Baked Chicago’s Simply Decadent Brownies Cookbook
hey looked and tasted impressive but the directions were easy to follow and didn’t require me to purchase a lot of special ingredients that I would never use again. Definitely a good purchase for me.

Your family will beg you to make the Deconstructed S’Mores Brownies or Chipotle Chocolate Brownies for Sunday dinner. And when your significant other tastes the Dark Chocolate & Raspberry Liqueur Brownies, well let’s just say you’ll be calling the shots.
Filled with rich, colorful photographs and invaluable tips (aka Brownie Points), Baked Chicago’s Simply Decadent Brownies Cookbook is a collection of deliciously simple recipes that every home cook will turn to again and again.
Featured Recipe: Bourbon, Bacon & Pecan Brownies
Ingredients
6 slices of bacon
2 c all-purpose flour
1 t salt
10 oz dark chocolate, chopped
1/2 c pecans, chopped
2 T unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 c butter
4 eggs
1 c granulated sugar
1/2 c dark brown sugar
3 T bourbon
Directions
In medium skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Reserve 1/4 cup of the bacon fat and set aside. Let bacon cool and chop roughly. Set aside.
Preheat oven to 350° F. Lightly grease bottom of a 9×9-inch baking pan with butter or shortening.
In medium bowl, mix together flour, cocoa powder and salt. Set aside.
In large heatproof bowl set on top of small saucepan of simmering water, melt dark chocolate and butter. Stir constantly, until smooth. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
With electric mixer on medium-low speed, beat eggs, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until frothy (about 1 minute). Beat in melted chocolate mixture, bourbon and reserved bacon fat. Fold in flour mixture and pecans, just until combined.

A December Bride (A Year of Weddings Novella Book 1)
When I first heard about this series of novellas a couple of months ago, I was so excited! Not only would I get a new story every month for a year, but some of my favorite authors would be writing them! Win, win!
A year’s worth of novellas from twelve inspirational romance authors. Happily ever after guaranteed.
What started as a whim turned into an accidental—and very public—engagement. Can Layla and Seth keep up the façade in Chapel Springs this holiday season—for the sake of her career . . . and his heart?
Under normal circumstances, Seth Murphy—the best friend of Layla O’Reilly’s ex-fiancé—would be the last person she’d marry. But the news of their upcoming (and phony) nuptials convinces a big client that Layla may be high-society enough to work for his agency—a coup that would put her fledgling home-staging business on the map.
Seth has secretly loved Layla for years, even when she was dating his best friend. Maybe she’ll never forgive him for the way he hurt her back then, but he has to try. And Layla is willing to keep up their engagement farce until she’s landed her client.
For Layla, it’s the chance to save her career. But for Seth, it’s his last chance to win her heart.
“Denise Hunter knows how to warm up an inspirational romance with sizzling chemistry. You’ll fall in love with this December wedding story!” —Kristin Billerbeck, bestselling author of What a Girl Wants

The Secret Keeper(Home to Hickory Hollow Book #4)
.I am very happy I read the book and I think anyone who likes Amish fiction and Beverly Lewis’ other books will very much enjoy it also. I did give it 5 stars as it was a book I didn’t want to see end…and that, to me, means it was a very satisfying read!
With her love for all things old-fashioned, Jennifer Burns has often been told she’s an “old soul,” but no one is prepared for the young woman’s decision to set aside her modern life in favor of the Old Order Amish world. Yet Jenny does exactly that, adopting Plain dress and settling in with Samuel and Rebecca Lapp while she works as a mother’s helper for the bishop’s wife–a far cry from her former job as an x-ray technician.
The people of Hickory Hollow are curious about the beautiful young seeker among them, one handsome Amishman in particular. But he is not the only man vying for Jenny’s affections, and Jenny faces many challenges in the Proving time the brethren have set for her…challenges of the heart, as well as the spirit.
Will Jenny’s secrets keep her from the peace she longs for? Or will they lead the way home?

As a fan of both authors of this book, I had looked forward to reading PAPER ANGELS for well over a year before it was released, AND I had very high expectations. I can honestly say my expectations were met and exceeded!
Kevin Morrell is a forty-three-year-old husband and father who runs a successful design and marketing firm now suffering in the current economy. Attempting to navigate the hectic Christmas mall traffic, Kevin stumbles across the Salvation Army’s Angel Tree Project. His wife insists that he take a paper ornament.
The name on the ornament is Thomas Brandt, a fifteen-year-old still reeling from the implosion of his family—from years of verbal abuse from an alcoholic father to a struggling single mother who now finds herself and her children penniless. The only thing that has allowed Lynn to survive is her faith. Thomas shares that faith, but he also wonders why God has seemingly abandoned them.
Destined to become a holiday classic, Paper Angels shares “two intertwined stories about family life and hard times…the hope of the Christmas holiday and…the goodness and compassion of loving hearts” (RT Book Reviews).

In Search of Eden (The Second Chances Collection Book #2)
This is my first time reading anything written by Linda Nichols but if IN SEARCH OF EDEN is any indication, then I have found a new author. IN SEARCH OF EDEN is a powerful, thought provoking tale that haunts the reader long past when the last page is turned.
Today is your birthday…I want you to know that you are in my heart, as you always have been. I pray for you every day. I pray I did the right thing…
Thus wrote Miranda DeSpain on the anniversary of the day that changed her life forever, the day her heart was torn in peaces.

Happy Wives Club: One Woman’s Worldwide Search for the Secrets of a Great Marriage
I think this book is great for newlyweds and couples who are overall happy in their marriage. However, I think it might not be the best book for women to read who are struggling in their marriage. This is only because it is not always helpful to read about how great marriage is when your marriage is less than happy. Furthermore, there are some biblical reasons that support divorce under certain circumstances. Aside from those couple negatives, I think this is a great book that is a wonderful resource for couples.

I think this is an overall nice addition to your weeknight cooking shelf. As always, I am touched by Jordan’s commitment to families. This is the kind of cooking you share with your neighbor over the fence, at church, or in line at the supermarket. Her Southern Plate is my favorite book of the two. This book will make a nice gift for newlyweds, new cooks, and Southern plate fans with its mix of easily prepared recipes.

These are the everyday meals that Christy Jordan most loves to cook, and her family most loves to eat, and she serves them up with generous helpings of her folksy wisdom, gratitude, and lively stories.
Many of the recipes make ingenious use of the slow cooker or a single pot or skillet; require easily found supermarket ingredients; and are packed with time-saving tips and shortcuts. And the menu, well, it’s all good, includingCrispy Breaded Pork Chops with Milk Gravy, Beef and Broccoli,Spicy Fried Chicken,Craving Beans, Summer Corn Salad, Slow Cooker Baked Apples,Ice Cream Rolls, andCinnamon Pudding Cobbler.

Believe In Me: A London Christmas, sweet Christian romance (Love In Store Book 2)
A wonderful lighthearted Christian romance. The cast of characters are fantastic. I loved the London setting. If you enjoy a good clean Chritian romance and love escaping to faraway places, I would recommend this book. I read the prequel, The Wedding List which is a good read also. It is not necessary to read that first. I received a copy of this book for my honest review. Many thanks to the author.
All Cara Talbot wants for Christmas is for it to be over.
The workaholic accountant has good reason to hate Christmas, along with charmers like actor Nick Callaghan, playing celebrity Santa at the failing London department store she has the thankless job of managing.
She’s determined to save her staff’s jobs, Hollywood golden boy Nick just wants to live up to his Mr Unattached reputation and enjoy life. They couldn’t be more opposite. But if accepting Nick’s dare – dates showing her the magic of a London Christmas – can raise enough publicity to keep the store open, she’ll do it. Even if she risks falling in love with him in the process.
Can this surprising Santa allow love to deepen his untested faith and learn to commit, while helping Ms Scrooge believe in Christmas, and in God, once more?
Book 2 in the Love In Store series of sweet inspirational romances.
The series is set around a stately old London department store, and the same settings and staff pop up in each book. But there is no need to read them in order!
Every story is a complete romance, following a different couple through the trials and joys of a developing love, to their happy-ever-after.

A Watershed Year is one of the most poignant books I’ve ever read. Lucy is such a wonderful character and this story of how she finds herself is simply beautifully told.
What it means to be a mother, what it takes to save a life.
Lucy never confessed her love to her best friend, Harlan, before he passed away. Two months after his funeral, she is haunted by the power of things left unsaid. But then she receives the first of his e-mails arranged to be sent after his death. So begins the year that everything changes—Lucy’s watershed year.
In an e-mail, Harlan says something that consumes her: he’s certain Lucy is destined for motherhood. In her grief, she suddenly rediscovers hope, journeying to Russia to adopt a four-year-old boy. When she meets her son, Mat, for the first time, she realizes he’s also mending a wounded heart and is just as lost as she is. Together, they learn to trust, each helping the other to heal.
But just as they’re welcoming their new normal, Mat’s father comes to America to reclaim his son and reveals the truth about Mat’s past that might shatter Lucy’s fragile little family forever.
Susan Schoenberger’s breathtaking and powerful story of love, loss, redemption, and what it means to be a mother will leave you in awe as Lucy, in the depths of her greatest despair, somehow finds her greatest joy and embraces the beauty of second chances.
