Curiosity got the Cat!
This is a book right up my alley! Love the description of the main character! This read is perfect for a chilly autumn night.
This is a short and sweet historical romance. It's a realistic story with a good sense of time and place. And yes, it leaves you wanting to know more about the characters!
A story featuring a mature woman sounds intriguing!

Bath Bombs & Beyond Violet Patton
Do you believe in ghosts? I wish I didn’t. After I retired, Sandy and I opened Bathhouse Row Soapery. Boy, that was a dumb idea. Opening day, I fell backward off a stepladder, cracked my noggin on the sidewalk and woke with the ability to communicate with Fanny Doyle, Al Capone’s shirt maker. Cracking my noggin was nothing compared to seeing a ghost.
Things go from bad to worse fast. Etta, our first employee, finds a dead cabaret singer poisoned by our bath bombs. I’m suspect #1 because I mixed that experimental batch of bombs. Our new sheriff, Dick, shuts down the Row, calls in crime scene investigators and hauls away our bath bomb ingredients. Now I have a murderer on my hands and a ghost with big-time issues. If I don’t solve the murder, and get rid of Fanny, our little soap shop will

I love all the books in Shane Morton's Point Pleasant Holiday Series so I was excited to see this short story! Tad and Wally are complete opposites who've secretly been crushing on each other. The chemistry between them heats up the pages, and their story draws you in. Throughout the series, the author brings us into this town and this world, and we never want to leave. The Point Pleasant stories can be read as standalones, but once you start, you won't want to stop until you've read every one. I can't wait to see what comes next!

Message in the Bones - Messages of Murder Book #1 Dawn Merriman
Long-buried bones have secrets to share – if you know how to read the message
Freak is a nasty word, but many people in this small town have no trouble calling me a freak, or worse. I have with the ability to “sense” things. Touching certain items often gives me visions, sometimes horrifying ones.
I normally hide my abilities from people, but the mysterious skeleton had a story that needed to be told. When I touched the bones, I saw what happened to her, lived through her murder.
No one wants to believe what I saw. Instead of a helpful hero, I become even more of an outcast in my small town. The only person who trulybelieves is the one man who knows the truth of my visions - the killer – and he’s desperate to keep his secrets hidden.

Really amazing story about what love can do with us. I like how characters are so real and so vivid, you drown in their story. Natasha is so strong woman and I admire by her. She decided to save her lover despise the fact that they are parted the life gave her to be with another man and forget all her sorrow. But she chooses the love!
Elsa Joseph's novels keep the pages turning.! The plot lines are fantastic, the characters seem real and believable and the writing is rich with description. The Best Kept Secret is a novel with mystery, thriller and romantic elements.
Elsa Joseph is a smart writer. I definitely enjoyed reading her books :)
Elsa Joseph does great work depicting the conflict Natasha is feeling over the two loves in her life. Her writing is original and well worth the read.
Refreshing to read a novel written in Third Person. Natasha is someone you can root for. As for London, what a gorgeous landscape to set
your story in. Been there, so the descriptions bring back fond memories. Good pacing, smart dialogue.
