Texas Twin Abduction by Virginia Vaughan
This engaging novel was both suspenseful and cleverly crafted. The characters are well-developed, and the plot kept me intrigued and turning the page.

Deputy Lawson Avery appears on the scene of the accident and rescues her, realizing the girl who walked out on their wedding years ago, had returned, only, she doesn’t remember him or anyone else.

God is Not Our Virtual Assistant by DiAnn Mills
Recently, I heard a speaker state God was a virtual assistant. The claim didn’t resonate with me. In fact, it irritated me, so I dug deeper for a definition and the qualifications for a virtual assistant. A virtual assistant is self-employed and generally works from home to assist a client or clients with professional, technical, communication, and creative advice. Nothing spiritual in that definition. The need for a virtual assistant is basic: reduce our work load, give us more time personally and professionally, and flexibility. Nothing spiritual there either. To be among the five-star virtual assistants, one must: Express him/herself…

Breach of Trust by Rachel Dylan
This legal thriller escalated into a suspenseful from the beginning and didn’t slow up until the end. From the onset, I grew suspicious of every character which kept me turning the page. Rachel Dylan did a fabulous job of keeping the action rolling and the reader guessing. Mia Shaw, a corporate litigator, discovers the brutally murdered body of her co-worker when she arrives at his apartment with balloons to celebrate his first successful year at Finley & Hughes.
