My Thoughts-SHADOWED WITNESS by Angela Carlisle

 

SHADOWED WITNESS by Angela Carlisle July 7 - August 1, 2025 Virtual Book Tour

THE SECRETS OF KINCAID    A haunting attack. A killer in the shadows. A protective love. Murder--that's what photographer Allye Jessup knows she witnessed as she departed her studio one evening. Waking with bruises on her neck and a foggy memory, she believes she survived an attack, but everyone seems to think she simply sustained a head injury from falling down the stairs outside her studio. Plagued by an undiagnosed health condition, she is torn between the haunting reality of what she may have seen and the possibility that her mind is playing tricks on her. Without proof the other victim ever existed, Detective Eric Thornton can hardly declare the area a murder scene. Still, he adds Allye's report to his already full caseload. But when new evidence surfaces to support her claims, Eric must stay one step ahead of a ruthless killer and uncover the truth before the suspect closes in on Allye again.

I have read the first book but they can be read as stand alone.  In this story, we meet Allye Jessup. She feels that she witnessed a murder. However she seems to have survived an attack, but no one seems to believe her. I was drawn into this book as soon as I started reading. The author has packed in so much suspense, mystery and romance.  Detective Eric Thornton is the one who takes Allye’s case. He’s overloaded with other cases but he sees some things that others have dismissed. I loved the twists and turns and the evolution of our characters.  The author has not only written an amazing story, there is faith woven in throughout. Learning to trust God fully is a hard thing to do sometimes but we see Allye make strides in her faith.  I’ve enjoyed being in Kincaid, Kentucky and this is a series I hope never ends. Thank you to the author, publisher and Partners in Crime Tours for allowing me to read a copy of this book. All thoughts are my own.

My Thoughts Names of God Devotional Studies #2 Author: Grace Fox

 

Welcome to the Blog Tour for Names of God: Knowing Peace by Grace Fox, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!

About the Book

Title: Names of God: Knowing Peace
Series: Names of God Devotional Studies #2
Author: Grace Fox
Publisher: Aspire Press
Release Date: July 8, 2025
Genre: Christian Living; Devotional study

Peace.

The very word evokes images of serene landscapes and quiet stillness. In today’s chaotic world, peace is a valuable commodity. The Bible has a lot to say about peace, claiming that God himself is the ultimate source. In this follow-up to Names of God: Living Unafraid, Grace Fox reflects on how the following names of God point to the peace our souls so desperately crave:

Yahweh Shalom—The Lord Is Peace
Abba—Father
El Shaddai—God Almighty
El Roi—The God Who Sees Me
Yahweh Ori—The Lord Is My Light
Yahweh Nissi—The Lord Is My Banner
Immanuel—God with Us

Knowing Peace uses examples from Scripture and compelling real-life stories to illustrate how these names can bring inner peace amid life’s storms. Each session includes a guided prayer, reflection questions, and a video link providing additional insights from Grace. Perfect for individual or group study, this new addition to the Names of God series will encourage and inspire readers to draw near to God and receive his peace that passes understanding (Philippians 4:7).

My Thoughts 

I’m going through a roller coaster of a time right now. My husband got a new job in a new city. We’re trying sell our house and move and while I know God has us, there’s always that chaos that brews in the soul. Names of God Devotional by Grace Fox couldn’t have come at a better time. 

There is a perfect blend of Biblical Examples and personal testimony that I looked forward to reading more. Each session provide a guided prayer (which are so helpful when your soul is weary), reflection questions and a video link. I found my faith boosted going through this devotion. 

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.

Takeover Blitz for Fire Mountain by Dana Mentink

 Welcome to the Takeover Blitz for Fire Mountain by Dana Mentink hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!

About the Book

Title: Fire Mountain
Series: Elements of Danger #1
Author: Dana Mentink
Publisher: Revell
Release Date: July 1, 2025
Genre: Mystery & Romantic Suspense

Fire rains from above as they fight to discover the truth and stay alive.

In the shadow of a threatening volcano, long-haul trucker Kit Garrido wakes up in her crashed big rig, unable to recall what happened or why she's suddenly in possession of someone's baby. Fiercely independent, she has to admit that perhaps this time she could use a little help.

As the threat of eruption grows, former cop Cullen Landry refuses to leave his cabin in the evacuation area, which is why he's the only one left who can help Kit escape the crumpled cab of her truck. He doesn't want to get tangled up in the mystery of the beautiful woman with an abandoned infant, but when he sees the bullet hole in the windshield and the bloody handprint on the interior, he realizes that he's in this thing, like it or not.

When two armed men with ill intent approach, the race is on to stay alive, discover the truth, and find the baby's missing mother--all while a deadly mountain rains fire from above.
