Goodbye to Yesterday by Wanda Brunstetter


 Goodbye to Yesterday (Discovery Series #1)



Hey all you Wanda Brunstetter lovers... here is another great book from our favorite writer.
Luke and Meredith Stoltzfus are a young married couple that are going through some of the same struggles that we are all facing or have faced. Luke loses his job at the furniture store even though he is a talented woodworker, this starts a frustration inside of him as he is not able to provide for his family.
As he is struggling with his being laid off, not meeting bills, and all the extra stress that comes with problems. The one peron he pushes away and hides his feelings from is his wife. Will this hurt their relationship, will they become close again? Meredith is going through her own stress with having no money coming in, Luke does not want her to get a job and should she tell him her big secret?
As a new job becomes available can Luke rise to the occasion and learn the trade? Can Meredith keep her secret? Will this new job be a blessing or will it just bring more trying times for this young couple?
This was a great book. I love that Ms. Brunstetter went with a little bit of a different type of book- its thin, tall and part 1 of a 6 set series.
I received this book free of charge from Handlebar Publishing. In return for the book all that they asked me to do was share my honest review of the book with others. I hope you enjoy reading this book as much as I did.

Whispers in the Wind by Lauraine Snelling

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Cassie Lockwood is alone in the world since both her mother and father have passed away. She sets off on an adventure after the Wild West Show she has grown-up preforming in is closed for good. All she has is a wagon, 3 friends, and some various animals that do tricks.

Where will she go now that her life has changed so drastically? What will she find waiting for her when she goes to the ranch that her father owns half of? Will they accept her claim on the land?

This was a good book to curl-up and read. You can easily put yourself in her position as she leaves the only life she has ever known. To go on an adventure to see what fate will deal her next. This book carries you along on that adventure, keeping you wondering what might happen next.

Well written and a good afternoon read. I thank Bethany House for sending me a free copy. All they ask in return is for me to write a review on the book. I woudl suggest reading this book, or giving it as a gift.
