjoyed teaching, but I am loving this new season of getting to work with my husband in ministry.

I am passionate about writing and have written a few novels and Bible studies. For fun, I love to go to coffee shops and read or write. I also love to get pedicures and brunch with friends and go for walks at the park. My favorite books are those that blend romance and humor and point people to Jesus.

An Overdue Match by Sarah Monzon

An Overdue Match by Sarah Monzon is a delightful Romantic Comedy and the first book in the new series Checking Out Love. Evangeline Kelly has moved to a new town after her broken engagement to start over where no one knows about her Alopecia. She loves her job working in the library. Tai Davis is a tattoo artist who sees beyond what is skin deep.

I was enchanted by this story. I appreciated that the main characters had so much depth, great chemistry, and it was a privilege to watch their faith journey. The humor and banter between them and honestly all the characters had me smiling and laughing out loud. I was so invested in what happened to everyone. This story is rich with fantastic characters, excellent do-overs, and relatable characters.

The redemptive theme of seeing yourself as God sees you was beautiful. The story encourages you to look deeper with people you know and put your faith in action with them. I highly recommend An Overdue Match by Sarah Monzon. Definitely a favorite of 2025.

The Farmer's Marriage Bargain by Heidi Main

The Farmer’s Marriage Bargain by Heidi Main is a sweet romance from Love Inspired and book number three in the Triple C Ranch series. It is a stand-alone novel. Emma Bailey is raising triplets alone, and needs to buy expensive medicine for her daughter. Carter McCaw vowed never to marry. Emma needs insurance that Carter has and a marriage of convenience comes into play.

This was such a delightful modern day take on a marriage of convenience. Emma and Carter were so likable and it was a pleasure to watch them both change throughout the story. I loved the kindness they showed to each other and seeing the depths of their hearts. It was a pleasure to watch them both discover who they were meant to be and fall in love. Carter’s family and Emma’s good friends complemented the story. The setting of Emma’s goat farm was perfect. What is there not to love about goats, triplets, and a marriage of convenience?

This beautiful redemptive story was a wonderful read. I am so glad I was able to visit Emma’s goat farm and my other friends from the Triple C Ranch. I thoroughly enjoyed reading and highly recommend The Farmer's Marriage Bargain.

Bestselling author Heidi Main writes sweet inspirational romance novels set in small towns. She lives in the suburbs, but dreams of acreage and horseback riding, which is probably why her novels include wide-open ranches and horses.

Heidi worked in the computer field, then owned a Jazzercise franchise, before she began her writing career. She has a major sweet tooth. She loves popcorn and milk chocolate (not necessarily in that order), and savor novels and movies with happily-ever-afters. When she isn’t writing, she loves to take walks, garden, play board games, curl up with a good book, and watch HGTV. A perfect Saturday is lounging on the deck with her husband and watching the many birds in their backyard.

Misfortune and Mr. Right by Savannah Scott

Misfortune and Mr. Right by Savannah Scott is the third book in the Only Magic in the Building series. Olivia Pennington has spent her whole life competing with Logan Alexander. She thinks she has finally put him out of her life when he is working in Boston until one day when he shows up as her new co-worker. Second chance at love?

I was intrigued from the first page, and the story did not disappoint. Olivia and Logan had great banter, chemistry and you could not help, but root for them to be a couple. I loved the nods to Pride and Prejudice throughout the story. The secondary characters were integral to the story and I loved how they cared for each other. Magical realism is becoming my new favorite type of book to read, and Misfortune and Mr. Right explored this well. The fortune cookies that pop up through the story will bring you joy.

I am a big Savannah Scott fan, but this may be my favorite of all her books. The connection of the main characters to each other, their amazing friends, and the themes of redemption were so well done. There is nothing quite like a second chance and this book does that beautifully. I highly recommend Misfortune and Mr. Right by Savannah Scott and this will be a 2025 favorite!

A Jane Austen Year: Celebrating 200 years of Jane Austen by Jane Austen's House on tour with Austen Prose.

What is one of the best surprises you have had this year? OR What are you reading.

For me the best surprise of my year happened when A Jane Austen Year Celebrating 200 Years of Jane Austen arrived on my doorstop from Jane Austen's House published by Pitkin  on Valentine's day! ❤ Yes, Valentine's Day! (My husband luckily brought flowers, but I did tell him it was hard to top the book) Happy to be on the book tour with Austen Prose

It has been a delight to read through A Jane Austen Year! I felt like an insider learning about the many of the details that are in Jane Austen’s novel. The book is divided by month and includes photographs, drawings, letters, Austen book quotes, Regency history, and information on Jane Austen’s life and home. I found myself reading a little each day as the book continues to bring me joy. I was drawn in by the letters that Jane Austen had written to friends and family, the family portraits, and history of her home. Such an amazing read!

This is the ultimate book for any fan of Jane Austen, someone who loves the Regency time period, or appreciates beautiful books. Truly, you cannot go wrong reading or giving to someone as a gift. This will be one of my top favorite books for 2025. I very highly recommend A Jane Austen Year!
