To See the Sun – A Review & PRIZES

 

Although author, Peg Phifer and I have never met face to face, our friendship is the heart to heart kind. We “met” on an online writer’s group years ago and have walked our way to publishing together. I had the privilege of reading Peg’s new book, To See the Sun, through-out the writing. What an amazing journey. Here’s my review of the book and then. . .you have an option to win all kinds of FREE PRIZES from Peg and I.

 

My Review:

As most of you know, I take reviewing books seriously to heart. I have to connect with the characters and/or story. In To See the Sun I did both.

As the story opens, Erin is pregnant and recently widowed. The last thing she needs is an old beau in a cowboy hat. And worse than that, she is being watched. Her unwanted cowboy wants to protect her from certain danger, but can she let him?

Erin has more than one protector though; a sister, her father-in-law, and friends. All the way through the mystery part of the story – even as we brainstormed, I wondered who in the world was the killer and why. I refuse to give it away, but I will tell you – the author surprised me.

To See the Sun has the right balance of suspense and romance. I’m looking forward to book two in the Desert Faith Series.  You can purchase it HERE.

Now – the moment you’ve all been waiting for!
