26. Gambler (The Coalition Rebellion: Ziem series Book 5) by Justine Davis Sci-Fi fantasy romance. I cried, sad and happy tears. Longest of the books in the series and only a brief steamy scene, the wedding night, two pages. Love the characters. Tough to put down the story.
27. Renegade (The Coalition Rebellion: Ziem series Book 6) by Justine Davis Sci-Fi fantasy romance. Hate to see the end but a satisfying end.
28. Her Un-Valentine by Justine Davis suspense romance. A stand alone novella. Nail biting with a touch of humor. A little steamy. Fun.
29. Sackett's Land (Sackett series Book 1) by Louis L'Amour western. While it's listed has a western, it takes place in 1600. An unexpected enjoyment to recognize the mention of the battle of Lepanto, as I've listened to the narration of that bit of history by Buck Sexton a few times. L'Amour did his homework. The book is written in first person, a point of view I'm not particularly fond of reading. However, L'Amour writes not in an effort to reveal the character's inner thoughts and feelings but instead in the mode of storytelling, an autobiography.
30. To the Far Blue Mountains (The series Book 2) by Louis L'Amour western. While it's listed has a western but takes place in 1600. This is a continuation of the previous characters. The first time I read the Sackett series I didn't know much about my family history. The story delved into Wales, the Welsh, Celts, and Ireland. I also knew nothing about St. John's, Newfoundland, until recently when I discovered the police series "Hudson and Rex." L'Amour's writing is sometimes poetic, painting stunning pictures.
