A little bit about what you'll find reviewed here

A little bit about what you'll find reviewed on this blog: I believe the best books involve characters you wish you could read more about long after the book is finished. Recently, I've been searching for hidden gems from the past. I read mostly fiction, and I'm a bit of a prude. I don't normally enjoy books with sex or excessive language.

Who I am:
I raised two wonderful girls, and I'm super proud of them. I enjoy reading (of course), sewing, cross stitching, photography and writing. I live in the high desert portion of Washington (which I didn't know existed until my husband and I decided to move here) and have really enjoyed my time out here. I am excited to see what God has next in store for my life!

Caught by Surprise (Apart From the Crowd #3) - Jen Turano


This is the third book in the series.  First is a novella, At Your Request.  Then the first two books of the series are Behind the Scenes and Out of the Ordinary.  This book wraps up the series in a neat little bow with an epilogue at the end, so if you’ve read the first two, you’ll get resolution for everyone.  If you haven’t read the other two, you’ll still be able to read this one and not feel lost.

Temperance Flowerdew has been abducted.  Trapped in a coffin, she discovers that her bumbling kidnappers have the wrong Flowerdew.  Apparently, her cousin has taken it upon herself to trap Temperance’s good friend, Gilbert, into marriage.  Now that Temperance and Gilbert have been thrown together again, and in such circumstances, Gilbert insists that they need to be married.

Gilbert doesn’t just want to marry Temperance to save her reputation.  His feelings for her are growing, but she keeps insisting they aren’t suited and would kill each other within a few weeks if they married.  Lives are in danger, and unraveling this mystery will involve not one, but two, families.

I liked this book.  As usual, the characters are quirky and lovable.  If I had to pick a favorite for this series, I’d have to say it was Out of the Ordinary.  I just really loved the tale of Harrison and Gertrude.  Back to this one, it’s a good tale and definitely worth reading.  Good Book!

*I received a copy of this book from Bethany House through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
