{Merry
CHRISTmas everyone! Every Monday, Wednesday & Friday in honor of our
Savior’s birth there’ll be a new Christmas book review! With a couple giveaways
sprinkled in, it’s going to be so much fun! Let’s start!}
About this book:
“Zack Kahler thinks he is leaving New York City for home in Texas to publish his own newspaper, but a pair of six-year-old twins and a young woman from his past complicate the situation. What will this Christmas bring to this group of strangers now thrown together?”
Series: This is book #4 of the “Texas Legacy” series. {As of posting this, I’m currently reading the first three of this series. It looks like they should be read in order, but they really aren’t for Teens. Best to just stick with this one. :) }

My
personal Rating-
I was shocked to learn that this
book was right up my alley! I knew that I knew this author…after researching on
Goodreads I found out she’s the author of “Firewall”, a modern suspense book that I wasn’t a fan of. Needless to say, I was a bit
worried about “A Texas Legacy Christmas”!
Which I really didn’t need to do! It was really cute and pretty clean! I
laughed many times at the twins & their antics! Now here’s a fun surprise!
I’m giving away a copy of “A Texas Legacy
Christmas”!
*(And just in case you’re one of
those who always tries to read series in order (which is fine! I’m one of
those! ;) ) this is the cleanest one out of the series. So, just stick to
reading this one, forgo the others in the series. Trust me. This author would be where you read our disclaimer at the
end of every review. ;) We like this
book, but not the other ones we’ve read by her.)
{USA only again, y’all. Sorry
others! It’s expensive to ship anywhere else! Ends the 15th! Please
make sure you do what you said you did! I got many entries that didn’t count
because the person didn’t really do them! Yes, I check!}
See y’all on Friday with a new
CHRISTmas review!
*BFCG may (Read the review to see) recommend this book by this author. It does not mean I recommend all the books by this author.
Raiders from the Sea by Lois Walfrid Johnson, and the next book in the series Mystery of the Silver Coins. I love EVERYTHING by her. She has three series, two more for 10-13 year olds and the series mention above for teens :) They all have just enough romance to make it interesting(at least for me!) but they are labeled more as adventure books which they are. Okay mini fangirl rant and review over! LOL
ReplyDeleteFrom your book list can you review a Hopeful Heart by Amy Clipston and Out of Control by Mary Connealy?
ReplyDeleteFancy Pants and Whirlwind by Cathy Marie Hake!!
ReplyDeleteGilbert Morris has a teen series I think it's called Seven Sleepers! But I would love for you to review that!
Klassen, Julie – “The Apothecary's Daughter and Lessman, Julie – “A Hope Undaunted are two books I would love to see reviewed. These are great authors
