Forget What You’ve Heard
A cryptic phone call overheard by a pregnant woman makes her the next target for murder.
One small piece of conversation heard by the wrong person changes everything. When Aubree Stewart answers her phone on the way to work, she has no idea that she is now in possession of a dangerous secret—one so powerful that even the Secretary of Defense is in peril. Unable to forget what she has heard, Aubree soon finds herself swept up in a world of danger, intrigue, and murder. With help from the FBI, Aubree races to protect herself and her unborn child, but the one thing she forgets to protect is her own heart.
Forget What You’ve Seen
Even if she escapes her captors, something much more dangerous lies ahead.
When twenty-three-year-old Courtney Beckham, the privileged daughter of a highly successful land developer, is abducted in the mountains near her home, the search turns up more than just a kidnapping crime. FBI agent Jason Edwards investigates the ten-million-dollar ransom and stumbles upon something he wasn’t meant to find.
When Courtney catches a glimpse of the caller ID in her kidnapper’s home, what she sees turns her world upside down. Even if she escapes her captors, something much more dangerous lies ahead.
Forget Me Not
A mystery lies beneath the current. Can Jack uncover the truth before he loses what’s left of his family?
Jack Bentley’s life fractured into jagged shards of pain and loneliness four months ago when his wife’s car plunged into the Snake River. Still reeling from the loss of his wife and infant son, Jack finds his world shaken again when he sees the ghost of his wife, Gina. But the truth she tells him changes everything: their son didn’t drown with her.
Now, Jack must find his son before he slips away forever. Haunted by loss and his wife’s plea, Jack finds himself diving into a mystery deeper than the river’s swift current. No power on Earth can reunite him with his little boy—and even help from beyond the grave may not be enough to bring Jack’s son back.

Book Review: Standout Saints: Church History Heroes from Around the World by Sierra Wilson
Book Thoughts by Rachelle
I am now a homeschooling mom of four of my five children so I was excited to have the chance to read and review this book. This is an excellent book for all ages because the short biographies are packed full of great information. The illustrations are fun and whimsical and bring the facts about each standout saint to life. This book is written about members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from the very beginning of the church into the current day. I was impressed by the information on so many of these amazing people who gave service throughout their life to benefit others.
Patty Sessions was a midwife who crossed the plains and delivered the first baby in Utah. She later created an academy to help educate those who are poor. And that’s just one woman. Imagine how many lives she touched, especially because she delivered thousands of babies!
I also loved the story of Desideria, an Aztec descendent living in Mexico. She became the first member of the church in Mexico and was a stalwart example of faith. Her testimony remained strong and true as she awaited the Spanish translation of the Book of Mormon.
Green Flake was a slave who joined the church along with his master. He traveled across the plains and became a free man in Utah. He was a popular speaker at pioneer day events.
These are just a few of the dozens of biographies in this book. There are tons of great tidbits and facts that lead into more in-depth stories of these people. The whole book left me wanting to know more about these people!
This book is an excellent resource to teach history, expand on knowledge of the early foundational members of the church and learn more about exemplary characteristics in people that make them true heroes.
Here’s more about the book:
From prophets to pioneers, from songwriters to scientists, Standout Saints: Church History Heroes from Around the World presents the fascinating true stories of twenty women and twenty men from Church history. Each one-page biography describes impressive achievements and shares stories of great faith. Readers will encounter well-known and beloved Saints such as Joseph Smith and Eliza R. Snow along with lesser-known heroes from around the world such as Hu Wei-I, who miraculously translated the Book of Mormon into Chinese, and Mere Mete Whaanga, a prominent Maori woman who helped the Church spread into New Zealand. In addition, Standout Saints includes uplifting quotes, a Church history timeline, and resources for further study.
The courage and faith of these Saints made them stand out from the world, and this educational and inspiring book helps young readers know that they too can stand out.

Book Review: Not My Type by Melanie Jacobson
Book Thoughts by Rachelle
Not My Type by Melanie Jacobson is a romantic comedy full of wit, snarky attitude, and great romantic tension. I think my cheeks are sore from smiling my way through this book. Jacobson has a gift–her characters jumped off the page and kept talking in my head when I had to put the book down. I actually used her book as motivation to get my writing done. I had to meet a certain word count each day before I could read, so thanks!
Here’s more about the book:
Twenty-three-year-old Pepper Spicer is not living the dream. She ended her engagement at the last minute because her fiancé—a musician and soon-to-be reality TV star—wanted her to sacrifice her own career ambitions for his. Now she’s stuck at home sharing a room with her little sister, trying to pay off massive debt for a wedding that didn’t happen, and spending Friday nights Facebook-stalking everyone who has a better life. Her therapist father urges her to choose her career dreams and count her blessings by writing weekly thank-you notes, but gratitude is a tall order when she botches an important job interview and has to settle for writing an undercover dating web-zine column—the last thing in the world she wants to do. Still, as Pepper (byline: Indie Girl) chronicles her bizarre and hilarious blind dates, she gives her father’s challenge a try and slowly finds herself leaving self-pity behind. Life takes a major upswing as Pepper’s column hits the big time and she tastes the exhilarating thrill of success. But there’s one tiny problem: the intensely hot man she’s falling for is having issues with her job (again). Will Pepper trade her personal ambition for another chance at love?

Monday Musings #107
Book Review: The List by Melanie Jacobson
Book Thoughts by Rachelle
I loved The List! I loved the main character’s voice. I felt like Ashley was my best friend and I wanted to smack her a few times to knock some sense into her head when it comes to love. Ashley had me laughing so hard at times. Melanie Jacobson created a hunk of a guy to chase Ashley and the story had me laughing and waiting impatiently for another kiss. I swear I had this goofy grin on my face while I was reading this book–superbly written romantic comedy with some great kissing!
Here’s more about the book:
Ashley Barrett doesn’t want to get married. At least, not anytime soon. She doesn’t care how many of her friends and family members and fellow churchgoers had weddings before they finished college—the last thing she needs in her fun-loving twenties is the dead-weight of some guy. And that’s why she created The List. By the time she completes all twenty-five goals—from learning a language to skydiving to perfecting the art of making sushi—she’ll be more ready to settle down. Maybe.
This summer in California is a prime time for Ashley to cross two items off the list: learn to surf (#13) and have a summer romance (#17). And Matt Gibson, the best surf instructor in Huntington Beach and the most wanted guy in the singles ward, is the perfect man for the job. Ashley hatches a plan to love him and leave him before heading off to grad school in the fall (#4, get a master’s degree). But when Matt decides he doesn’t like the “leaving” part, Ashley’s carefully laid plans are turned sideways. Now Ashley faces an unexpected dilemma: should she stick to the safety of The List, or risk everything for a love that may tie her down—or might set her free?
