"Revealed" by Tamera Alexander

Revealed by Tamera Alexander is an historical Christian fiction romance that I thoroughly enjoyed reading from beginning to end.  This is the sequel to Rekindled which I also enjoyed and is the second book in the Fountain Creek Chronicles series.  Although the ending was predictable, I loved the journey with humor, action and interesting characters.  This is about Annabelle, a former prostitute who marries the man who bought her from the brothel.  Right off the bat, she finds herself a widow with a very antagonistic brother-in-law, Matthew.  The novel beautifully shows how people can change and become new creatures in Christ.  Both Annabelle and Matthew have pasts they would rather forget.  Once I started, it was hard to put this one down!  I highly recommend it.

"Let The Tornado Come" by Rita Zoey Chin

In Let the Tornado Come by Rita Zoey Chin, we are told about Rita's childhood which was rough to say the least.  Now a married woman, she suffers panic attacks at every turn.  This read like a novel only it's true!  I loved this book and highly recommend it.  I was drawn into her stories and found myself rooting for her to get help.  Turns out an animal was a big help.  What kind?  You will have to read the book to find out (or Karen's review below)!

Karen read this too:
Let The Tornado Come by Rita Zoey Chin is a memoir about her dark childhood, her panic attacks and her journey to having a normal life she dreamed of with the help of horses. I almost quit on this book because her childhood was so awful! The abusive parents were bad, but the child prostitution and her life on the streets was horrible and disgusting. I felt bad for her and admired her courage to keep searching for a better life. The best part of the book was how she bonded with a horse named Claret. The thing that was most distracting to me was how the book kept jumping back and forth between the past and the present. Overall, it was pretty shocking to me and gave me some insight into a lifestyle that is very different from mine. (3 stars)

Loved "The Highway" by C. J. Box

The Highway proves why C. J. Box is one of the best authors around. Two girls are missing and the hunt is on to find out where they are and who did it. There is lots of action in this book and I really enjoyed all the characters! The ending was unexpected and oh so good! I LOVED IT!
