C.J.'s Review:

Who really killed James Bowen?

Justina (Tina) Wright is at it again! To right a wrong done to Gavin Gamble. There are many players on the field that Tina and her brother have to sort out. You may be able to figure out the key players, but the challenge comes into play to figure out how. Being a genius isn't easy. Reading between the lines is easy for her, proving it is another. With the killer tying up loose ends, will Tina be able to get it sorted before the killer gets away with murder?

I don't want to give away too much, except to say it will keep you guessing! I look forward to reading more from CW Hawes in this Justina Wright series!

C.J.'s Review:

Take a trip back to the old west.

Young William Battles was just starting off in life in the late 1800’s. Choosing to be a journalist sounded like a safe profession. Being sent down to an old property of his mother’s to sell seemed like an innocent request. However, this journey to Dodge City turned out to be anything but innocent or safe. As a matter of fact, this one event sent Billy down a trail that would shape his next several years.

Looking over his shoulder, struggling to move on, courting his love….all of it seemed to be the normal trail of life. Then, in comes the Bledsoe’s. How this family affected Billy, and how he dealt with the events of that day so long ago, will have to be discovered by the reader!

I have to say I was not thrilled to find out there was a part two, and that I will have to wait to find out what happens next! 

If you are a fan of historical fiction, you will enjoy this jaunt back in time with the likes of Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson among the cast!

A Crazy Journey!

Richard Schwindt takes you back in time to the 1960's. You follow young Richard's life as he grows to an older man. At twenty to start, he is over sixty years old...and not at heart. He is somehow transported back in time, but retains all his memories. Given more than enough money, strict instructions, but confused as to what he's doing there, he lives his life, knowing what date he will cease to exist in this timeline.

He wakes, to find him in his present life. He enjoys some time with his wife, Nina...only to wake twenty years young again...as a female! Adjusting to this life as a woman, who is over a hundred-year-old man, is confusing at best. 

Thankfully, he has friends from his "Richard two" life to help! However, he/she must continue forward in her current state until the predetermined time. Heading into March 2076, after multiple natural disasters, he is relieved to wake up in the arms of his loving wife, Nina.

Confused? Imagine being Richard!

Very well written, funny at times, heartbreaking at others! It's a walk backward and forward in time that you don't want to miss!

Family Secrets

"Wolfgang wanted to do the best for his family, and he was a financial genius. To that end, he formed a secret family business at the end of WWII - "R-Group." This would solidify security for his family well into the next generation. Julianne was in that next generation. She chose to follow the family business, and had extensive tutoring to accomplish that goal.

Well on her way to taking over the family business, she flourished on the society level as well. That is, until Andreas came to town. The mystery behind this new family was too intriguing for Julianne to pass up. She fell head over heels for Andreas.

While Wolfgang had his concerns, for the sake of his family, he did not vocalize them. Would this be the downfall of Julianne? Once he found out who Andreas really was, it was too late. This would be a secret that would haunt the family line down the generations."

A Tale Of Two Tragedies:

A little boy looking for his father. A beautiful young lady killed before her time. They come together in the east Texas town of Ashland.

Caleb Pirtle III takes you back in time to a 1930's oil town. He flawlessly weaves together two storylines that will leave you guessing until the very end. If you enjoy a good mystery novel, this is a must read!

You become so invested in the lives of characters long past. Hoping with all hope for young Ollie Porter in the search for his father that it will have a happy ending. You walk through the investigation of the death of Louise Fontaine with newspaper owner, Eudora Durant, her other half, Doc Bannister, and Constable Waskom Brown. Normally, I am able to figure out who did it after a few chapters, but I had no idea until the end. Well done! I look forward to reading more from Caleb Pirtle III!

A Question of Love:

Zara is an enigma to Buzz. He loves and admires her with every fiber of his being. The story starts off with a bang, when Buzz and his crew rescue her from being held captive. They arrived to find her captors unconscious, bound, and gagged...and Zara badly beaten and tied to a chair.

So many questions. So little answers. Zara has a past that she does not want to explain, so Buzz gives her and out. He offers her a fresh start...a clean slate.

As they make their new life together, it isn't enough for Buzz. He continues to push to get what he wants - a wife, children, and a loving home. He wants the gift of stability for both of them. Zara cannot understand why just having her by his side isn't enough for him. When he pushes too far...will she bend or break?

Breakfield and Burkey paint a wonderful picture of love between two people. But what happens when love isn't enough? I look forward to reading ore from these authors!
