Unspoken
Charlotte Graham's world was turned upside down when she was younger when she was kidnapped and trapped in a house for four years. After giving up hope that anyone would ever find her the cops bust in one day and save her.
Flash forward years later and she shows up back to sell of her grandfathers coin collection to Bryce Bishop a local coin shop owner. Little does he know at the time that Charlotte isn't who he thinks she is and that things in his life will never be the same.
My Review:
This is the third new release of Dee Henderson's that I have read. I thought that she did a good job with this book but it was not one of my favorite books that I have read of hers. I thought in many ways that it was predictable and could have been a shorter novel than it was. There was only one storyline in the book that I did not expect that she had in there.
One success that I think Dee always has with her books is that she really develops her characters very well. You as the reader really feel that you know the individual and could be a friend or family member of theirs. In addition, I also think that she does a good job of setting the scenes in the book. I really felt like I was at the different locations that she described in the book.
I would recommend this book to author christian readers but I would not say that this is the best work that I have read of Dee's.
Welcome to Kortney and Olivers Reading Nook. I am an avid reader who started reading when I was in middle school and haven't put a book down since. I read a variety of genres and many different authors! Most of my friends and family would say that it is a rare to not see me with a book in my hand or an e-reader. Happy Reading!

Review of A Simple Crossroads by Rosalind Lauer
A Simple Crossroads by Rosalind Lauer
Lizzy King has almost everything a young Amish woman could ask for: a loving husband, a good job and a roof over her head. However, the one thing that is missing from life seems like it will never happen and that is to have a child of her own.
Nita has always had a loving family and a good job. However, the thing that she wants the most is to able to spend time with the man she loves. But her parents have other plans for her including working at their dance studio rather than in the deli where she is able to see her boyfriend.
Together Lizzy and Nita most rely on each other to hear what is in their hearts and make the best choice!
My Review:
This was the 3rd book/novella that I have read of Rosalind's and it was just as good as the two I read prior. I though she did a good job of developing the characters and storyline. I was exactly sure at the beginning the way she was going to go with Lizzy's story but after reading a couple chapters it made more sense. In addition, I liked that she involved characters from previous books so you were able to catch up on what they were doing.
I think this was a quick and easy read that both christian fiction and romance readers alike would enjoy. I would recommend to read this book on a weekend or a vacation due to it was hard for me to put it down!
Can't wait to see more books from this author and to read her other series!
