May 16, 2025
We see it mostly through Mira's eyes but also through Gordon's, who happens to be a preacher for the Sourwood children. This little village and the folks who live in Sourwood are the best part.
The children of Sourwood are really sweet and loving. We meet a few of the children, but it seems that we also get a new story about a little girl and how she is feeling. Will this little girl get the family she always wanted? Will Mira be a good teacher and wife to Gordon? Will Mira learn to trust, love, and lean on the Lord? Maybe she will do her Lord's calling.
Can they bring education and reading to children? Will the folks welcome a new teacher and preacher's wife? Will Mira fit in and find a sense of community and family?

Just what did happen on that fateful day 14 years ago and what part did DC Chris Sketty have in it? Is he the hero everyone thinks he is or is he the ultimate betrayer?
Written in flashbacks and in the present, this book goes behind the headlines into the murky world of cops investigating cops, gangs and terrorism and what really happened on that fateful day BUT who can you trust? Is Sketty spinning a yarn or is he just dreadfully unlucky?
With a great plot, fast paced and great characters, although not many are particularly likeable, this is a book that I devoured in quick time such was the pull of the story and my need to find out just what the heck happened and I wasn't disappointed in the slightest.
From start to finish, this is a winner for me and I must thank Headline via NetGalley for my advance copy in return for an honest, unbiased and unedited review.

The wit is sharp, the sex is hot and the romance is sweet. Yes, it does all move fast - Lina admits that herself. However, with the help of a special fang necklace (trust me, it works!) they know that they are right for each other.
A sassy, sexy, hot read - perfect for those summer evenings. Definitely recommended.

This story fairly skips along and you are introduced to a variety of characters and situations. Reychel has to learn that a darker side exists in most people. She is accused of being naive but her situation in life hasn't exactly been there to give her experience. Who should she trust and who should she not? This is something that Reychel has to find out quickly as other people are depending upon her.
I really enjoyed this story and am continuing on my Cloud Prophet journey as I am now reading Oubliette, book 2.
Definitely recommended for Fantasy readers.
