Haven’s Point by Virginia Humes

Narrator - Cassandra Campbell

Genre - Women’s Fiction

Format - Audiobook 

Rating - 5 out of 5 stars

Narration - 5 out of 5 stars


This book was a bit confusing to me at the first because it kept going back and forth between three different people at different times in history. Although I tend not to read up much on a book I am reviewing I did look up what this book was about and then the different people and timelines fit.


This was a very good book about three different women living in three different eras and how different women were looked at during those times. The one of the ladies was a nurse in World War 2 where she meets her husband. The other two had different struggles in their lives as well. This is about a grandmother the WW2 nurse, her daughter an alcoholic, and the granddaughter who is caught between her grandmothers world and living with an alcoholic mom.


The narrator was great. Keeping things rolling in the book and trying to make the characters unique in their own ways.


Once I got into the grove of the book I just couldn’t stop listening it was just that good. The end is a bit of a shocker but I sort of saw it coming. All in all this is a good book to listen to while doing household chores, a bath, or other things that need your hands free when you really want to be reading.

Review of author Christine K. Fields

Genre Children’s Books I read three books by this author and all three were 5 star reads for children! I read Alphabet Stuff With Nuff, Saving Money Makes Cents,  Teamwork Makes Dream Work all by this author.  The Alphabet Stuff With Nuff book is a great way to get pre-K kids excited about learning letters and counting. It is all done in rhyme and had me laughing in parts. I would recommend the adult read through it a couple of times before reading it to their children. There are some wicked twisters in this one. The goal is to get your children to learn their alphabet and simple counting while you read the book. They have to count each time that letter comes and add them up. The answers of the number of letters in each rhyme are thankfully in the back of the book. The other two books I would say are more of kindergarten age book, One teaches about saving money and how fast it goes if you don’t pay attention. Something I have to say I have not learned at my age. This is perfec...

Windswept by Annabelle McCormack

Windswept Saga Book 1 Narrated by Elizabeth Grace Genre - Intrigue, Mystery, Romance Rating - 5 out of 5 Narration Rating - 5 out of 5 This book had me hooked from the beginning. It was so full of twist, turns, and mysterious circumstances that it just grabbed me in and I hated to stop listening even for bed. This book is sent in 1917 during WWI in Egypt. It has a lot of different characters but they are very easy to follow. It is about a woman thrown into a world of murder and mayhem in the war-ravaged Arabian desert where one wrong turn can get you killed. She has no clue who to trust and people keep showing up telling her that she can trust them but she has no idea which one is telling the truth. I have to give a shout-out to the narrator for keeping the book flowing and also her wide range of voices for each character. I think that is why while listening to this book I could keep each person separate.  I would highly recommend this book in audiobook format or book f...

A Cowboy Christmas Legend by Linda Broday

Genre - Christmas Fiction Rating - 5 out of 5 stars I picked out this book because of my ongoing obsession with cowboys. Plus I wanted to get into the Christmas spirit early this year. This book definitely didn’t disappoint.  This book is about a Texas Ranger running from grief and a women coming to grips with her own past. As they work together they end up bonding together to help rescue and take care of a Mother and her two children plus helping with a case for the Texas Rangers. The plot is a very stereotypical romance but it did not disappoint. With all the happy endings that we all look for at Christmas time. So if you are looking for a nice easy Christmas book to read I would definitely recommend this steamy Christmas read.
