Phoebe's Groom By Deb Kastner!!








From the Cover-
The smell of cinnamon buns and apple pie remind widowed dad Chance Hawkins of the wife he lost five years ago. As does his sad-eyed little girl. So when his aunt hires a new pastry chef— whom she finds online—for their family-owned Texas café, the cowboy cook grumbles. What's more, fancy baker Phoebe Yates is boarding in their home. But soon enough, kind Phoebe is reminding Chance how nice it is to share a sweet roll with his daughter before school. And maybe opening his heart to becoming a groom again!

Tifferz Take:
I am a big fan of Love Inspired books. I really liked the Pheobe, Chance, Lucy and aunt Jo what a great family. Pheobe is so nice and I love that she is direct and to the point. Lucy is a teenager that grows on you. I enjoyed how things played out with her. This story is a very sweet romance! I would say this is a Christan read that is not preachy and tastefully written! The best part for me was the end! I would have liked the ending to be a little longer, but all good things must come to an end. I guess I am a sucker for a happy ending. I would love to get some of Phoebe's recipes. I love to bake and my mouth was watering while reading! I think I need to go bake some cookies!

I would recommend this to someone who likes a clean easy read.

This was an arc copy.

The Hundred Dresses by Eleanor Estes

From the cover: Wanda wore the same faded blue dress to school every day. It was always clean but sometimes it looked as though it had been washed and never ironed. Peggy started the game of the dresses when suddenly one day Wanda said, ' I have a hundred dresses at home--all lined up in my closet.' After that it was fun to stop Wanda on the way to school and ask, 'How many dresses did you say you have?' ' A hundred, ' she would answer. Tifferz Take: I purchased this off amazon.com after a friend on facebook said she read it to her kids and loved it. I read the summary and was hooked. I read The Hundred Dresses to my kids 10, 8 and 5 years old before bed the day I got it. They loved it and so did I. I liked how it opened up a discussion after reading it on how we can be a better person to everyone. This book has a great message for kids and adults! I highly recommend this book. I hope you enjoy this book as much as we did. We will be reading this one again! This book was worth every penny! you can pick up the book here: http://www.amazon.com/Hundred-Dresses-Eleanor-Estes/dp/0152052607/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1302739846&sr=1-1#_

Fractured by Cheri Schmidt


check out Cheri's website and blog below:
http://www.cherischmidt.net/
or
http://www.cherischmidt.blogspot.com/


From the cover:

The Fateful Trilogy continues with Fractured. No, it’s not called Fractured because Ethan and Danielle break up...in case you were wondering.

They had thought they’d escaped most of the danger surrounding them, when in truth they’ve made it worse by unintentionally sparking a civil war amongst vampires. Many vampires want to protect them for discovering the cure to the curse binding their kind. However many more want to destroy them for that same discovery.

Ethan’s and Danielle’s struggle for survival intensifies while they sink deeper into the midst of this danger. The romantic fairytale bliss they once had will soon fracture under the pressure of the curse....

Tifferz Take:
First off this is book two in a three book series. So if you have not read Fateful you will want to read that first.

And the story continues in I loved watching the relationship with Ethan and Danielle grow. Fractured is an exciting read that kept me on my toes with adventure, danger, magic, faeries, romance, some heart break and the unexpected twist and turns. I could not put this book down. I needed to see what happened! At the end I was very surprised. I did not expect it. I don't want to wait for book three. I want it now.

Cheri has a gift for writing and having you feel like you are experiencing everything as it happens. I would highly recommend this fantastic read. But you need to read Fateful first as this is book two in a three book series. I will be reading this one again soon. It is a clean and refreshing read. I will be on the lookout for more from Cheri Schmidt. So Cheri keep those books coming!

www.reussiemiliardario.com

From the Cover:

In this edgy novel, sixteen-year-old Cordellia Dressemme falls for a mysterious bad boy with magical powers and a mission that could bring peace on Earth or… destroy their post-apocalyptic world forever.

Tifferz Take:
I received an arc copy of Girl Possessed! I want to say don't judge a book by it's cover. At first glance of this cover I would say it would be an erotic book, but it is not at all. It is CLEAN. I was pulled into this futuristic world quickly and was surprised at all the unexpected turn of events. Once I stared this book I was unable to put it down. I was captivated.Ms. Miliardario has created such a powerful story with good vs evil, magic, danger, adventure, death and a budding romance. I will say this book does contain some descriptive deaths. I will be looking for book two in this amazing trilogy. I would recommend this read!
