"The Red Satin Slip" by Rizzy

"The Red Satin Slip," published by Dorrance Publishing is a very short but entertaining story. I enjoyed reading it, although I wish it was much longer, I did not want it to end. The story centers around the heroine, Helen, whose husband betrays her by taking a sexy photograph and selling it to Playboy. In the mean time, a rich American millionnaire sees the photograph in Playboy and falls in love with Helen. Dominique, the American millionnaire, becomes very protective, hires body guards and watches Helen from afar, finally meeting her. Loved how the story ends, but I will leave that a secret!

"A Conversation with God for Women"

What an wonderful book this is! The author, Marcia Ford, has a true understanding of a woman's heart and what she might most want to talk to God about. I love the way the book is broken down, into sections, that make it very easy for the reader to instantly find what she most wants to read about...or like me, find a section she loves to read over and over again. I particularly enjoyed the "life" section, as I feel that is a common area of question and concern for ladies. My favorite? "How can we do it all?" What woman doesn't want to understand how God might view this topic! Very inspirational with clear scripturally based commentary, although clearly the Biblical or scriptural interpretation of the author. Highly recommended.

"On Our Way to Tomorrow"

“On Our Way to Tomorrow” published by Dorrance Publishing is an enjoyable book, but I admit I was disappointed with some aspects. I really loved the heroine, Anne Appleton, and her struggle westward. Anne is an extremely strong woman who faces tremendous obstacles achieving her goal, including a very untimely death of her parents. In the end, that makes her much stronger. Despite tragedy and what seems like impossible odds, Anne faces those odds with dignity and integrity. Anne is clearly an intelligent woman, who is thoughtful, witty and enjoyable; she shines with life's ever-changing events. She has admirable traits and seems to have her priorities well established: Her family is her life and she is a most loyal friend. I enjoy western romance novels, so I expected to love this book; on hindsight, maybe my expectations were too high. I found the chapters short and choppy, which I did not care for. I also did not care for some of the unnecessary graphic detail, and found it not only offensive, but totally unnecessary to the story line, especially in the beginning of the book. The heroine's character had not yet been developed, so I was confused. Had the information been introduced later in the book after the reader developed an affinity for the heroine, it might have worked better. In my opinion, a little bit less information leaves more to the imagination of the reader. I did not like the foreshadowing in the very beginning of the book; I would rather have been surprised later in the book.
