Cruel Intent by J.A. Jance (Ali Reynolds Series #4)



Cruel Intent by J.A. Jance

In her new Ali Reynolds suspense novel, we see Ali up to her neck in identity theft, computer hijinks and house remodeling mixed in. Ali's construction boss is suspected by most of the townsfolk as being the one who murdered his wife, but Ali is sure of his innocence and with a computer geek's help, goes out of their way to prove it, even with endangering their own lives and those close to them. It takes Ali and her pistol-packin' mother to save the day and render the killer defenseless until the cops show up. If you like your murder mysteries laced with a slice of humor, you'll love this new offering from Ms. Jance.

Prologue The Brothers: Vol. I The Great and Terrible by Chris Stewart


Prologue: The Brothers Vol. I The Great and Terrible: by Chris Stewart

I had heard of this book when it first came out, but it wasn't until the last one came out that I needed to see what all the excitement was. This first in a series is totally amazing, and Chris is a master story teller in weaving the story of the war in heaven. This novel simply tells the story of Ammon, Luke, Sam and their younger sister Elizabeth and their fighting to save their brothers, who are undecided on the choices they make, as their choices will set their destiny. I was amazed at how spiritual this story was and Chris makes you really think about our pre-mortal days and how it can impact our mortal lives. Even though this is a quick read, the eternal perspectives are mind-boggling!!!! If you haven't read this nail-biter (I don't bite them anymore) do read it.
