Christmas Blessings

Beth Ann Chiles/ Charity/ 7 Comments/ 509

I know you are thinking to yourself — c’mon Beth Ann. It isn’t even Thanksgiving yet. Why on earth are you writing about Christmas? That’s unlike you! You never decorate your house until after the Thanksgiving stuff is all cleared up and put away. Well, Continue reading →

The Good Girl

I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...
