I loved Everything about Callie's Story.! 
There was alot going on in this book.... Callie hiding she was sick, A drifter showing up injured after a dog attack, Baxter, and much more....

Levi, the drifter shows up one evening bleeding after a horrible dog attack.... Callie ends up trading room and board for labor around the house to get it ready to sell.  Baxter finally tells Callie his secret.  I loved this book !

Adelaide just returned to her home town to help her aging Grandmother in the family restaurant "Just Like Moms". Years ago when she was barely 16, she was brutally gang raped by several jocks from the Baseball team in the local mine.. Several of those boys are now grown men with families. upon her return, she is kidnapped and threatened to keep her mouth shut about the incident at the Graduation Party at the mine. She has no intentions of saying anything and only wants to help her Grandmother. Things got that much more complicated when she got involved with Noah.

Baxter had a big part in this book as well.... Noah and Baxter are Best Friends, but Baxter has secrets.... the rest of the group has already  figured it out but Noah doesn't see it until it smacks him right in the face. I really hope Baxter will get his own book very soon...

This was a great story, I loved the suspense !!!!  I was constantly trying to figure out who kidnapped her. There were alot of twists and turns...I could put the book down.!

Take Me Home for Christmas (Whiskey Creek #5) by Brenda Novak

Hello Everyone.
There are SPOILERS in this review.Take Me Home for Christmas Cover

 Take Me Home for Christmas is the 5th book in the Whiskey Creek Series by Brenda Novak. I enjoyed Every book in this series !

Sophia has been in the other books briefly.... she usually only showed up during coffee at the local coffee shop. Which was a group of friends (main Characters in the books) that meet at the coffee shop every Friday morning.

Sophia  is Beautiful, Rich and Married to the most successful man in Whiskey Creek. Unfortunately her husband is abusive, and she is recovering from a drinking problem. Skip, Her Husband plans a Vacation for her and their daughter on the yacht to "start over". Skip goes missing one morning and Sophia's world is flipped up side down. She learns Secrets about her husband and his business that made life very hard for Sophia and her Daughter Alexi.

Wow, This really pulled at the heart strings. I felt so horrible for both Alexi and Sophia. They lost everything and the people of Whiskey Creek were horrible !! After reading the first 4 books I really feel in love with ALL the people in Whiskey Creek... I lost alot of respect for those people in this book. What they did to Sophia and her innocent daughter was horrible.
I really hated the relationship between Ted and Eve.

I cannot wait for the 6th book in the series to be released.!!!!
