Book Review ** The Inn at Ocean's Edge by Colleen Coble


The Inn at Ocean’s Edge by Colleen Coble was an amazing read. Colleen Coble is one of my favorite authors and this book is an easy read that you don’t want to put down. There is plenty of intrigue to keep you interested in finding out what will happen next.  I had to take breaks several times, but would have kept on reading if I could.

Claire Dellamare came to the Hotel Tourmaline, southeast of the Schoodic Peninsula to help her father with a business merger. Claire has barely entered the hotel, checked in, and is heading to her room with her father, when she starts having a panic attack in the elevator.  Escaping from the elevator, she goes outside to get some fresh air when she sees people with an orca baby and goes to confront them. Luke Rocco and his sister, Megan, had found the injured baby orca nearly lifeless and had brought it in to rehab and release back to its pod. When Claire is returning to the hotel, she witnesses a murder. She recognizes the victim and calls for help but is knocked out and when she comes to, the victim is gone. Little did she know that this was not the first murder that had occurred here and that her life was unknowingly entwined in all that would be revealed!

Book Review ** A Heart's Obsession by Colleen Coble



A Heart’s Obsession by Colleen Coble was an amazing read. Colleen Coble is one of my favorite authors and this novella is an easy read that you don’t want to put down. Less than 100 pages, there is just enough intrigue to keep you interested in finding out what will happen next.  The only disappointment is that this is part two of a six part series and the end leaves you hanging. You have to read the next part of the series to find out what will happen next. You can read my review of part one of the series here.

Rand Campbell has gone to Fort Laramie, Wyoming and Sarah Montgomery is determined to stay home with her dying father. Before her father dies, he encourages Sarah to take her younger brother and go to Wyoming after Rand, because he realizes that Rand really cares for her, unlike Ben Croftner. After her father dies, Sarah’s older brother is determined to see Sarah married to Ben Croftner. Sarah realizes that she and her brother need to sneak away and go to Wyoming with Rand’s brother and his new bride.  When they get to Wyoming, Sarah finds Rand engaged to the daughter of one of the officers at the fort.  Sarah agrees to teach the Indian children, but what will happen when Ben shows up? Will Rand continue with his plans? I have to wait until the next book to find out.
