I believe that reviewing for Inspirational authors is my calling and ministry. The desire of my heart is that my blog is a light and source of encouragement for both readers and authors.
Happy Tuesday! Welcome to another edition of Top Ten Tuesday sponsored by That Artsy Reader Girl. Today's topic books with animals on the cover or animals in the title. I chose animals on the cover because I wasn't finding many animals in the title.
Happy Tuesday! Welcome to the last Top Ten Tuesday of the year!! I can't believe this will be my last Top Ten Tuesday of 2022. I have no idea where 2022 has gone.
I'm hoping to grant some wishes today so, I'm going to link my Amazon wish list in case you're like me and enjoy granting wishes.
With as much reading and reviewing as I do I can't believe I didn't know about some of these books until just a few weeks ago.
Do we share any wish list books?
Welcome to the Takeover Blitz for The Secrets of Emberwild by Stephenia H. McGee, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!
EXCERPT . . .
Nora slid down from Arrow’s back and scratched the base of his mane. He lowered his head, becoming more complacent with each rub of her fingers. Silly boy. Even with all his bravado, he was still the sweet foal she’d loved since he took his first steps on spindly legs. They’d bonded during those times, and no matter what Roger said, Arrow would never hurt her. Not intentionally, anyway. “He’s got nice form,” a man’s voice said from behind her, “though you could use a bit more caution on those turns, boy.”
What? Nora whirled around to find a tall man casually leaning on the fence, watching her. “Who are you?” Surprise flickered over his tanned features, deep brown eyes widening slightly before settling into a calm gaze once again. “Silas Cavallero.” He spoke with an easy cadence, his voice both deep and smooth. He watched her openly, as though trying to figure out all of her secrets. She bristled. “And what are you doing here, Mr. Cavallero?” “Looking at your horse.”
A buyer? She’d heard nothing about a buyer coming by today. This man in his dusty dungarees and once-white hat didn’t look like the type, but appearances could be deceiving. Satisfaction swelled as she ran a hand down Arrow’s neck. “You won’t find any better. He won’t be ready for breeding until next year, but I hope to start putting him on the books soon. Are you looking for a new stud?”
The man stared at her, strong jaw set against a serious mouth. “I’m not here to secure stud services. Mr. Reed hired me to get a handle on this colt.”
Doesn't that sound good? I want to know who this guy is that just showed up to "get a handle on this colt."

ABOUT THE BOOK
Title: The Secrets of Emberwild A gifted trainer in a time women are not allowed to race, Nora Fenton prefers horses to men. They're easier to handle, they're more reliable, and they never tell her what to do. After her father's passing, Nora is determined to save her struggling horse farm, starting with entering her prize colt into the harness races at the 1905 Mississippi Fair. If she wins, she may have a chance at independence. But when a stranger arrives and starts asking disconcerting questions, she suspects he may have other motives than unseating her in the training job that is rightfully hers.
Silas Cavallero will do whatever it takes to solve the mystery of his father's death--even if it means training an unwieldy colt for Nora, who wants nothing more than to see him gone. But when mysterious accidents threaten their safety and circumstances shrouded in secrets begin unlocking clues to his past, Silas will have to decide if the truth is worth risking ruining everything for the feisty woman he's come to admire.(1) winner will receive a print copy of The Secrets of Emberwild and $25 Barnes & Noble gift card!
