The River Queen (River Romances #1) by Stephenia H. McGee

 

The River Queen (River Romances #1)The River Queen by Stephenia H. McGee
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

First, let's talk about this beautiful cover!! I love Anola's dress in this picture!!

Anola is doing everything she can to keep the family business afloat....literally. The Mississippi Riverboat show has been dwindling in attendance but Anola is determined to keep it going one way or another.

Emmett is rescued by the The River Queen after pirates attacked him and took over his ship. He is enamored with Anola and her singing voice. He's concerned about her losing her family business and vows to help her save it.

A great read (or listen to in this case)! I am a lover of historical fiction and I felt as though I was on the river with these characters.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lois Wickstrom has done it again! I love this story about Squilla Balloo and her little experiment gone wrong. The name Squilla makes me smile every time I say it too! Squilla has an enemy and she thinks she knows how to change that but when things don't go as planned, the outcome changes too!

Super cute book that kids will love! It will help teach them a lesson in kindness too!
