The Masterpiece ~ Francine Rivers

EXCELLENT BOOK!  A MUST READ!  This is the story of Grace, single mother trying to get her life together and support her child.... Roman is an artist and a ladies man that hires Grace as his assistant.  As the story goes, we learn the present and the past of each of their lives and why they both have certain attitudes and ways about them.  Grace is a believer and Roman is not, which brings questions about why Grace is always on the defense of Roman's comments and life style.  

If you are a fan of Redeeming Love you will love this book, if haven't read it... go get it now.  This is a book that will leave you turning the pages and wishing you didn't have to sleep.  The story is over 500 pages and is not a book you can read in an afternoon, you will need to spend time reading this book as you will want to take it all in.  This is my new favorite of Francine Rivers!!!

If I Live! ~ Terri Blackstock

This is book #3 of the series and an excellent ending.  This book gives us the conclusion to Casey being on the run and how Dylan is trying to save her.  The story picks up where book #2 ends, with  little bit of background from the previous books.  Filled with suspense and a definite page turner, this book will keep you reading from beginning to end and as usual has the twists and turns to keep you guessing.

I would recommend anyone that like reading a good suspenseful, drama and page turner, this book is for you.  I would also recommend you to read all 3 books that will give you more of a background and understanding of all the characters.

Daisy Cakes Bakes ~ Kim Nelson

This is an excellent book for those that love to bake!  This book is hardcover, lots of color photos, the pages are heavy coated paper and the binding is very sturdy to allow the cookbook to lay flat.  It has a great index in the back and the first few pages give a description of each tool you should have in the kitchen when baking. The recipes are easy to understand with ingredients that are in your cupboard.  I like that each cake, cupcake and pie can be made with any variation and the recipes include several different ways and sauces to make with the cakes.

I would recommend this for anyone that likes to bake and enjoys and excellent dessert cookbook.  This book is great quality and quantity.  Great gift for those that love to make cakes and cupcakes with some special surprises....
