I have read only one of her books before this one and it had several curse words but no explicit sexual material that I could remember. However, I do not remember which curse words it included. Even though I usually read Christian fiction or clean fiction, I decided to give this author one more try because this book had my favorite North Carolina attraction in it which is Biltmore Estate. This novel is a split time novel which is set during the time of the Vanderbilts and also present day. I was disappointed but not surprised that this book also had curse words in it. Because I could not remember if there was any sexual material in her previous book I read and any sexual innuendos, I was not sure what to expect of that in this one. I was hoping that there would not be any but there was some which though were more than I would have liked they at least were short. This book was from the point of view of three women and some a little disjointed at times even though two of the women were related. I personally do not want to read anymore books by this author due to the curse words and slight sexual material. I would have enjoyed it much better and passed it on to someone else if those things had not been included. I also do not think the story would have suffered without them; in fact, I feel the story would have been much better if they had been left out.
Review of “Love on a Whim” by Suzanne Woods Fisher
This is the third novel in the Cape Cod Creamery series. The main female character is Brynn Haywood and she is the best friend of the main female character from the first novel in the series. I absolutely loved this book. However, when I finished this novel, I found myself wanting it to last longer. I would really love it if the author wrote another book in this series. Overall, I would recommend this read.
Review of “Hidden in the Night” by Elizabeth Goddard
I really like books by Elizabeth Goddard. This is the third in the Missing in Alaska series. Even though the books build on each other some, you can still read it even if you have not read the previous two books. This novel has several things going on that I tried to piece together while reading it. Also, there was more to Ivy’s story than was originally told and I kept trying to figure that out as well. I thought that there was a good balance with romance and suspense. I would definitely recommend this novel.
I received a complimentary copy from the publisher. The opinions in this review are my own.
