Review: Aura (The Senses Novels Book 1) by K M Aul

Aura (The Senses Novels Book 1) by K M Aul

The gifted young characters that sit at the center of the novel, particularly Jacob, must navigate their own inherent struggles in the larger world, while also […]

Review: Reagan Country (A Pastor Stephen Grant Novel) by Ray Keating

Reagan Country by Ray Keating

If political intrigue and expansive narrative threads fit neatly in your wheelhouse, then the writing of Ray Keating never fails to disappoint.

Underpinning this entire novel is a strong political bent, so those readers who remember (and potentially adore) the Reagan years in American history will appreciate the heavy leaning in favor of that president’s policies […]
