Abby Cooper is a P.I., psychic intuitive. But her insight failed her when she didn't foresee the death of one of her clients-or that the lead investigator for the case is the gorgeous blind date she just met. Now, with the police suspicious of her abilities and a killer on the loose, Abby's future looks more uncertain than ever.

This is book 1. Last fall I read book 4, Killer Instinct, and now I am reading book 2, Better Read than Dead. Great series

If dogs could talk....oh the stories they could tell. Don't you sometimes wish you knew what your pet was thinking....whether or not the understand what you are saying? This book shows you that perhaps they understand more than we think they do.

This book was full of emotions...drama, but the chapters are short and I really enjoyed it.

The 2nd book in the "In the Garden" trilogy and this one, I felt was much better than the first one. Now, I can't wait for "Red Lily" when it comes out in December.

The first book in the "In the Garden" trilogy by Nora Roberts. It was good but I am hoping the next one is better. I felt there was a little something missing.

I had read the 2nd book in the series, "Fair Play" a few months ago and had a hard time getting my hands on this one. I'm glad I was finally able to. I really enjoy her writing and look forward to more books from her.

A very touching and inspiring true story of Martin, who, when he was 12 years old, he came home from school with a sore throat. Over the next two years, his mind and body shut down, until he was left a quadriplegic who could not speak. Then, around the time he was 16, his mind started coming back to life. He tells his story in the book, Ghost Boy.

This is a MUST read for any military spouse. I wish I had read it earlier than I did.

Having just finished Men in Kilts by this author, I am tackling another one of her books. I really enjoyed this one. The main character, Alix is insecure but fun. There are some moments in the story that had me cracking up and some that I could even relate to. A really enjoyable read!

I picked this up on a whim. Not a bad story if you don't mind erotica and don't care that the main characters jump into bed early into the story..a mere few hours after they meet.

The back cover says the male lead is Tom Claybourn which is wrong. It's Jasper "Jas" Claybourne.

This book is very well written, and the story is full of good people, bad decisions, courage, love, loss and healing.

I had a very hard time putting it down, but unfortunately, sometimes you just don't have the time to read, no matter how good a book is.

I highly recommend this book, but I will warn you...there is sensitive subject matter, in regards to miscarriages, and that could be hard for some readers.

I found myself putting it down and wondering what I would have done in Isabel's place? In Tom's or even in Hannah's?


Make America Healthy Again: How Bad Behavior and Big Government Caused a Trillion-Dollar Crisis
Review Date: 6/6/2020


Really enjoyed reading this. Dr. Saphier has a lot of good information on the ways we can help lower our healthcare costs....mainly by taking better care of ourselves. I worked healthcare for a number of years so I really understood what she was saying. This book delves into insurance; the pros and cons of the ACA; Medicare for All, and how costs rise and fall, and she touched on health care provider burnout which occurs more often than many people realize.

This is book 4 of the Homecoming Heroes series, but I had only previously read Book 3, "At his command".

I really enjoyed this story and felt that there was a lot of depth to the main characters in the book (Nora and Robert)

There were a few times I almost put this book away, but I am glad I didn't. It's a story about life for a Middle-Aged Professional Woman, with grown children and a busy husband who finds her life turned upside down. I don't want to give to much away though, but it is a good book. Like I said, I was not to sure at first, but the more I read it, the more I enjoyed it.
