Limits by Susie Tate

Camilla knew they called her "Nuclear Winter". That was fine with her. It meant she didn't have to interact with anyone.

Pav, the dashing Urologist was drop dead gorgeous and quite the Playboy if appearances meant anything. People were just naturally drawn to him. This is a story about the intersection of these very different lives. Full of heartache, romance and more than a few surprises, it is a thoroughly enjoyable read. Ms Tate knows her Hospital pecking order well and uses it to great advantage. I'm looking forward to reading more from her. 

The Southern Belle Brides By Lauralee Bliss, Ramona Cecil, Dianne Christner, Lynn A. Coleman, Patty Smith Hall, Grace Hitchcock, Connie Stevens.

What an enjoyable group of women. Each with a different story, but all searching for something true and blessed.  From a Southern War survivor, cheated by a bank, trying her best to keep it together, to a servant girl, trying her best to impersonate he employers runaway daughter and make a good impression on a prospective suitor.
I especially enjoy seeing God's hand in every story, something that is not always the case in our own world.
A thoroughly enjoyable read!

Twenty-One Days by Anne Perry

Daniel Pitt didn't want to take this case, but his father has specifically asked him to. So, he started asking questions, thrusting him into a web of dubious ideas, strange, but true circumstances and even more astonishing conclusions.

Having been a fan of Anne Perry for many years, I was interested to see the children of her original characters taking up the endeavours of their parents. But this is also an excellent stand alone story, on it's own merits!
