This contemporary romantic suspense is a favorite of mine and yes, that is an Amish horse and buggy!

The PEAK helicopter is an obvious choice for the Montana Rescue series but book four mixes things up with Ian’s yacht in the stormy Gulf!
The Road to Paradise

Automobiles have come a long way since the 1920s but the beauty of the national parks is timeless!
Drawing Fire
by Janice Cantore
If you see Detective Abby Hart in your rearview mirror, you best move out of the way!
With You Always
by Jody Hedlund
Since our adventure on the rails last fall, I have a new appreciation for all characters enduring trains!
Carrington Family series

I LOVE these new covers! They truly capture the dual-timeline aspect of these stories!

I love all the shenanigans in this story!
Across the Blue
by Carrie Turansky
Isabella Grayson, the eldest daughter of a wealthy, English newspaper magnate, longs to become a journalist, but her parents don’t approve. They want her to marry well and help them gain a higher standing in society. After she writes an anonymous letter to the editor that impresses her father, her parents reluctantly agree she can write a series of articles about aviation and the race to fly across the English Channel, but only if she promises to accept a marriage proposal within the year.
When James Drake, an aspiring aviator, crashes his flying machine at the Grayson’s new estate, Bella is intrigued. James is determined to be the first to fly across the Channel and win the prize Mr. Grayson’s newspaper is offering. He hopes it will help him secure a government contract to build airplanes and redeem a terrible family secret. James wants to win Bella’s heart, but his background and lack of social standing make it unlikely her parents would approve.
If he fails to achieve his dream, how will he win the love and respect he is seeking? Will Bella’s faith and support help him find the strength and courage he needs when unexpected events turn their world upside down?

I am really captivated by With You Always by Jody Hedlund. It’s definitely on my TBR list, and I cannot wait to finally get to it. Transportation by train is not my favorite because it is so slow and I get antsy, but the cover totally draws me in. It is really pretty,

Thank you! Oh yes, that’s a good one! I was surprised by how rough and bumpy our train ride was (for 2+ days one-way) ????

I’m drawn to the covers of “Finding Margo” by Jen Turano and “The Road to Paradise” by Karen by Barnett for the colors and earlier modes or different types of transportation which to me are intriguing. I absolutely love the cover of “Across the Blue” by Carrie Turansky not only because of the coloring but the fashion statement of the hat and the airplane. Since I’ve never flown in an airplane, I’m always excited to have them in stories. Love all sorts of transportation in my stories because I love to read about all time frames. It’s how the author writes about it that makes it interesting.

I agree that “unfamiliar” often makes certain story elements more appealing!

I love the whimsical cover of Karen’s book! I’ve always loved to travel by car & discover new places that way. And one day, I want to travel somewhere by train since I’ve never been on one 🙂

Hi! For some reason I am intrigued by the cover of Finding Margo. I guess it is the blending of the modern or English and the Amish. The woman in the ripped jeans and the beautiful farm and buggy. I would also say that I like to read about buggies as transportation in stories. I must have missed this review somehow. Now I want to read the book.
