I absolutely loved this Love Inspired Historical Romance. It had action, romance, children and a goat. It is set in the 1860's and has what I call flavor, in it. It was a real treat, with a few laughs sprinkled in here and there. Want to read more of this author's work. I've rated this a 5*.

How about Valentine's Day Romance Anthologies? This is about as close to a box of chocolates as I can get for you.  I thought I would slip it to you early. 

I hope you are surrounded with love everyday and of every kind! 

My lists are never in any particular order.  Enjoy
