I have a treat for you guys! Not one blog tour post but a two in one book review!
The first title is " Queen of the Wave" by Janice Thompson.
This is an American Tapestry book put out by Summerside Press.
First off I love the dress on the girl on this cover, it's so cute!
This book takes you back to the era of the infamous Titanic voyage. My sister is obsessed with all things Titanic so I will be passing this book on to her to read too.
Janice has a very descriptive writing style which compels you to really dive into this story.
~~~~~~~~~~
Pampered doesn't even begin to subscribe Jacqueline Abington and once she decides a marriage to the family gardener then that is exactly what she is going to do and nothing will stop her plan.
Even if that means bribing a poor women to take her place on the maiden Titanic Voyage.
Tessa, the one being convinced to take the voyage feels like she has been handed the greatest opportunity but isn't sure how she feels about assuming another persons identity.
She feels like she is living in a dream as she experiences what it is like to be a spoiled socialite for the first time in her life and is starting to enjoy her time when a wealthy American man takes more than a passing interest in her.
Can she keep up the ruse or will her lies destroy her hope for the future?

You guys ready for round two of this book review??
The second title is "Where the Trail Ends" by Melanie Dobson.
It is also An American Tapestry novel and Summerside publishes this one too.
This title takes us back to the time of the Oregon Trail back in 1842.
Two very different journeys but both so important in our history and I love how descriptive both authors are.
It is really fun to get to dive into this period in history and almost feel like you get to experience it too even though we were all born well past this time.
This book will keep you flipping page after page to see what happens next!
~~~~~~~~~~
Samantha Waldron and her family have set out on one of the most tedious and dangerous journeys that they could have taken on as a family.
They are doing fairly well on their own until a horrible accident occurs and they have to rely on the help of a complete stranger to save their lives before the icy river completely closes in on them.
When Samantha puts her mind to something she is one determined lady so when she decides that she is going to make a home for herself and her brother no matter that she is unattached she fully plans on making that happen. What she didn't plan on, however, was falling for the dashing Alex who saved them.
~~~~~~~~~~
Will she make her home for her brother or will things with Alex pan out in the long run?
Read it and find out for yourself!!!
