It’s Friday!
I cannot tell you how excited I am for the three day weekend ahead of me! Now
let me tell you a little bit about what has happened before this weekend…
1. I finally
received my copy of this gem! I have been dying
to read it, so I was so excited when it came in the mail. I’ve already started
it, and let me just say, it is wonderful.
Roseanna M. White always does an exceptional job, and I can tell The Lost Heiress will not be any
different. Here’s the synopsis:
Brook
Eden has never known where she truly belongs. When her friend Justin uncovers the fact that she is
possibly a missing heiress from Yorkshire, Brook leaves
the sun of the Mediterranean
to travel to the moors of the North Sea and the estate of her supposed family.
The mystery of
her mother’s death haunts her, and though her father is quick to accept her, the rest of
the
family and the servants of Whitby Park are not. Only
when Brook’s life is
threatened do they draw close—but
will their loyalty come too late to save Brook from the
same threat that led to tragedy for her mother?
As heir to a
dukedom, Justin is no stranger to
balancing responsibilities. When the matters of his estate
force him far from Brook, the distance between them
reveals that their friendship
has grown into something
much more. But how can their very different loyalties
and
responsibilities ever come together?
And then for a
second time, the heiress of Whitby
Park is stolen away because of the very rare
treasure in
her possession—and those who can save her still aren’t
sure whom to trust.
Doesn’t
that sound wonderful? I cannot wait to finish this book and review it for you.
Be looking out for that because it is coming soon!
2.
Everything is on track for my first giveaway! I cannot tell you how excited I am!
Not only are giveaways super exciting, but the book I’m giving away (The Chase by Kyle and Kelsey Kupecky for
those of you who don’t already know) is so wonderful! I’m almost done with my
copy of it, and I really am loving it! It is such a great book and I am so glad
they wrote it! I’ll tell you more when I post my review and giveaway on Monday.
3.
Sorry to have another thing about books, but I really cannot write a list of
the highlights of my week without listing the amazing novel I just finished yesterday. A Noble Masquerade by Kristi Ann Hunter is by far one of my
favorite books of all time. It really was so, so good. I can’t even tell you
how wonderful it is without pouring out my whole review right here on this
post. So, all I’m going to say is, come back tomorrow and read my review to see
how much I loved it.
4. We have
(finally!) cleaned out the youth room at my church! It needed to be cleaned and
organized so badly, so I am so glad we finally got around to it. And we moved
the furniture into a more functional, and fun, setting, and I’m so excited to
see how that plays out in the future. If you cannot tell, I really am so hyped
about my calling into youth ministry. I just love it so much! Even though I don’t
have my degree (yet) I can at least help out, and that means the world to me. All
I can say is that there will be plenty more posts about anything youth related
in the future.
5. I
helped throw the best surprise birthday party for one of my friends! It was
such a blast just putting it together and working to keep the surprise (there
were 22 other girls involved) but the best part was how genuinely surprised she
was, and how much she loved what we had done. She was so completely and utterly
excited and touched by the gesture, and I really loved seeing the expressions
on her face as we carried out all of our surprises. And she has been such a
blessing to us, so it really was great to get to bless her in return.
Well,
that is my week! Happy Friday and three day weekend to you!
