Two Thrillers for a Long Winter's Night

by Donna Huber

While the weather isn't truly frightful yet, it is cold enough at night that all I want to do is curl up with a book so delightful. Add a cup of hot cocoa and it is the perfect evening for a bookworm.

Spend Another Christmas with Soul Sisters at Cedar Mountain Lodge

by Susan Roberts

Last year a group of authors collaborated on a Christmas series and published books 1 - 6 of the Soul Sisters series. In November 2021, five more Christmas books were added to their series.  All of the books can be read as standalones but it's more fun to read the entire series in order.  This is a review of books 7 - 11.  If you want to read my review of books 1-6, you can read it here.

A Season for Second Chances by Jenny Bayliss ~ a Review

by Donna Huber

Despite the snowy cover and "season" in the title A Season of Second Chances is not a Christmas story. It does take place during the off-season in a small seaside village in England and there are a few fall and winter holiday celebrations. Even though "second chances" in the title would make you think this is a romance, it is actually more of women's fiction.

Most of the historical fiction that I read takes place during World War II.  I enjoy reading about the bravery of women during this time period who work to overcome the atrocities of the war.
