Book Review: A Rumored Fortune by Joanna Davidson Politano

What to say about this book?

Well, I didn't finish it.

Because I didn't love it.

Was it a terrible book?

No.

Would some people like it?

Most likely yes.

Was I one of those people?

No.

But then again I am somewhat picky with a book. It has to grab me within the first few chapters and this one didn't.

While I don't have a full review of this I can tell you what it is about!

The premise sounds interesting.  A young woman, Tressa, is sent for by her father to return to their estate in south England. Only when she and her Mother arrive they discover that her father has died. Without telling her where he has hidden his rumored vast fortune. He always said he would tell her before he died, but didn't get the chance. 

As you can imagine many people want to find the fortune before those who rightly deserve it (aka Tressa). So she is on a race against time to find the fortune before someone steals it.

If you like Regency books this one might be for you.

Thanks to Revell for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinions!

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

New Bedroom Decor!

 Every Year my SIL outdoes herself with the gifts she gave us the year before. This year was no exception! She made this amazing picture for me. If you look close all of the pieces of the heart are small pictures of me and my friends! I was amazed! I still can't get over it! I just love it so much!  So I decided to hang it above my bed. I don't have a headboard and I have really felt like my room was lacking something to pull it together. I think this picture does it nicely! And yes, I sleep with a stuffed animal. I'm single, don't judge! I also sleep with 5 pillows. I tend to fall out of bed. They are like my bumpers! HA! Seriously though I just love it and it's so neat to look at all the pics of different friends and stages in my life and remember all of the fun memories! Thanks Liz!!
