Book Review: Love's Pursuit

OOOOO, this one is really worth watching. Back cover & link below the video.

Love's Pursuit (back cover summary)


In the small Puritan community of Stoneybrooke, Massachusetts, Susannah Phillips stands out both for her character and beauty. She wants only a simple life but soon finds herself pursued by the town's wealthiest bachelor and by a roguish military captain sent to protect them. One is not what he seems and one is more than he seems.
In trying to discover true love's path, Susannah is helped by the most unlikely of allies, a wounded woman who lives invisible and ignored in their town. As the depth, passion, and sacrifice of love is revealed to Susannah, she begins to question the rules and regulations of her childhood faith. In a community where grace is unknown, what price will she pay for embracing love?


I wish I could read it all over again for the first time!


Cheers,

Curled Up

I am currently reading Allison Pittman's Lilies in Moonlight. Such a fabulous romantic story. Because I'm in the process of moving my reading time is soooo very limited. But I grab moments wherever I can. I am a huge Pittman fan and recommend any of her books. She's a Carol Award winning author in historical fiction for her book Stealing Home & has been nominated for a CHRISTY!!!! for her book For Time & Eternity...which is my personal Pittman favorite!

And here's what's next for me...maybe not in this order but they are hanging around my nightstand just itchin' to be read...

A Woman's Place, by Lynn Austin
The Heroines, by Eileen Favorite
Safe Haven, by Nicholas Sparks
While We're Far Apart, by Lynn Austin

...and, seriously, the list could go on & on...Tricia Goyer, Jenny B. Jones, Marlo Schalesky...just to name a few. And you can't forget about the classics...my favorites being Lucy Maud Montgomery, Jane Austen, & Louisa May Alcott. I try to read those on my iPhone Kindle when I nurse the baby.

What are you reading? Anything new & exciting? I'm so in love with books...my house is being overrun with them. In our new house I'm going to hire my dad to build me a bunch of new shelves. Out of the boxes or stacks on the floor & on display these books must go!

Cheers,
