A marriage in crisis. A betrayer in the wings. A life at stake.

Harriet Duval has it all—a handsome French husband, a delightful young daughter, a successful career as a professional ballerina behind her, and a beautiful future in a charming village in the English countryside. Even her beloved sisters can’t see the painful truth she hides beneath her perfect mask…

Successful businessman Leo Duval is at a breaking point physically, emotionally, and spiritually as he is forced to harbor secrets in Paris while his marriage in England dissolves before his very eyes.

The magnetic pull of Harriet’s old dancing life and the shocking murder of a Swan Lake ballerina causes her to question everything: faith, future, family. When the killer begins targeting the Duval family, Leo and Harriet’s vulnerable marriage is tested by an unimaginable traumatic event. Will the guilt they carry divide them when they need each other most?

MY THOUGHTS

Ribbons of Guilt is book three in the  Bite of Betrayal series that is written by Laura Thomas. I have not read the whole series, but I did not have any issues following along. This is a new to me author, and I will be looking for her other books. 


Laura Thomas does a wonderful job balancing mystery, suspense, and emotional depth, creating a story that feels both engaging and character-driven. I loved watching the characters grow and evolve throughout the book. 


Harriet was a professional ballerina before she got married. Now she has a child and her life looks completely different. Her husband Leo has been keeping secrets and while they love their child, their marriage is starting to fall apart. Harriet questions everything when a Swan Lake Ballerina is murdered. 


Every time I thought I had the mystery figured out, another revelation sent me in a different direction.The pacing was steady, making it easy to stay invested without feeling rushed. The author's vivid descriptions and attention to detail made each scene come alive, while the suspense kept me turning pages late into the night.

Thank You to the author, publisher and JustRead Publicity Tours for allowing me to read a copy of this book - all thoughts are my own.

Biblical Encouragement for Everyday Motherhood

Have you ever whispered to yourself, I’ll be a better mom tomorrow…but tomorrow never comes? Maybe you’re comparing yourself to other moms and feel you aren’t measuring up. But don’t lose hope. Just as moms in Scripture learned from life’s ups and downs, with God’s help, you can become the mom you long to be.

Moms of the Bible explores timeless life lessons from Bible moms of all types, revealing how their stories of failure, faith, and hope can help you fulfill your own calling with confidence.

MY THOUGHTS 

I have two teenage boys in my household right now…. It;s summer.. They are eating me out of house and home. This book Moms of the Bible: Life-Changing Lessons from the Fearless, Flawed, and Faithful by  Rhonda Stoppe could not have come at a better time. There is so much that I loved about this book. 


The first is how the author splits the book into three sections of moms, moms that were fearless, flawed, and faithful. Right now, I am feeling like a flawed mom - but after reading this book I am confident that I am not alone. Some of the moms that the book touches on are:  Rehab, Mary, Herodias, Lot’s wife, Eve and others. I felt that the book was well written. It was a nice uplifting read. 


Being a mom is hard work. Theres no time off, theres no sick pay, benefits, but it’s the most rewarding job that one can do. I know that I make mistakes daily. But I felt that I was right at home with some of our Bible Mothers.
