Wonderful!

Funny, well paced and engaging! Great combination of story and romance. Twists and turns and humor as well!

amazing love

everyone has a chance, nothing is inpossible. trust in the lord. he never gives us something we can not handle

Not very Christmassy

It is an OK book though not sure why the word Christmas is even in the title. Disappointed in this fact. Didn't hold my attention very well as it seemed to be draggy. I love good Amish fiction but this one was just OK.

I loved this whole series

the caricatures in these books were endearing and the book was sprinkled with liberal doses of laughter

Very Good Book for All Ages.

The novel by J.E.B. Spredemann is one of the highest quality. The book is full of suspense and good Christian values. This is the fourth of the series of Amish Secrets. If one has not had the opportunity to read the previous work by this author, reading this fourth series will definitely make a person obtain the previous books. I would recommend this book to anyone of all ages. The reader will not put the book down until the end.

Very good read

This is one awesome writer as he knows how to write so the reader is spellbound to see what happens next. Keep up the good writing until The Lord calls you to glory

I thought the story would be another type of love story but with all the twist and turns it was a great read. I can't wait for t

I think this author writes very well and I am looking forward to reading more. I learned a lot about the Amish faith and their beliefs.

Great book!

This is a wonderful love story and about how things work together with God. And about the story of salvation.

Five Stars

Great book, J. E. B. Spredemann is a really great author.

Recklessly doing the right thing got Aden into big trouble. A fresh start at his grandparents' is just what he needs. And shy, pretty Lily is turning his world upside down and making him want to prove he can do good within the rules. But now both must find enough faith and understanding to risk pursuing their dreams together.

Wonderful Story - well written

I enjoyed the storyline. It was great with suspense and passion. It was a bit distracting when the narrator called the lead character Aiden by the name "Adam" a few times. Too bad it couldn't be fixed. All in all a wonderful story.

Huckleberry Summer

The story line was awesome. However the reader kept calling the main character Aidan by the name Adam. How does one read the wrong name. U

Publisher's Summary:

What if everything you think is true and real about your life is a lie?

Members Reviews:

Ava Carson, I am woman,here me roar!

I loved the book because of the chemistry between Jack, Sam, and Ava. I thought that it sass hilarious when Mitchell was

Great Book

Beautiful ending ! thank you for acknowledging mothers as super heros. ..we are! I fell in love with Jack and his love for super heros..he is my hero. and eva..she is Wonder mom. on the other hand Mitchell is truly the evil villian. I really enjoyed this book.

Excellent listen...

Would you consider the audio edition of Center of Gravity to be better than the print version?

I could never choose between reading and listening as I enjoy both. This is the first book of Laura McNeill's that I have listened to and definitely plan to read. This is absolutely one I will listen to again and again.

What other book might you compare Center of Gravity to and why?

Survivor in Death by J.D. Robb. The way these stories unfold keeps you intrigued. These are excellent novels. How they are written and read is so vivid, the reader and listener can picture in their mind all that is happening.

What about Lisa Larsens performance did you like?

Lisa Larsen's story telling ability is awesome. She, like narrator Susan Erickson, recites the book so well that a person can visualize the characters.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Totally mixed - laughter, fear, outrage and profound satisfaction while listening to this story unfold.

Any additional comments?

Can't wait to listen and read Laura McNeill's next book, which I hope will continue with Lisa Larsen as narrator.

Excellent narration of a gripping story

A good story that keeps you listening. Well developed characters brought to life by an excellent narrator. The story has six first-person accounts interwoven in the timeline of the story. And you always know whose view of the action is being told.

She can let fear rule or trust in faith, which means taking the biggest risk of her life.

As the weeks and months pass, they discover finding each other was easy, but holding on will be a different story.

Members Reviews:

an excellent story

this was a thoroughly enjoyable book! it completely captured my attention and kept me wanting to come back until it was completely finished.

Sweet romance nominated for 2016 Audie Award!

Any additional comments?

Come to Me Alive is a sweet contemporary romance by Leah Atwood. This audiobook is a finalist for a 2016 Audie Award in the Inspirational/Faith-Based Fiction category. This story centers around Bryce who is a recently redeemed "bad boy," who also happens to be a popular country singer. The story begins about a year after he finds out that he had fathered a daughter 5 years before with a high school friend "with benefits" who never told him about their daughter until she was on her death bed. Bryce struggles with wanting to be a good father while also pursuing a career that he loves.

Bryce meets Miss Sophie in the park one afternoon with his daughter when he is visiting his parents (they agreed to watch over his daughter while he is touring with the band). Sophie is super sweet and just a small town girl who happens to be the local kindergarten teacher - and she has no idea who Bryce is. After she discovers his identity, Sophie definitely does not want to be in the spotlight and hates the medias attention. It is their joint faith and prayers that pulls them through the drama.

Pamela Almand's narration was fantastic. She portrays Bryce as the smoldering heartthrob you'd expect. And she portrays Sophie as the sweet natured home-town girl that she is. Bravo!

A modern day fairy tale

What did you love best about Come to Me Alive: A Contemporary Christian Romance Novel?

Imagining that the plot could happen to me! The male main character is like, the most sensitive, attentive, thoughtful man EVER. And he's rich and famous.

Any additional comments?

I enjoyed the narration and how the narrator brought the story to life not only through the easily distinguishable characters, but also by adding music to make the plot line even more realistic.

All in all, I wasn't super-engaged by the story itself. The main characters have some baggage because of their past experiences or insecurities, but in my opinion, those issues didn't really cause much drama or create too much of a problem.

Welcome Home

Tamera Alexander has a way of taking me home, making me feel all the warm fuzzies of belonging and family, heavenly perspective and peaceful purpose. I loved this story. It had all the possibilities of an in depth page turner and I wanted to stay in that world far longer than the page allowed, but it somehow still felt very complete. Every character was developed beautifully and in a way that allowed me to feel like I knew them personally. I've been a fan of Tamera's since page 1 of book 1. Each book is worth a listen/read.

wonderful christian book

I have most of ms alexander's books. although this is a short book, the thing I appreciate most is that they are all clean books written from a chistian point of view honoring christ while having romance. I highly recommend this book.

2hour story

This was good but could have had a ton more detail! Kinda bummed when I looked and it was the last chapter.

Publisher's Summary:

Charlotte's heart has been hardened by personal tragedy, but now she has the chance to find peace in a place she didn't expect.

Charlotte Dolinsky arrives in Lancaster County with brand new Amish digs and a renewed purpose. It doesn't take her long to fit into the close Amish community. She might not know how to cook, sew, tend a garden, or milk a cow, but she knows how to lie. And she is a woman on a mission - to wreak havoc on the Plain people and seek revenge for the death of her only brother. But a quiet stranger throws a kink in her plan not long after she arrives. As she delves deeper and deeper into what makes this handsome Amish man tick, she begins to wonder about her intentions and the direction her life is taking.

At 24, Isaac Miller is still unmarried and doesn't see his status changing anytime soon. The Lord has blessed him with above-average physical attributes, but his awkward shyness keeps him from pursuing a relationship with anyone. When Charlotte - or "Charlie" as she calls herself - arrives in Paradise, she steals his heart, and he longs to be a different man.

Can Charlie get past the resentment she feels and open her heart? What happens when Isaac comes out of his shell, drawing attention from all the available women in the area? Will Charlie be able to hold onto him? And will he still want her when he learns the truth?

Good story with very poor editing and narrator

It's unfortunate that this wonderful story line was subjected to such a poorly chosen narrator. She lacked significantly in vocal emotional range and the ability to really pull off a variety of characters. Add to that the poor audio editing with no pauses between sentences making it difficult to follow who was speaking at times and you have a book that I wouldn't recommend for audiobook listeners.

Breathless, no pauses

This was a very enjoyable story. Because the story and writing was so interesting, I don't have much time to "read" I continued to listen. However, the performance/recording was disappointing. There were barely any pauses at the end of sentences. There was a lack of emotion. The reading often sounded like panting. It would be beneficial to have this book re-recorded.

Publisher's Summary:

With their 13 children grown, Anna and Felty Helmuth are ready for their next adventure. That means trying their hands at matchmaking - because what could be more fun than igniting love when it's right and undoing mismatches when they're wrong? Now Huckleberry Hill just might turn out to be the most romantic spot in Wisconsin.

Lia Shetler is resigned to being a spinster. She's too tall and sturdy to ever be marriageable - so says her overbearing dad. Instead she's helping her pretty, spoiled sister, Rachel, secure the perfect husband - the Helmuths' grandson, Moses Zimmerman. But the more Lia sees of his gently teasing ways and quiet understanding, the more she wishes that Moses could be hers alone.

Moses knew that his grandparents couldn't resist trying to find him a wife. But he never expected that it would be the graceful, sensible Lia - a woman who is tall enough to look him in the eye and honest enough to make him question a promise holding him to his past. Now Moses and Lia will need the kind of miracles that only faith and courage can bring to finally reach for a lifetime of happiness.

Critic Reviews:

"Beckstrand has written a sweet romance with a lot of heart that offers a new, refreshing take on the overused matchmaking trope." (RT Book Reviews)

Members Reviews:

I loved it!!!

I listen to books while driving to and from my husband's Alzheimer's facility. He has only 67 and has Early Onset Alzheimer's Disease. We never made it to Amish areas in our travels, as we hoped to. This book had me riveted and I laughed out loud and even made remarks as it was read to me!! It is by no means a comedy, but it had just enough comedic moments that I anxiously awaited the next one. Thanks for writing such a good story. I look forward to the next one!! Blessings to all.

Not as good as Shelley Shepard Gray, but OK

Any additional comments?

The story did end morally well, but the middle lost it's tension and dragged. Lea, the heroine, is tall, slim and beautiful, but was raised by parents who told her she was not pretty, that her height was a marked drawback,that she would never marry, and never looked, saw or spoke to her of her good qualities, but was constantly admonished to make her younger and "more delicate"certainly shorter sister happy, and be her caretaker. This lack of nourishment did have its affect, thus feeding one side of the conflict in the romantic drama to ensue. She is asked by

some neighbors 40 or so miles away, to come and help them, as they are now elderly, in their 80's, and though hardy, cannot do as much as they would like. They each and collectively are delightful, with spunky, honest, loving and caring natures, and love Lea, appreciating her hard and capable work very much. They have a handsome, and very tall (6'5") grandson named Moses who comes at least once a week to do what else needs doing for them. He is loyal, funny, fun loving, caring ,respectful and sometimes even compassionate, as well as honest and hard working. His story is that he is still in love with his first love, Barbara, who left 3 years ago, and though suffering under a ban from the Amish community, still believes she will one day come back. Nevertheless, she has done well for herself in the Englisher culture, buying a car, getting a decent job, and planning an education.

Publisher's Summary:

Phineas King knows better than to expect anything but shock and pity wherever he shows his face. Horribly scarred from the tragic accident that claimed his mother's life, he chooses to keep his distance from everyone, focusing his time and energy on the bees his family raises. So why does he start finding excuses to seek out Deborah Lantz, the beautiful new arrival in town?

Deborah can't get out of Bee County, Texas, soon enough. Once her mother and younger siblings are settled, she is on the first bus out of this dusty town. She is only waiting on the letter from Aaron, asking her to return to lush Tennessee to be his fraa. But that letter never comes. As she spends time getting to know Phineas - hoping to uncover the man beneath the scars - she begins to realize that she no longer minds that Aaron hasn't sent for her. As both Deborah and Phineas try to come to terms with lives that haven't turned out the ways they imagined, they discover that perhaps God's plans for them are more extraordinary than they could have dreamed. But they need to let go of their own past sorrows and disappointments to find the joy and beauty that lies just ahead.

Book lover. No matter what forum.

I was so happy to see this book in audible. I had bought it in trade but am sick and didn't get a chance to read it. So I listened to it. It was excellent and so was the narrator. I'm hoping to see future books by Kelly Irvin on audible. One of my favorite authors.
