ABOUT THIS BOOK Dr. Leigh Culver loves practicing medicine in Timberlake, Colorado. It is a much-needed change of pace from her stressful life in Chicago. The only drawback is she misses her aunt Helen, the woman who raised her. But it’s time that Leigh has her independence, and she hopes the beauty of the Colorado wilderness will entice her aunt to visit often. Helen Culver is an independent woman who lovingly raised her sister’s orphaned child. Now, with Leigh grown, it’s time for her to live life for herself. The retired teacher has become a successful mystery writer who loves to travel and intends to never experience winter again. When Helen visits Leigh, she is surprised to find her niece still needs her, especially when it comes to sorting out her love life. But the biggest surprise comes when Leigh takes Helen out to Sullivan’s Crossing and Helen finds herself falling for the place and one special person. Helen and Leigh will each have to decide if they can open themselves up to love neither expected to find and seize the opportunity to live their best lives. MY REVIEW Travelling back to Sullivan's Crossing is always a pleasure and THE BEST OF US by Robyn Carr is no different. Engaging characters, a breathtaking setting, and romance that will warm your heart, this story has it all and more. Dr. Leigh Culver is enjoying the more laid-back atmosphere that exists working in Timberlake, Colorado and is getting used to this community that welcomes you with open arms. Making new friends and keeping in touch with her beloved Aunt who raised her, Leigh has no time for romance and complications. She learned the hard way before that love only leads to heartbreak. But when she agrees to dinner with the local pub owner, she knows it can be nothing serious, can it? And when Leigh's Aunt comes to visit she may just find a deeper connection to this place than one would ever imagine. Inviting, compelling and completely unputdownable, THE BEST OF US by Robyn Carr is the perfect romance to kick-start the new year and I couldn't read it fast enough. The setting, as always, is like a character in it's own right and made me dream of Colorado in all of its magnificence. There are mishaps, misunderstandings, drama, love, and true friendship, and I highly recommend this story to all lovers of contemporary romance.

My first book for the year is MY NAME IS ANNA by Lizzy Barber and what an amazing book to start the year off with. Compelling, emotional and haunting in ways beyond your imagination, this story is everything I hoped it would be and more. Anna has grown up in a very strict religious household but when she breaks the rules and goes to a theme park in Florida for her eighteenth birthday it will set off a chain of events that will change her life and the lives of so many around her. Rosie doesn't really remember the sister that disappeared fifteen years ago but she knows the sadness, pain, and devastating consequences that it has had on everyone. Determined to discover the truth once and for all, Rosie will do whatever it takes. But sometimes the truth can be very unexpected ... MY NAME IS ANNA by Lizzy Barber is the kind of book that really gets under your skin and makes you feel every heightened emotion on the page. As a mother, the idea of a child disappearing into thin air terrifies me so I knew that this book would get to me, but the writing and depth of feeling described in this story was above and beyond what I expected. Lies, secrets, tragedy, this book has it all and at the centre two girls who are desperate to know the truth once and for all. MY NAME IS ANNA by Lizzy Barber is a fantastic book with elements of crime fiction, drama, and suspense to guarantee that it has something for everyone and I would be shocked if we don't see it on our television screens in the future.
