review 1: I am always hunting for Christian Fiction that is well written, and I am at a loss at why such a favored author hit such a sour note from me. I did not feel that the characters were well developed, I did not feel that the storyline was as developed as it should be, and she may n...

review 1: I loved this book!! This is a compilation of 5 Novellas that combined create one whole story. It was fun for me to see how each author took over the story from the ending of the previous one and continued the story focusing on another character. I thought the characters were well...

review 1: The Lightkeeper's Daughter was an enjoyable day's read; despite it is what I consider a fluff story. It offers a bit of intrigue, a bit of romance, a bit of history. I liked the setting and timing of the story: lighthouses and the early 20th-century.Colleen Coble's Christian mes...

review 1: I really enjoyed this book. I had heard it was a bit heavy on Christianity but I didn't feel that way at all. It was there but it was subtle and well woven in to the story line. There also weren't Bible passages cut and paste in like some other Christian books do (and that I find...

review 1: I haven't read any Christian romance novels since Janette Oake's LOVE COMES SOFTLY, so I didn't know what to expect. This was a very quick read. It took an hour. It was cute, fluffy--great beach reading. The one thing I didn't like is that (spoiler warning) the author used the sa...

review 1: I struggle with Colleen Coble's books and am about ready to give up on them. They have great story lines, plot twists, relationships, but the books fall apart. I can't believe they get published. With this series, I can't get myself to care for the people. I was 20 pages from bei...

review 1: I usually really like Colleen Coble's books, but this one was really hard to stomach. One of the main issues I had with it was that Lily would tell whoever she wanted to about the things that were supposed to be of utmost secrecy. After the third person she told I was truly rolli...

review 1: The heroine of this romance is a likeable, headstrong young woman on the verge of marriage to one man but finds herself falling in love with another. Predictable in places, there is still an air of mystery which surrounds the pirating of some ships and the theft of gold. Add in...
