The Archer Brothers Series / Book 3

Image
Today we are reviewing the last book in the Archer Brothers Series. The next series is called the Hearts of Faith Series by Jody Hedlund (one of my new favorite authors).     On a side note, I've decided to add something new to my blog called "Time in the Limelight". (I've heard it called "character spotlight" but I wanted to make my own name.) Basically, "Time in the Limelight" is going to be a page dedicated to a certain character in a book. So if the book were Waterfall, by Lisa T. Bergren, the page might be on Gabriella Betarrini. From the page you'll learn about Gabi's character traits, skills, etc.,. Possibly, even a photo of a person who matches the description of Gabi. (That one might be a little tough. It's hard to find a likeness and everyone's image of what a character in a book looks like is different.) I hope to have the first "Time in the Limelight" posted next week.   I hope everyone is enjoying the summer w...

The Archer Brothers Series / Book 2

 Good afternoon everyone. Two days till Summer officially begins; although it seems like Summer started weeks ago. Before the 21st I hope to have completed my list of Summer goals. Maybe someone more organized is already done but I'm kind of a procrastinator. I'm not even sure why I make a list of goals because I hardly ever accomplish half of them. :) Definitely something I need to work on.       Wishing you a wonderful day! Book Title: Stealing the Preacher Series: The Archer Brothers (Book #2) Author: Karen Witemeyer Description: On his way to interview for a position at a church in the Piney Woods of Texas, Crockett Archer can scarcely believe it when he's forced off the train by a retired outlaw and presented to the man's daughter as the minister she requested for her birthday. Worried this unfortunate detour will ruin his chances of finally serving a congregation of his own, Crockett is determined to escape. But when he finally gets away, he's haunted by the ...

Book Title: Captured By Love Publishing Date: July 1, 2014 A little bit about the book: -Michigan Territory, 1814- A voyageur and a young woman swept up in a time of upheaval and danger discover firsthand the high price of freedom. The British Army has taken control of Michilimackinac Island and its fort, forcing the Americans to swear an oath of loyalty to the crown in order to retain their land. Pierre Durant is a fur trader who returns after being away from the island for years, only to find the family farm in shambles and those he cares about starving and at the mercy of British invaders. Torn between the adventurous life of fur trading and guilt over neglecting his defenseless mother, Pierre is drawn deeper into the fight against the British--and into a relationship with Angelique MacKenzie, a childhood friend who's grown into a beautiful woman. She now finds herself trapped by the circumstances of war and poverty, and the cruelty of her guardian, Ebenezer Whiley. As tension...

The Archer Brothers Series / Book 1

Hello everyone! I apologize for not posting in the last few weeks. The days have been passing by in a blur and I couldn't find any extra time. My sisters and I just got back from the Set-Apart Girl Conference at Ellerslie in Windsor, Colorado. Such a life changing experience. Definitely something I would recommend for you to look into. (For more information visit: setapartgirl.com ) We're starting a new series this week, The Archer Brothers by Karen Witemeyer. I'm really enjoying reading the books she's written. I've read every single one of hers except Head in the Clouds which I have on my desk right now. I've also come across a new author, Mary Connealy, whose books I totally love. I'm sure we'll be reviewing some of her series in the near future.   As you may have noticed I've decided to take "my favorite book" off the sidebar. It's too hard to choose and to be honest I don't really know. I seem to have a new favorite book every ...
