I loved reading this book which was the start to a new series called Hidden Bay. There were so many unexpected twists and turns with lots of mystery and suspense- I loved it! Once I started reading, I couldn’t put it down.

Both Remi and Hawk find themselves at the same lodge in Washington state-one is trying to forget the past, the other one is desperately trying to remember. I really liked both of the main characters. They were both strong and determined, along with helping each other to figure out who was targeting them and wanted them dead.

If you like on the edge of your seat, clean Christian fiction-you will love this new book and series! I found it inspirational and intriguing! I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions and views expressed are my own.

“Learn the science, apply the science and change your life”! I love in the very beginning of her book that the author explains a crucial step in the weight loss process is commitment to action. This book has a lot of great suggestions, including making faith and God a part of your health journey! Throughout the chapters she includes scripture references and journaling prompts. She also goes into detail of the signs of food/sugar addiction and all the research that she’s learned along the way on her own health journey.

Her book includes lifestyle rules and her top five resources that I also found interesting to look up. I really liked her HEART acronym with viewing health and wellness:

Handle your emotions.
Examine your thoughts.
Ask for motivation.
Run with courage.
Take action!

I recommend reading this book if you want practical tips and read research about sugar addiction to help improve your body, mind and spiritual health!

My Review:

I absolutely loved this holiday heartwarming story! It reminded me of all the feel good hallmark Christmas movies I love to watch!

I loved getting to know Maple Glen Vermont and the McAllister family. The setting was so descriptive, it made me feel like I was there hiking in the snow and drinking hot chocolate with them around the fire.

Devon visits Maple Glen in honor of her late brother but ends up getting rescued by firefighter Finn and his family when she has an accident hiking. The McAllister family dynamics with multiple generations all living together in the same house was realistic with the expectations, miscommunication, patience, and grace towards each other.  I liked getting to know their family and town and how they befriended a total stranger and made her feel loved and welcomed in their home.

I really enjoyed reading this clean romance by the Harlequin Heartwarming series! I can’t wait to read more books from Maple Glen Vermont.

Welcome to the Takeover + Review Blitz for The Queen’s Cook by Tessa Afshar hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!

About the Book

Title: The Queen’s Cook

I have always loved the story of Esther in the bible, so I was excited to read this new  “Queen Esther’s Court” series.
This rich historical fiction drama is set in Ancient Persia and follows the fictitious story of Roxannah who becomes one of Queen Esther’s cooks in the palace. I like that the chapters alternate between Roxannah and Adin’s point of views, who is the local physician and her friend.

Roxannah has to prove herself to the other cooks in the kitchen as the new girl, but along the way finds her place with the others and her faith. I loved reading about all the mouthwatering recipes she made throughout this book. It made me so hungry!

If you like reading biblical fiction, then definitely check out this book and other books by this author.
