Edge of Dusk (Annie Pederson #1) by Colleen Coble


 


Annie is a law enforcement ranger and widow. She has a young daughter, Kylie. She is trying to run the Tremolo Resort and Marina in Rock Harbor left to her by her father as well as do her job and be a great mom. Jon Dustan, Annie's former love comes back to help his ailing father and fix up his cottage for sale. Together they get embroiled in the mystery that is occurring at the resort and in Annie's enforcement area.

I enjoyed this story and always read anything that shows up from Colleen Coble. She's a favorite author of mine.

The Element of Love (The Lumber Baron's Daughters #1) by Mary Connealy


 



Laura and her sisters are forced to flee the machinations of a wicked step-father.  They travel as far away as they are able and end up part of Caleb's mission near the California gold camps.  Each one of them is looking for a husband so they can have their inheritance from their father and thwart the evil schemes of their step-father.  As always, Mary Connealy's stories do not disappoint.  Looking forward to the rest of this series!

The Prince and the Prodigal by Jill Eileen Smith


 


This is the Biblical account of Joseph and his brothers. Jill Eileen Smith has a unique way of showing what life was like at the time and fleshing out the scriptures into a full blown story. I have loved all of her work so far. I really enjoyed this account.

The Souls of Lost Lake by Jaime Jo Wright


 



Wren Blythe lives at a church camp with her father and older brother.  Her best friend Eddie lives there with his parents.  Both work at the camp.  A small child has gone missing and they join in the search and rescue effort.  Running parallel to this story is the story of Ava Coons who right around 1920 wandered into town dragging a bloody ax and began the legend and campfire story of Ava Coons.  


This is a somewhat strange story that pulls the happenings in this small community over a century and the lives of these people together.  It comes to a startling conclusion.  I'm still pondering whether I want to read this type of Christian "suspense" in the future.
