James Patterson does it again with 12th of Never


I don't read a lot of secular fiction books. Most of the secular books can get to romantic and are left with no plot. I started reading Patterson books when there was a short run of a tv series called Women's Murder Club. It was based on the books by Patterson, of which there are 12 books now. The book series is about 4 women, a cop, DA, medical examiner and journalist who come together to solve murders in their fair town! 

All of the books in this series leave you hanging on every word and the pages flying. 

For book 12, the women are plagued by a civilian who keeps dreaming of murders to the smallest detail, and them coming true. The civilian has an alibi for all the murders even his own!
We have a missing body from the morgue, a sick baby and lots of laughter in between the drama. 
Every time I pick up a Women's Murder Book I feel like I'm going back to visit old friends.

Dangerous Mercy ~ Kathy Herman


Dangerous Mercy ~ This book is the second one in the Secrets of Roux River Bayou series by Kathy Herman. There is a bathtub killer on the loose in Les Barbes (in southern Louisiana). The killer is targeting CEO's and presidents of major companies that have had major layoffs and cut-backs. The killer is killing in the bathtubs and spray painting numbers on the walls. This is an intense thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seats, and flipping the pages. 

Toward the end of the book, one of the characters, Adele Woodmore, starts singing a song, In The Garden. This song is my Mom, Aunt's, and Grandmothers favorite song. It was my grandmothers song and it was played at her funeral. The day I finished the book and came across the song was the same evening my mom and aunt had spent the day with family. The family was burying my cousins husband who died in a motorcycle accident over the weekend. It was a Total God Thing for me to come across this song the same evening my family was encountering such a great loss to the family. 

Jennifer ~ An O'Malley Love Story


Dee Henderson is an Awesome writer who I love to talk about. Her books are ones to own and cherish through the years. This book that I read in a day, is her latest and greatest story. 
Jennifer is a Pediatrician who falls in love and learns to trust God all while discovering she has spinal cancer. This original O'Malley series starts right after this books ends.....a few weeks after this book ends. If you want to start falling in love with the entire O'Malley family......Start here! 

Even though I have read all of these books, when I finished Jennifer I wanted to jump into the rest of the series all over again.

Here is the link for the 1st two books in the O'Malley Series
