   "MY HEART BELONGS ON MACKINAC ISLAND" 
YOU WILL WANT TO READ THIS GREAT BOOK!




Journey now to Mackinac Island where...
A Tangled Gilded Age Love Story Unfolds.

Although the Winds of Mackinac Inn has been in her mother’s family for generations, Maude Welling’s father refuses to let her run it without the guidance of a husband. So she seeks to prove her worth and independence by working incognito as a maid at the Grand Hotel.

Undercover journalist Ben Steffans, posing as a wealthy industrialist, pursues a story about impoverished men chasing heiresses at the famed hotel.  While undercover, he becomes attracted to an intriguing maid. By an act of heroism Ben endears himself to the closed-mouthed islanders—including Maude—and he digs deep for his story.

But when scandal threatens, will the growing love between Maude and Ben be scuttled when truths are revealed?


GOOD MORNING!

   I hope you all had a great weekend! I did, I got to see my 3 grandchildren who are growing way to fast.

I love to read books by Carrie Fancett Pagels and she has a new great book that is
Wow! “My Heart Belongs on Mackinac Island.” Hop on a boat and visit this island.
I enjoyed Maude’s zest for life and her love for her family’s generational home that also serves as an Inn. I loved the good characters and wanted to shake the no-so-good ones. Maude, her brother, Jack, and a mysterious lady will make you want to unpack and stay a while. This was a charming, interesting and well written book.
I loved it.

Blessings,
Karen Hadley

 Hello! I’ve been gone for a long while from my blog due to personal reasons that lasted longer that anticipated.  But I’m back and ready to get started! I’m hoping and praying to make some changes to my blog. There will be book reviews (I make mine short because I don’t like to read a long review).    Places that have free books and anything else I come across that you might want to know. I also what to incorporate Bible verses and short studies of Bible verses or words from the verses.  I also want to let you see the newest member of our family and her antics.
