126. As I Have Loved You by Kitty de Ruyter Bons lived through the Japanese occupation of Indonesia during World War II as a child. This is the autobiography of her life. The experiences of the concentration camp in Indonesia were heartbreaking but sadly familiar from reading other such stories. She moved to Holland and finally America. A remarkable woman from a remarkable family. Their faith saw them through so much. She and her husband eventually joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. When I first started reading I was caught up in how much like Thailand everything sounded. Memories washed over me.
127. Vestige of Power (Vestige in Time series Book 1) by Sara Blackard Christian speculative romance. I'm not a fan of time travel, but this had an interesting twist.
128. I'll Always Love You (Sunset Beach Stories Book 1) by Annie Carr, Sharon Hamilton contemporary romance. Sharon writes steamy SEAL romances. Under her Annie Carr name, she writes sweet romances. There is still some swearing and implied premarital relations. So if you love her SEAL books, this will be a sweet story. If you like Christian romance books, with no swearing etc, this book is not for you. For me, I've known Sharon for years, and she is a wonderful woman. I took the opportunity to reflect on my first love and realized I had no idea what love was. I was infatuated and then didn't know how to be mature enough to walk away when I realized it wasn't healthy. I can forgive him and me. I needed that.
129. Deep in the Heart by Staci Stallings contemporary Christian romance. Yes, I listened to the audiobook on YouTube, again. I love her stories.
130. To Protect and Serve (Courage series Book 1) by Staci Stallings contemporary Christian romance. I've read it before. This is the next book she's offering as an audiobook on YouTube. I enjoyed the first chapter installment and decided to reread it because I couldn't wait for the rest of the story. I look forward to listening to each chapter. She posts something at 5pm PDT every day. It's fun to be there for the premiere introduction.
