A Dream to Share by Irene Hannon (Heartland Homecoming) Love Inspired 431 - Feb 08 Mark Campbell is a playboy. I didn't like him much. Until his father sends him to a small Missouri town that rolls up its sidewalks at 6 pm. Mark can either find something useful or useless to do with his time. Thankfully, he chooses the former and I start to like him as a hero. And then we find out why he is the way he is. Abby Warner is the workaholic editor of a small town newspaper that Mark's father is looking to acquire. Mark is told to take 3 months doing a financial and operational audit of the newspaper. Shouldn't be too bad with a pretty lady like Abby to spend time with at the end of the day. Except Abby keeps her door closed and avoids Mark like the plague. -------------- Heat Level: Affectionate (kissing and hand holding but nothing more) My Rating: Very Good - 4 stars (excellent one time read) -------------- Books in the Heartland Homecoming series: 1 - Nov 07 - From This Day Fo...

From This Day Forward by Irene Hannon (Heartland Homecoming) Love Inspired 419 - Nov 07 I really enjoyed this book. I'm always sad when I hear a couple is splitting up after years of marriage whether they have children or not. In this book, Sam and Cara Martin are childless which seems to be a blessing to their hectic lives especially when they separate. The story starts about a year after their separation. Cara has suffered a traumatic experience that triggers extreme panic attacks. After an exhausting month with no sleep where she huddles in her home refusing to go anywhere, she accepts an invitation from her husband for refuge. But she makes it clear that one betrayal was enough. She'll never trust him again. Sam was an esteemed surgeon when he realized he was human. A patient's spouse took offense and ended his career as he knew it. And he took it out on Cara. Her leaving was his wake up call. Unable to operate, he moved to small town America and became a family practi...

All Our Tomorrows by Irene Hannon Love Inspired #357 - Jul 06 I love reading books where one person loves another from afar but they put their feelings aside for the good of the other. This was the case in All Our Tomorrows. Two years ago, reporter Caroline James and her fiancé were on assignment in the Middle East when a suicide bomber attacked and Caroline had to go on with her life...alone. Devastated, she returned home to St. Louis, to recuperate in her mother's arms. Caroline thinks she's moved on until one day, her mother happens to mention the name of David Sloan, brother of her slain fiancé. Caroline goes into shock. The last 2 years are swept away in a tidal wave of grief. And guilt. David's had feelings for Caroline since the first time he saw her walk into his mother's house on his brother's arm but he hid his emotions under a cloak of guilt even after his brother died. Was it God's plan that brought Caroline into his life once again? I loved watching...
