to a senseless tragedy, she vows never to love again. Two years later, at her
grandmother's request, she travels to Poplar Springs to assist with the
mercantile and help care for her ailing grandfather. During a stagecoach accident
and a confrontation with nefarious outlaws, she crosses paths with a man named
Silas McFadden who rescues her and the other passengers. A bond between them
soon forms.</span></span></p>

After a stint on the wrong side of the law, he's now a respectable rancher in
Poplar Springs, Wyoming. After becoming a man of faith, he determines to live
his life for the One who gave him a second chance. He just never imagined that
second chance might include Amaya. Now all he has to do is ensure his past
doesn't return and destroy his and Amaya's fragile relationship.</span></span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">When Theodosia Browning reads the tea leaves on the set of the movie, Dark Fortunes, things go from spooky to worse. Lights are dimmed, the camera rolls, and red hot sparks fly as the film’s director is murdered in a tricky electrical accident.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Or was it an accident? Though the cast and crew are stunned beyond belief, nobody admits to seeing a thing. And when Theodosia’s friend, Delaine, becomes the prime suspect, Theodosia begins her own shadow investigation. But who among this Hollywood cast and crew had murder on their mind? The screenwriter is a self-centered pot head, the leading actress is trying to wiggle out of her contract, the brand new director seems indifferent, and nobody trusts the slippery-when-dry Hollywood agent.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Between hosting a Breakfast at Tiffany’s Tea, a Poetry Tea, and trying to launch her own chocolate line, Theodosia doggedly hunts down clues and explores the seemingly haunted Brittlebank Manor where the murder took place. And just when she’s ready to pounce, a Charleston Film Board member is also murdered, throwing everything into total disarray. But this clever killer will go to any lengths to hide his misdeeds as Theodosia soon finds out when she and her tea sommelier, Drayton, get caught up in a dangerous stakeout.</span></span></p>

<br />
<span style="background: white;">As if someone had suddenly spun a dial and cut
the volume, there was complete and utter silence in the darkened living room of
the dilapidated Brittlebank Manor.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">"Roll film, and . . . action!" shouted
Josh Morro, the film's director.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">Theodosia Browning watched, fascinated, as
actors recited lines, cameras dollied in for close-ups, and producers,
assistant directors, storyboard artists, set dressers, grips, writers, gaffers,
production assistants, makeup artists, and costumers all stood by, ready to
jump at the director's every command.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">It was the first day of filming for Dark
Fortunes, a Peregrine Pictures feature film. And the first time tea shop owner
Theodosia had ever seen a full-fledged movie in the making. Of course, she
wasn't actually in the movie. But this week was still extra special for
Theodosia and Drayton Conneley, her dapper, sixty-something tea sommelier.
They'd been tapped to handle the craft services table, an all-day munch fest
for the cast and crew. It was proving to be a fun break from their normal roles
as hosts at the Indigo Tea Shop on Charleston's famed Church Street, where they
spent their days juggling morning cream tea, lunch, tea parties, afternoon tea,
special events, and catering.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">Catering. Yes, that's exactly why Theodosia and
Drayton had loaded their craft services table with a bounty of tea sandwiches,
lemon scones, brownie bites, banana muffins, cranberry tea bread, and handmade
chocolate fudge. And of course tea, which was Drayton's specialty.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">"This is exciting, yes?" Theodosia
whispered to Drayton. The director had called a sudden halt to filming and now
the crew milled about the darkened set like shadows flitting through a
graveyard.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">"Exciting but strange," Drayton said,
touching a hand to his bow tie. "I had no idea so much work went into
filming a single scene." He peered through the darkness to where the
director was whispering to a cameraman. "And that director seems to be in
a constant uproar."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">Josh Morro, the director, was most certainly
agitated. "Gimme some light, will you?" he barked. And lights
immediately came up revealing the shabby interior of a small, old-fashioned
sitting room. "And we need something more dynamic here. A line or action
that propels us into the heart of the storyline." Morro turned to Craig
Cole, the scriptwriter, and raised his eyebrows in a questioning look.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">"It's already in the script, babe,"
Cole shouted back at him. Cole was Hollywood hyper, rail-thin with a pinched
face and shock of bright red Woody Woodpecker hair.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">"No, it's not. The script is dreck,"
Morro cried as he leaped from his chair, knocking it over backward in the
process. He was tall and angular, dressed in jeans and a faded Def Leppard
T-shirt. Good-looking, handsome even, Morro had intense jade-green eyes and
wore a now-popular-again gunslinger mustache.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">Cole's face contorted in anger. "Watch it,
pal. I wrote that script." His lips barely touched his teeth as he spat
out his words.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">Morro shook his head tiredly. "Fess up,
man. You plagiarized a Japanese film that won a Nippon Akademii-shou back in
ninety-five."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">Cole's face turned bright red to match his hair.
"That might have been the seminal inspiration," he shot back,
"but every line of dialogue is completely mine!"</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">The director stared thoughtfully at the small
round table where a woman wearing a purple-and-gold tunic with matching turban
sat across from Andrea Blair, the film's leading actress.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background: white;">"She should read the tea leaves," Morro
said slowly. "That's what we need. The fortune teller has to read the tea
leaves before she delivers her line."</span></span></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; line-height: 107%;"><span style="background: white;"> </span></span></span> <span style="font-size: x-large;">🫖 🍵 ☕ </span><span style="font-size: x-large;">🫖 🍵 ☕ </span><span style="font-size: x-large;">🫖 🍵 ☕ </span><span style="font-size: x-large;">🫖 <br /></span></p><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; line-height: 107%;"><span style="background: white;"></span></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitu5fNSy-sqoAYXZW6M-HtZhQtnECj0Opdzf_-gUYzqmpaHAGlZZzsqsP4_3v5OM95ggivFf83wuxLfUGOXQe6HLJN3nNWbcjUSwf0JfHUem_VPqIqbNcNSuu7IWr9tTt-tGe4_PrgcHV61cJ4jxiFNuZuaHRo6tmRvFX9iyDDc1sCVsqvsAfGQsgk33w/s140/AUTHOR%20GUEST%20POST%20GRAPHIC.jpg" style="font-family: helvetica; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="78" data-original-width="140" height="111" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitu5fNSy-sqoAYXZW6M-HtZhQtnECj0Opdzf_-gUYzqmpaHAGlZZzsqsP4_3v5OM95ggivFf83wuxLfUGOXQe6HLJN3nNWbcjUSwf0JfHUem_VPqIqbNcNSuu7IWr9tTt-tGe4_PrgcHV61cJ4jxiFNuZuaHRo6tmRvFX9iyDDc1sCVsqvsAfGQsgk33w/w200-h111/AUTHOR%20GUEST%20POST%20GRAPHIC.jpg" width="200" /></a></span></div><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"></span></span><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><b><i>Why Write About Tea? </i></b></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">By Laura
Childs, <i>New York Times</i></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">bestselling author of <i><b>Murder
in the Tea Leaves</b></i></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><i> </i></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">A lot of readers are curious
about why I chose to write about tea. Actually, tea is just the hook, a subtle
reference point, for writing my hybrid cozy-thrillers – what I like to call
thrillzys. On the other hand, I do love tea. I’ve traveled through China,
Japan, and Indonesia and had the good fortune to sample many of their exquisite
teas. In Japan I visited an actual tea plantation set on the steep slopes near
Mt. Fuji. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">When
I signed my first contract with Penguin Random House to write the Tea Shop Mysteries,
tea was just beginning its resurgence. Tea shops were popping up like errant
mushrooms, tea kiosks were appearing at shopping malls, and women were pulling
out their gloves and fancy hats to wear at tea parlors, church teas, and tea
clubs.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">But
what really appealed to me was the idea of a genteel female tea shop owner (as my
protagonist) juxtaposed against a backdrop of murder and mayhem. Now there was
something that had never been done before. And after a bit of research, I set
the series in Charleston, SC because it’s a spooky (some say haunted) city with
an actual tea garden located nearby.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">So
I had my concept, my protagonist, and a fairly dramatic setting. And of course
I had all those wonderful teas to inspire my titles. Darjeeling tea jumpstarted
<i>Death by Darjeeling, Gunpowder Green</i> just begged to be a title, as did <i>Oolong
Dead, Plum Tea Crazy</i>, <i>Haunted Hibiscus, </i>and lots more.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Interestingly,
when I began the series, I figured I would write about six or seven Tea Shop
Mysteries. But the books were popular from the get-go and now have taken on a
life of their own. Right now I’m working on book 28 and there seems to be no
end in sight. (Lucky me!)</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">My
tea shop owner, Theodosia Browning, established the Indigo Tea Shop along with
Drayton Conneley, her tea sommelier, Haley Parker, her chef and baker, and Earl
Grey, the tea shop dog. And because the Indigo Tea Shop is located smack dab in
the heart of Charleston’s 350 year-old Historic District, there’s bound to be
some excitement. In fact, I always start my first chapters with a bang – we’re
talking deadly poisons, shootings, hangings, car crashes, stabbings,
explosions, fires, strangulations, drugs, and even a plunge from the tower of a
haunted mansion.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">And
always (always!) Theodosia gets dragged into these murders. Sometimes they
happen when she’s catering a tea event, sometimes dear friends are impacted
and, when the police come up empty, they beg her to run a shadow investigation.
Of course Theodosia always complies. And comes through with insights, clues,
and even criminal apprehensions. All the while running a tea shop, imagine that.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">As
the Tea Shop Mysteries have grown in popularity, many readers have asked about
the teas that are mentioned. Most are readily available at your local tea shop
or the major online tea retailers – which I list in the back of each book. Of
course, some of the teas that Drayton, my bow tie-wearing, slightly snooty tea
expert, creates are totally fictitious. These might include his Lamplighter
Blend, Palmetto Blend, and Holiday Blend (black tea with dried cranberry,
oranges, and Indian spice).</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">There’s
also no Indigo Tea Shop on Charleston’s famed Church Street, though many of my
readers have asked to see photos and detailed plans. Which I guess means I’ve
succeeded in creating a real sense of place!</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">So
pour yourself a cup of tea, snuggle up with my newest mystery, <i>Murder in the
Tea Leaves,</i> and get lost in a dreamy, aromatic blend of tea and mystery.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Love,</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Laura

In a rehabbed Spur station, Suzanne, Toni, and Petra, three semi-desperate, forty-plus women have launched the Cackleberry Club.

mind wreaking havoc in modern-day Alaska . . .</span></i></b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: courier;">Carrie Kintz is a new major crimes investigator
for the Alaska Bureau of Investigation (ABI) stationed in Anchorage, Alaska.
Her ultimate goal is to work for the FBI, but she is applying her college
degree and skills to become the best investigator she can. Her mentor, Kevin,
and other team members are supportive of Carrie's efforts to develop as an
investigator.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: courier;">Murders of innocent individuals begin to
occur in Anchorage and the surrounding region. When Carrie and the team realize
the deaths may be connected by cyber attacks, Scott Patteson—a security specialist
with an outside firm—is called in to assist ABI with the case.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: courier;">The leader of the murder plan uses
crossword puzzle clues to taunt ABI, most especially Carrie Kintz. He is wily,
but the investigative team is skilled. Their dedication to solving the case
leads them on many divergent paths culminating in a brilliant conclusion to the
story.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: courier;">Carrie and Scott's friendship and
subsequent romance was sweet and realistic. The faith thread in the story
included several meaningful conversations between the couple.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: courier;">The book is completely clean in language
and content. I received a copy of this book from the publisher through JustRead
Publicity Tours. All of my thoughts and opinions shared here are solely my own.</span></span></p>

<b><br />Author:</b> Hope Toler Dougherty
<b><br />Publisher:</b> Scrivenings Press
<b><br />Release Date:</b> January 29, 2024
<br /><b>Genre:</b> Christian Contemporary Romance</span><p><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;">
Phoebe Sinclair combines her love of flowers and teaching to nurture a cut flower business on her grandfather’s land. She’s got her hands full growing the farm, growing her customer base, and dealing with her growing attraction to the aloof man who’s volunteered to help make her farming dream come true. </span></p><p><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;">Can she focus on her main job, or will a pair of yearning eyes and a hurting heart divert her worthy goals? </span></p><p><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;">Heath Daniels has resigned himself to a life of singleness as he watches his siblings couple up and set wedding dates. Tracking their happiness, however, is more difficult than he expected. A real struggle, in fact. </span></p><p><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;">Feeling the old troubles creep back to tempt him—troubles from the bad time when he dropped out of college to explore less-than-noble pursuits—propels him to volunteer for manual labor that leaves him exhausted at the end of every day and out of trouble. </span></p><p><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;">His additional hours of agri-business, however, lead to more struggles with an intriguing farmer. Does he have the strength to resist old temptations as well as a beautiful new one, too?

his family or therapy. Tremors quaked his body. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;">Phoebe tightened her grip on his hand. “Thank you for telling me,
Heath. I don’t take this lightly, and I’ll keep it confidential.” </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;">Nodding, he let out a pointed breath. His story was out, but safe.
Gratefulness released his shoulders, eased his lungs. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;">“Dayna must have been a cool person for you to be interested in her.” </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;">He stiffened. No more talk about her. He removed his hand from her
touch. “Thanks for listening. Let’s get back.” He counted to ten before she
released the break and turned the golf cart around. As it coasted to a stop at
the shelter, his boot touched the ground for a quick getaway, but she grabbed
his arm. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;">“Don’t you think she’d be upset knowing you feel this guilt about her?
Don’t you think she’d wish you a happy life, free of panic attacks?”</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;">Hot and cold pin pricks played havoc through his body. Fisting his
hands, he flattened his mouth and spoke quietly, careful to mask the anger
screaming for freedom. “Don’t think by knowing my story you have the right to
share your thoughts. Or give advice.” </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: #0c343d; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;">He pushed away from the cart, searching for something, anything to help
him release the roiling emotions and the longing for a different way to assuage
them.</span></p>

<blockquote><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Felicity Jin grew up literally hanging onto Mom’s apron strings in their magical bakery in the quaint town of Pixie, California. Her mother’s enchanted baked goods, including puffy pineapple buns and creamy egg tarts, bring instant joy to all who consume them. Felicity has always been hesitant in the kitchen herself after many failed attempts, but a takeout meal gone wrong inspires her to craft some handmade fortune cookies.</span></span></p>
</blockquote><blockquote><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">They become so popular that Felicity runs out of generic fortunes and starts making her own personalized predictions. When one customer’s ill-fated fortune results in his murder, Felicity’s suspiciously specific fortune has the police focusing on her as the main culprit. Now Felicity must find a way to turn her luck around and get cleared from suspicion.</span></span></p></blockquote><p><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><b style="font-family: verdana;">REVIEW:</b></span></p><p><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

quirky characters, interesting settings, and a sprinkle of cultural history . .
.</span></i></b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The author has created a strong ensemble
of characters for this new series. Gold Bakery owners/operators Felicity Jin
and her mother and Felicity's best friend, Kelvin, are the heart of the cast in
my opinion. The addition of Felicity's Godmother Alma plus some supporting
characters draw readers into the mystery involving the death of a Gold Bakery
customer.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Several settings were created by the
author in the fictional small town of Pixie located near Fresno in the Central
Valley of California. The Gold Bakery has an ambience that is unique and
appealing. The flower shop owned by Kelvin—Love Blooms—sounds like a place I
would love to visit; the mysterious candle shop owned by Alma—Paz Illuminations
adds some eccentricity to the story. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Several locales in Fresno are essential
to the plot. I liked the fact that a local landmark—Forestiere Underground
Gardens—became part of the adventure. (I visited this amazing California
Historical Landmark which is also part of the National Register of Historic
Sites a few decades ago. It was a very memorable experience.)</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The book's back matter includes a recipe
for Fated Fortune Cookies, Floral Tips from Love Blooms, and Candle
Embellishment from Paz Illuminations. Due to my personal hobbies of cooking and
gardening, I enjoyed this bonus content. </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">The story is completely clean in
language and content. I received a copy of this book from the publisher through
Great Escapes Virtual Book Tours. All of my thoughts and opinions shared here
are solely my own.</span></span></p>

</i><br />Series:</b> Apron Strings #2
<b><br />Author:</b> Amy Walsh
<b><br />Publisher:</b> Walsh Mountain Publishing
<b><br />Release Date:</b> February 15, 2024
<br /><b>Genre:</b> Historical Romance</span></p><p><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">
Finances are tight for the O’Dwyer family who live on a mountain outside of Scranton, Pennsylvania in 1931. Life gets even harder when their beloved Dadaí must cease work as a coal miner to become a patient at the West Mountain Sanitarium. </span></p><p><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">Nellie is her preferred name, but family and friends have heard Mam shout “Fenella Aileen O’Dwyer!” all too often with the countless predicaments she got herself into throughout childhood. So, it’s not altogether surprising when Nellie impulsively accepts a job as an assistant cook at the Clarinda House in a case of mistaken identity -- though she’s the last person her family would ask to prepare a meal.</span></p><p><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">Fortunately, along with determination, a talent for acting, and the gift of blarney, Nellie has Mrs. Campbell’s Cookery Book, a treasure she discovered at a Red Cross drought relief sale. </span></p><p><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">As her reluctant admiration for her employer grows, Nellie wishes she could be the sort of truthful woman of faith that Mr. Mason Peale esteems. If she confesses all, will she lose her job along with the friendships she’s formed at Clarinda House?

attention, her hands folded in front of her. “Good morning, Mr. Peale. I didn’t
see you there.”</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: 0.3in;"><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: helvetica; font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-bidi; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;">“It appears you didn’t wish to be seen either,” he said
dryly. He held a small broom and a dust pin in his hand as he backed away from
the coupe’s door and closed it. “My sisters had me drive them to deliver potted
flowers to patients at West Side Hospital last evening, and one of the pots
tipped over,” he explained. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: 0.3in;"><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: helvetica; font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-bidi; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;">That’s why she hadn’t seen him as she approached the
mansion. “You clean your own automobile?” she blurted. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: 0.3in;"><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: helvetica; font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-bidi; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;">“And sometimes my sisters deliver their own flowers.” His
smile was a tad mocking, Nellie decided. “Just because we live in a big house
doesn’t mean we are above normal human activities. I even don work clothes and
go down into the mines at times.”</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-indent: 0.3in;"><span style="color: #4c1130; font-family: helvetica; font-size: large; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-bidi; mso-font-kerning: 0pt;">“To make sure your underlings are underlinging?” Nellie
quipped.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She immediately wished she
could breathe her banter back in. </span></p>

</span></span></span></b><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color: #990000; font-family: Playfair Display;"><span><span style="font-size: large;"><span>I've always loved
Valentine's Day. When I was a teacher it was my favorite day of the school year
because it was a pleasure to watch the students think of others by giving out
Valentines, candies, and other treats to their classmates—and to their fortunate teacher.</span></span></span></span></b></p><b><span style="color: #990000; font-family: Playfair Display;"><span><span style="font-size: large;">
</span></span></span></b><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color: #990000; font-family: Playfair Display;"><span><span style="font-size: large;"><span>One of the math activities we
participated in during February when I taught first grade was a graphing
activity suggested by the 'Math Their Way' program. I had a large envelope
filled with many different Valentines I'd saved over the years. As I revealed
each Valentine card to my students, they voted on what category to place the card
in:<span> </span>Pretty, Funny, or Handmade.</span></span></span></span></b></p><b><span style="color: #990000; font-family: Playfair Display;"><span><span style="font-size: large;">
</span></span></span></b><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="color: #990000; font-family: Playfair Display;"><span><span style="font-size: large;"><span>After we had them all sorted,
we made a large graph on poster paper with those three categories listed. Each
student wrote his/her name on a heart cut-out and glued it in the column (or
row) of the type of Valentine he/she liked best. I always chose 'Handmade' as
my favorite because I've been creating cards and gifts with paper, paint, glue,
fabric, thread, buttons, etc., since I was a young girl.</span></span></span></span></b></p><b><span style="color: #990000; font-family: Playfair Display;"><span><span style="font-size: large;">
</span></span></span></b><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: #990000; font-family: Playfair Display;"><span><span style="font-size: large;"><span>Here are photos of a few of the
vintage Valentines from my collection along with a handmade fabric card I made
a few years ago. The sweet red plastic heart pin was given to me when I was a child
by one of my neighborhood friends. The pretty pink wooden box with the
flower decal and 'For Mrs. JJ' lettering was made for me by one of my students

the end of his life, I asked my 'Uncle Allen' how he met his
wife. He shared about how he met 'Irene' at a church social in their
neighborhood in New Orleans in the early 1940s. He had been seriously
wounded in Guadalcanal in the South Pacific as a young Marine and was
using crutches to get around as best he could. He had many inner wounds
which needed time to heal, too.<br /><br />He had no way of knowing when
they first met that Irene had suffered her own wartime tragedy. She
bravely sought to keep her grief locked away deep inside because
thinking about her loss caused her even more sorrow. She needed to be
strong because she was the breadwinner for her small family.<br /><br />Times
were tough, but these two unique individuals made it through each day
with faith, fortitude, determination, and the sincere hope of something
greater just over the horizon. This inspirational short story follows
the growth of Allen and Irene's relationship beginning with their chance
meeting and leading forward to a lifetime spent together. <i>'Handmade
Hearts'</i> was created to honor this unique couple's love for and devotion
to each other in a relationship which spanned seven decades.<br /><br />This book is completely clean in language and content.</span></span></b></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><span><b><span style="color: #990000;"><span> </span></span></b></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;"><span>💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘</span></span></b></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><span style="color: #990000;"><span> </span></span></b></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet; font-size: large;"><span><b><span style="color: #990000;"><span>EXCERPT: </span></span></b></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet;"><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

Something that troubles me nearly as much as the fact that an unknown man seems to have already claimed me as his. </span></p><p><span style="color: #073763; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;">Trouble is, my admirer has a jealous side, and it's not long before Lance is pulled into the crosshairs right alongside me…

the sound of Lance’s voice then turn just in time to see Lance stroll into the
kitchen. His arm is out of the sling, and I narrow my gaze at him. “If you put
your arm back in the sling.”</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"><span> </span>His crooked
grin twists my insides. “I’m supposed to stretch it.”</span></p>

you’re not. There are still stitches in there. You were shot yesterday.”</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"><span> </span>Without
another word, he turns and retrieves the sling from his office then slips it
over his neck and slides his arm into it. “Coffee now? Please take mercy on me,
Ms. Pierce.” </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #073763; font-family: verdana; font-size: large;"><span> </span>“Since you

coming easier to me than it has in a long time, even with the threat against my
life. Why? I’m not entirely sure, though I suspect it has a lot to do with the
man standing before me.

the rumbles of aftershocks, keeping their feet beneath them was next to
impossible. She prayed there was a way out at the end of the tunnel. <br /><br />Because if not, they’d be buried here along with the enemy’s secrets.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #20124d; font-family: arial; font-size: large;"><b>PURCHASE LINKS</b>:</span><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;"> <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/146145532-deadly-mountain-escape" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Goodreads</a> | <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0C3HT9VPX" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Amazon</a> | <a href="https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/deadly-mountain-escape-mary-alford/1143400045" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Barnes & Noble</a> | <a href="https://www.christianbook.com/deadly-mountain-escape/9781335597885/pd/597885" rel="noopener" target="_blank">ChristianBook</a> | <a href="https://bookshop.org/p/books/deadly-mountain-escape-original-mary-alford/20055023" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Bookshop</a> | <a href="https://www.bookbub.com/books/deadly-mountain-escape-by-mary-alford" rel="noopener" target="_blank">BookBub</a></span></span>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="color: #073763;"><b><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14pt;">Detective James Cross has been honorably
discharged from the Army Criminal Investigation Division due to wounds
sustained when an IED blew up near him. Now with the Lake City Police
Department, he's rooming with this good buddy and partner, Cole, while he
figures out his family dynamics.<br />
<br />
Physician Assistant Lainie Jackson is eighteen months out from an attempted
murder perpetrated by her ex, which ended when she managed to grab the weapon
and shoot him. When he appears to have survived and is back to finish the job
he started, Lainie insists it's not possible. But someone keeps trying to kill
her, and she keeps seeing his face.<br />
<br />
Together, Lainie and James must work together to find out who, exactly, is
after her and why he wants her dead. And failure is not an option.<br />

<p data-pm-slice="1 1 []"><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>Title:</b> <b><i>The Rare Jewel of Everleigh Wheaton
</i><br />Series:</b> The Treasures of Halstead Manor
<b><br />Author:</b> Susan L. Tuttle
<b><br />Publisher:</b> Kregel
<br /><b>Release Date:</b> January 16, 2024
<b><br />Genre:</b> Women's Fiction / Romance</span></span></p><p>
<span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><i><b>In her search for a rare gem, will Everleigh end up uncovering the true treasure of her heart?</b></i> </span></span></p><p><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Personal care nurse Everleigh Wheaton knows it only takes a few well-placed lies to ruin a reputation. She's experienced it time and time again. But there's a silver lining to repeatedly proving herself: she's confident and self-reliant. </span></span></p><p><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">When she loses yet another job and an enigmatic stranger offers her a potential way out, she's game. After all, she loves a good mystery, and an invitation to visit the legendary Halstead Manor is irresistible. But she's not about to let her guard down--especially with the other women who received the same invitation. </span></span></p><p><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">A strange voice on the phone tells them he's gathered the three of them to work together as treasure hunters. The first assignment requires Everleigh to be a traveling nurse for retired FBI agent Gertrude Levine, who has one cold case she just can't let go of: the Florentine diamond that went missing when the Austrian Empire fell. </span></span></p><p><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">With Everleigh's keen ability to solve puzzles, Natalie Daughtry's vast knowledge of history, and Brooke Sumner's connections to the antiques world, they're bound to track down the diamond. Except that Gertie's nephew, Niles Butler, doesn't trust Everleigh's innocent act . . . even if he finds himself falling for her. Worse, Everleigh's walls of self-preservation may doom the entire team. </span></span></p><p><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Hints of real-life historical events combined with contemporary characters make this first book in the Treasures of Halstead Manor series a masterful blend of romance, mystery, and strong female friendships. Readers of authors like Denise Hunter and Nicole Deese who enjoy unfolding relationships and the organic discovery of God's love will relish this new series.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b>EXCERPT:</b></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">As Everleigh left her second stop, her eyes snagged on a
vehicle in her rearview that raised her suspicion. By the time she pulled away
from her apartment, that suspicion was confirmed. Someone was following her.
The same silver sedan had been on her tail since she’d pulled out of Kroger. If
she had her guess, Palmer had sent someone to watch her. Might as well find out
if she was right.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Spotting a strip mall ahead anchored by a coffee shop,
Everleigh pulled into the lot. She joined the drive-through line and ordered a
toffee nut latte—might as well enjoy the excuse for a midday pick-me- up. The
sedan had parked at the far side of the lot, providing whoever sat behind the
wheel with a perfect view of the exit. The way they’d parked, however,
prevented them from seeing the end of the drive-through line.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Everleigh swung around and approached the sedan slowly. If
she thought about it too long, common sense could nix her impulse. Instead, she
gunned it, parking at an angle with her passenger door practically touching
their front bumper. Taking off her sunglasses, she met the surprised gaze of
the person who’d been following her.</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #20124d; font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: arial;">“You!”</span></span></p>

</span></span></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><i><span>Bubba and Squirt’s City of Bones</span></i><span> was originally
written in past tense. After much thought, I changed it to present tense
because I felt it would add to the suspense. Readers can experience the
adventure along with Bubba and Squirt without knowing if it’s all going to turn
out okay.</span></span></b></span></p>

</span></span></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Paris
is a place I’ve visited many times, so naturally, I wanted to use it as a
setting in one of my Bubba and Squirt Adventures. The underground catacombs
seemed the perfect arrival place for them. Totally creepy!</span></b></span></p>

</span></span></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;">There’s
a scene where Squirt is looking at a sculpture of a young ballerina (Little
Dancer of Fourteen Years by Edgar Degas). She mentions that it’s the same one
on the necklace her grandmother gave her after her first dance recital. The
real-life inspiration was when my daughter’s grandmother gave her that necklace
after her first dance recital. It’s a special memory!</span></b></span></p>

</span></span></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;">My
favorite treat in Paris is hazelnut, chocolate, and banana crepes. Street
vendors make them, and they are absolutely the best! Bubba and Squirt have some
while they’re in Paris. I’ve shared the recipe in the back of the book so
readers can enjoy them at home.</span></b></span></p>

</span></span></span></i><span>The original <i>City of Bones</i>was called <i>Art
Thieves in Paris.</i> It was written ten years ago and was intended to be part
of an open-ended series. Since then, I’ve revamped the story line, making books
three, four, and five of the Bubba and Squirt series part of a trilogy. The
original story is still part of the final version, but I’ve added more magic
and mythical creatures.<span> </span></span></span></b></span></p><p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: center; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b style="color: #660000;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span>* * * * * * * *</span><span><span> <br /></span></span></span></b></span></p><p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b style="color: #660000;"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span>5 Interesting Facts about the Catacombs

</span></span></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;">The

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><b style="color: #660000;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><span>I previously read and reviewed the
author's <i>'Bubba and Squirt's Mayan Adventure,' </i>the second book in this series. I
feel this new book can be read as a standalone.</span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><b style="color: #660000;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><span>Once again, siblings Bubba and Squirt

finding their missing father. </span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><b style="color: #660000;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><span>The brother and sister dig up the
entrance to a tunnel under the sycamore tree in their back yard so they can
travel to France. The passage about their journey will delight youngsters who
are fans of fantasy.</span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><b style="color: #660000;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><span>While in Paris the pair's adventures
gain momentum. With the help of some new friends who know the city very well,
Bubba and Squirt wander through some of the great sites of Paris—the Eiffel
Tower, the Muse</span><span>é</span><span>
d'Orsay, the Tuileries Garden, and the Louvre Museum. Readers are introduced to
descriptions about French architecture, art, and some unexpected and creepy
historical locales I didn't know about prior to reading this book!</span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><b style="color: #660000;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><span>The back matter in this book is
extensive and exceptional. Facts about some of the sites and events in the
story are included along with a bibliography of books for children to read
about Paris. A Glossary of French Words, Numbers (English to French
translation), a Recipe, a Bibliography, and a Map of France will aid in
answering questions readers may have about the experiences of the main
characters. </span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;"><b style="color: #660000;"><span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;"><span>Highly-recommended for middle-grade
readers who are fans of fantasy, adventure, and historical fiction stories. The
author has filled this story with the rich history of France by blending fact
with fiction. This book is completely clean in language and content.</span></span></b></p>

for Christmas is </span><a href="https://amzn.to/3T0WCXM"><i><span>Once Upon the Very First Christmas</span></i></a><span> by country music singer & gentle farmer Rory
Feek. He and illustrator Christine Cuddihy have beautifully captured those
precious & unpredictable moments that pop up in a children’s Christmas
pageant. The bright colors, gentle farm scenes, and even a few chuckles tucked
away in the pictures combine with the lyrical lilt of the text and the timeless
hope of the Christmas story to make this a book that families will enjoy
reading each holiday season!</span></span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #274e13;"><b><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;"><span> <br /></span></span></b><b><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;"><span></span></span></b></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqZVe124DcEWTA3KplMnGIa_iW_-sO-bKbN-3b7ByPzVcB5WkQurWTi9qGcEuTHUwG3QlpoLqh5KbhbO0xAGe9ITV1GAbP4g3AesswnY3XTr2YDgpeARUOJslRoGRd0o_zfYh5x8Z4hsqWDVDzsOqowTkrSCjmpSa93NfeREkZlEp47fpL9Ky9Bo5qzgw/s346/the%20best%20christmas%20pageant%20ever.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="346" data-original-width="233" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqZVe124DcEWTA3KplMnGIa_iW_-sO-bKbN-3b7ByPzVcB5WkQurWTi9qGcEuTHUwG3QlpoLqh5KbhbO0xAGe9ITV1GAbP4g3AesswnY3XTr2YDgpeARUOJslRoGRd0o_zfYh5x8Z4hsqWDVDzsOqowTkrSCjmpSa93NfeREkZlEp47fpL9Ky9Bo5qzgw/w134-h200/the%20best%20christmas%20pageant%20ever.jpg" width="134" /></a></span></b></div><p></p>

Christmas is </span><a href="https://amzn.to/47HW79v"><i><span>The Best Christmas Pageant Ever </span></i><span>by Barbara Robinson</span></a><span>. (Apparently I really enjoy children’s books set around Christmas
pageants lol) This comedy of errors, complete with difficult-but-hurting
children and life lessons galore, will tug at your heart and your funny bone.
What I love most about it is that the Herdman kids strip away the ‘church
answers’ (because they don’t know them) and bring the story to the human level,
helping us remember that it happened to real people just like us. Adults will
love it just as much – maybe even more – than the kids.</span></span></b></p>
