A Vow For Always by Wanda E Brunstetter

Well, we finally get to the end, Book 6 in the 6 part Discovery Series. This book ties everything together. As Luke remembers more and more of his past and who he is, Meredith prepares for her wedding to Jonah. Amid apprehension Meredith continues to plan while counting down the days. Will Luke remember in time to stop the wedding? You will have to read the series to find out!

I loved the whole book but was not fond of the 6 parts of it. Ms. Brunstetter's books are so good that you just want to keep reading and reading, not stop every 80 or so pages to wait for the next one. I cannot wait for her next book but I sincerely hope she does not do it in this format again.

Revelation In Autumn by Wanda Brunstetter

"I think I know my name! It's Luke!" says Eddie out of the blue one day in this, Book 5 of the Discovery Series. As Luke's memory begins to return in bits and pieces will he remember in time to get home to Meredith before her life changes forever? Meredith, having given birth to a beautiful baby boy named Levi, Meredith is wondering if marrying Jonah would be a good move, not just for her, but Levi as well. She will never love anyone like she loved Luke so she is undecided. Financial worries are also weighing heavily on her mind and she considers moving back in with her parents. What will she do? Wait for the 6th and final book in this great series to find out!

The Pieces Of Summer by Wanda E Brunstetter

In this, Book 4 of the Discovery Series, we find Meredith getting closer to Jonah, her old friend, and worrying about how she will raise her baby when it is born, any day now. Meanwhile, as "Eddie" continues to improve he wonders if he will ever get his memory back and find out who he is. He agrees to stay at the home of the grandparents of one of his nurses to continue his recovery. Will he form an attachment to her not knowing who he is? Just as I think everything is going along as planned Meredith goes into heavy, rapid labor - in her sisters buggy! Will they get help in time? Next book please!

The Hope Of Spring by Wanda E. Brunstetter

This is getting so frustrating! I just get to a good part and it ends! Then I have to wait for the next installment to find out what happens next! In this, Book 3 of the Discovery Series, we find, one one hand Meredith trying to cope with losing her husband, finding out she is pregnant, and wondering how she is going to pay the bills now that Luke is gone. Meanwhile, in a hospital not that far away there is a man who was found badly beaten in a bus station who has not regained consciousness and may never. Could it be? Well, just when you think you might get the answer the book ends. I can't wait for the next installment to find out what happens! This is a great series even if it is frustrating to read it this way!

The Quarryman's Bride by Tracie Peterson

I really enjoyed this book. The story of Emmalyne and Tavin grabs your heart and you find yourself rooting for them right from the beginning. This book is an easy, light read and as with all Ms. Peterson's books, draws you into the story from the first page. This is Book 2 in the Land Of Shining Water series but is a stand alone. It can be easily read by itself. I recommend this book to anyone looking for a good book to get into.

I was given a copy of this book by netgalley.com in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to netgalley.com and Tracie Peterson for the opportunity to read and review this wonderful book.

The Silence Of Winter by Wanda E Brunstetter

This is book 2 in the Discovery series and is a continuation of the story of Meredith and Luke. This book in the series tells the story of how Meredith deals with finding out she is pregnant and losing her husband all at the same time. As with all of Ms. Brunstetter's books, this one grabs you from the first page and doesn't let go. Since these books are novellas they are short. Before you know it you are at the end and can't wait for the next one to find out what happens next. The good thing about this book being broken into parts is you can't read ahead to find out if there is a happily ever after. You just have to wait for the next installment.

Thank you netgalley.com for giving me a copy in exchange for an honest review. I cannot wait for the next part. This series is a definite must read!
