Christmas Gifts

I have always enjoyed Gail Gaymer Martin's books and this one is no exception. Small Town Christmas is part of a special two-in- one Christmas novel. It is a heartwarming story of love and faith in action. Teacher Amy Carroll and widowed father Mike Russet get off to a rough start when his seven-year -old twins act up in her class. A beautiful love story unfolds and Gail once again gives us a wonderful book to curl up with! I highly recommend this book for a great Christmas holiday read.

A Family Of Their Own

I loved this book! Author Gail Gaymer Martin has created a beautiful story of forgiveness and learning to trust even when your heart has been broken .This is the second book in The Dreams Come True series. Single mom Kelsey Rhodes meets Ross Sasburg, a widowed single dad. Their daughters, Lucy and Peyton, are both struggling with serious illnesses. Despite much discouragement from friends and outsiders, they discover they understand each other like no one else and learn to forgive those who have hurt them. Gail has become one of my favorite authors. Looking forward to reading more of her books!

Conversations with God

Conversations with God will answer questions you have wondered about for years. The book is divided into seven sections with Bible references and notes in the back. The sections are: God, Jesus, The Bible, Life, Prayer, Relationships and Good and Evil. Easy to understand for both new believers and long term Christian women, this book reads like a dialogue with God and Jesus and several well known characters in the Bible. It would make an excellent Bible study for Christian women. Some of the questions you will have answered are: Why don't you prevent disasters from happening? How can you expect us to forgive? Why should we trust You? Why was a virgin birth necessary? God, why don't You just reveal Yourself? What about a woman in ministry?
I think it would have helped to have the scriptures at the end of each chapter, but the back of the book works well. A very interesting read.

The Synopsis: While Charlotte is focusing on uncovering sordid information on columnist Daniel Wilmot, her heart leads her into uncharted territory.
During the summer of 1900 Charlotte Hale, a native Newporter and secretary for the Rhode island Reporter, accepts an undercover assingment as temporary governess to Daniel Wilmot's children in order to secretly gather evidence against him. As he helps her rediscover God, Charlotte learns that Daniel is an honorable man. They unexpectedly fall in love despite their different backgrounds and social positions. Charlotte soon realizes she must defend Daniel against the forces set against him-a willful student with a romantic crush and the newspaper editor determined to destroy his reputation.
You will love this book!
