Even If I Perish

Title: Even If I Perish

Author: Terrie Todd

Publisher: Mountain Brook Ink

Genre: Historical Fiction, Christian Fiction, WWII

Source: Author Provided

My Review:

Even if I Perish is told through a mix of letters and the character's perspective. It is based on the true accounts of Mary Cornish during WWII, and the CORB program that sent children from England to other countries. It is a harrowing story of loss, devastation, determination, and faith.

Fairest of Heart

Author: Karen Witemeyer

Publisher: Bethany House

Genre: Historical Fiction, Fairy Tale retelling, Christian Fiction, Western

My Review:

Fairest of Heart is the first of Karen Witemeyer's Texas Ever After series. With the stories being fairy tale retellings, they don't need to be read in any particular order.

My Review:

One of the things I enjoy about Ginny L. Yttrup's stories is that they are all standalone novels. Convergence is a masterfully woven story that immediately sucked me in.

The Highland Heist

Title: The Highland Heist

Series: Freddie & Grace Mystery #4

Author: Pepper Basham

Narrator: Pamala Klein

Publisher: Barbour Fiction

Genre: Historical Fiction, Mystery, Christian Fiction,

Source: Hoopla

My Review:

My husband and I listened to The Highland Heist by Pepper Basham on our trip this week. I have read the first three books, but he has not. I think the books are best read in chronological order so that you understand everything mentioned. However, I only had to stop the recording once to explain something to my husband; he got the gist of everything else. I thought the narration was okay.

Sense and Suitability

Title: Sense and Suitability

Author: Pepper Basham

Narrators: Fiona Hardingham and Christopher Ashman

Publisher: Thomas Nelson Audible Audio

Genre: Regency, Christian Fiction, Christian Romance, Classic Retelling,

Source: Net Galley

RELEASES: October 14, 2025

My Review:

I did not like Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility. But when I saw Pepper Basham had a book coming out loosely based on it, I knew I had to read Sense and Suitability. Why? Because Pepper Basham wrote it. Also, this is Basham's first foray into the Regency genre.

Publisher: Kregel

Genre: Christian Fiction, Women's Fiction, Contemporary Fiction

Enchanting the Heiress

Title: Enchanting the Heiress

Series: Hearts on the Heath #3

AuthorKristi Ann Hunter

Publisher: Bethany House

Genre: Historical, Christian Fiction, Regency, Romance

Source: Library

My Review:

Enchanting the Heiress is the third and final book in the Hearts on the Heath series. It can be read as a standalone novel, but I recommend reading the first two books, or at least the second, as Jonas and Harriet are first introduced in those books. It will give you a broader understanding of their character and interactions with their friends.

Winning the Gentleman

Title: Winning the Gentleman

Series: Hearts on the Heath #2

AuthorKristi Ann Hunter

Narrator: Ann Marie Gideon

Publisher: Bethany House

Genre: Historical, Christian Fiction, Regency, Romance

Source: Hoopla

My Review:

Winning the Gentleman is the second book in the Hearts on the Heath series. While it could be read as a stand-alone novel, I recommend reading Vying for the Viscount first, as that is where we are first introduced to Aaron Whitworth (our mmc).
