Love Me Forever

Love Me Forever by Muriel Jensen

This is a beautiful book. Two people falling in love and will not tell each other, afraid as to what the other one would think.

The man has had too much happen to him  and not wanting to get married until his debts are paid off, does not want her to know that he is falling in love with her but does not want to accept help from her.

The woman afraid to fall in love, has finally found a man that will help her raise her daughters, then an accident leaves her with no job, no business, and almost costs her her life.  How will she ever get the man to forget all that happened to him, and fall in love with her?

This book I won from Good Reads.  I gave it 5 stars. Loved the characters, the story line, and a great read.

It's just you and me Lord

It's just you and me Lord   by Marion Stroud

A collection of prayers for everyday life for women from marriage to old age.Its a great book, I read it every night before going to bed. Helps you think about things, has quotes from the
bible and others.

  The quote I like the best is:
" Yesterday is a cancelled cheque.
 Tomorrow is a promissory note.
 Today is the only cash you have,
 so spend it wisely."
Kim Lyons.


I hope they make a Volume two. I gave it  5 stars.

Always Florence

Always Florence by Muriel Jensen

I love the characters in this book. The little boys Dylan and Sheamus who have lost their parents are so real my heart went to them. They have gone to live with their Uncle Nate, (the hero in the story) who up until his brother and sister in law were killed lived a single life and enjoyed every minute of it.

Now the three of them are learning to live together as a family when the boys meet new neighbor Bonnie Molloy, a recovering cancer patient by wrecking her art studio and the book just keeps getting better and better as you read. I gave it 5 stars.

The is a second one out called “Love Me Forever” which I won from Good Reads and will be reading it next.

I want to thank Muriel Jensen for her kindness in sending me both the first and second books in this stand along series. Great read!
