Here is what I thought......
I liked this book from page one. I decide to read this book because the premise behind the book. I can't imagine inheriting 8 children at the young age of twenty-two. I could sympathize with the struggles that Aggie went through. I can only imagine how hard it would be. I loved the different personalities of the children. This story has a great storyline and I also enjoyed the setting. My favorite character was of course, Aggie. She had to be my favorite after all she goes through to take care of the kids. I would love to read the rest of the books in this series. I received a free copy of this book from the author. A positive review was not required. All opinions are my own.

But Cara’s gentleness and adaptability proved to be exactly what the Doctor of doctors ordered.
Discovering Hope— When Jay Brown overhears an epic brush-off, he and the brusher, Hope Senior, forge an unlikely friendship. He’s an Indian immigrant. She’s so All-American that her family dates back to the Mayflower. But through Christmas lights, epic laser tag, grief, saris, and a few hundred mistletoe sprigs, they may just form more than the friendship of a lifetime.
Manuscript for Murder— When local celebrity, author Alexa Hartfield, finds her next novel played out as if a script for murder of local residents, she’s both grieved and incensed. With the help of a local officer, she’s on the hunt for who could have “dunnit” before the murderer kills another resident and her career.

Confessions of a De-cluttering Junkie— Kaye Harper has had it. No one needs six can openers, four umbrellas per person, or a closetful of games all missing pieces. So, with her family watching on in horror, and her feline nemesis determined to trip her up at every move, Kaye embarks on a de-cluttering mission that might just become a bit of an obsession.
Corner Booth— Who knew you could lose your heart to someone you’ve never spoken to? When a strange girl stops at Dean Sager’s table and asks if she can join him to avoid a line out the restaurant door, he has no idea that this one shared meal will become a weekly ritual. But contrary to his talkative nature, Dean doesn’t say a word that day or any of the following days. And an experiment in self-control becomes a lesson in really seeing and understanding people.
None So Blind— Waking up in a house you don’t recognize and with a family hurt that you don’t remember them is hard enough. But when it feels like you’re forced into a life you didn’t choose, things become almost unbearable. The only think keeping Ella Weeks from running from it all is the one thing that survived her inexplicable memory loss—her faith.
Justified Means— An organization designed to protect people where the law can’t, The Agency prides itself in a decade-long almost perfect record. But after an involuntary extraction, Keith Auger can barely stay ahead of those hunting down the woman under their protection.

Not a Word— We all make mistakes, but Savannah Forrester had no idea that her biggest mistake has ruined the life of the only guy she’s ever really cared about.

He can’t understand his father’s thirst for revenge and the drive to help those wronged by their governments. But when an old enemy catches up with them, Sebastian finds himself out in the Atlantic in a ship too small to make it safely to the east.
