Moses Lake, book 3
Contemporary
Fiction
About the book:
Mallory Hale’s life veers unexpectedly off course when
she falls hopelessly in love. After a whirlwind romance, Mallory finds herself
leaving the bustle of Capitol Hill for the remote town of Moses Lake,
Texas—with husband, stepson, and a U-Haul in tow.
A sweet, mishap filled journey into marriage, motherhood,
and ranch living ensues. But despite the adventure of her rosy new life, she
soon discovers that even small towns have secrets.
When hints of a scandal emerge, Mallory comes to realize
that this middle-of-nowhere home—the one she wasn’t sure she wanted—is the very
place she’ll risk everything to save. Read chapter one!

My thoughts:
Have you ever gone from the hustle and bustle of the city
and transplanted yourself into the middle of nowhere? Have you ever made a semi
impulsive decision that changes the course of your life forever? That’s exactly
what Mallory has done. We catch up with her in her busy life as a staffer in
Washington, D.C.
Enter Daniel Everson. Cue the fireworks. You guessed
it…love at first sight, except this time there is a bit of a twist. Daniel
comes with an adorable little boy and an amazing job offer that will take him
to rural Texas. What’s a girl to do? Why load up and go with him of course!
Don’t worry, they get married first. Let me tell you, the honeymoon scene is
worth the price of the book by far.
I have completely fallen in love with Lisa Wingate’s
writing style. She has the ability to make you laugh out loud one minute and in
the next you will find yourself pondering what has just appeared on the page.
Her characters are quirky and funny but have a depth about them that makes you
feel as if you've already met them.
Firefly Island
is the third book in the Moses Lake series. In my opinion it is the best of the
three. I really liked Larkspur Cove
and Blue Moon Bay, but I loved Firefly Island. Each book in this series
can easily be read as a stand-alone book. There are background characters such
as the Docksiders that appear in each installment, but the story lines are all
unique.
For a little bit of romance, a little bit of suspense and
a whole lot of thought provoking scenarios, pick this book up. I am pretty sure
that you are going to enjoy it!
