She’s outstanding - especially in that book. Years after I had devoured her book I found that hubby DNA matches her surname by boatloads!

The Outlanders is also a definite contender. Traveling to 18th century Scotland as a traveling nurse is an interesting storyline, especially since romance, history, danger, and adventure are involved.

Good Evening
Sherri, I have to say it would be any of Janet Evanovich's books. She's been my favorite author for years. I love her style.

My latest book came to me as a Christmas present from Australia. It is the story of My brother in laws life...he is the twin brother of my late first husband, the father of my sons. I am loving it.

I think you might enjoy 'The Titanic Sisters' by Patricia Falvey. It is a great book.
