Be still my heart! A shipboard romance, a prodigal son, Tricia Goyer’s rich historical research, and all the Titanic’s lushness and impending doom—By the Light of the Silvery Moon is everything a historical romance novel should be.

Excellent novel about the Gilded Age. It started slow but picked up into a wonderful rollicking pace as devastating secrets are revealed and critical decisions must be made. Clara is a delightful heroine, at first naive and manipulated, but becoming...more

My rating:

Jill Eileen Smith does it again! In Bathsheba, she takes a controversial story from the Bible and makes it real and emotional. This is the most difficult book of the series to read, and I found myself very uncomfortable as I watched David and Bathshe...more

“Long ago she'd clamped an iron shell around her heart and nothing and no one could pry it lose, but deep inside the tender flesh still beat.”
Sarah Sundin, A Memory Between Us

“The shame of her youth screamed at her from every brick, but Jesus silenced it. She had dreaded this moment for weeks, but God was so powerful. In the very place of her worst sin and deepest pain his peace billowed through her soul.”

Sarah Sundin Actually I didn't post them - someone else did :) I came home from vacation, and there they were! She posted them on her page, and because I was "tagged," they show up here too.

Sandra Thanks, Sarah! I love the idea of putting quotes from your books on this page.


Julesreffner Yay!! Your book came today!! I can't wait to read it!!!


Julesreffner You're welcome. And yes, I'm loving A Distant Melody so far! Can't wait for A Memory Between Us!

I'm glad to see you gave Rain Song and Chasing Lilacs 5 stars, 2 books I've very much been looking forward to reading. Why do I accumulate these so fast and then can never keep up?!

Thanks, Melissa! As for Ray and Helen, you'll have to read Book 3. However, I will tell you Ray and Helen are the hero and heroine. Whether or not they end up together... :)


Melissa Just finished A Distant Melody...I LOVED it!! Looking forward to Jack and Ray's stories. Hoping Ray might end up with Helen? =)


Donald James Parker Hi Sarah,

Jack and Ruth, and it was a blast to write - their banter just flowed. All I did was transcribe it :) I'm going through the galleys right now, so we're right on schedule.
