The Rose and her Thorn by Nicole Lam
After I take his Mustang for a joyride, my dad ships me off to England to stay with his old friend, the count of Thornfield. I try my hardest to avoid an awkward month-long stay. Even if it means pretending to be a gardening assistant in the quiet gardens of Thornfield Hall. But the handsome gardener I’m working for is keeping something from me… Like the fact that he’s the count’s son.

Lassos and Locks by Akaysha Mynes
In the small town of Enchanted, Texas, Raelynn Tress struggles under her controlling mother's watchful eye at Mama Pearl's diner. When a chance encounter with Kendrick King, a compassionate rancher's son, shatters her sheltered existence, Raelynn discovers a world beyond her confines. Torn between family loyalty and newfound freedom, she must confront her past, her identity, and the challenges of a forbidden romance as she fights for her future.

The Amber Locket by Amy Walsh
Mari Wilson expected to return a lost locket—not wander into the private family wing of a whimsical lodge, topple a little boy’s plastic brick creation, and accidentally fall asleep in his empty bed, earning the fury of a very protective father. Once she discovers the locket’s owner, Mari and the gradually-thawing Orson Barrett must follow a trail of secrets and second chances to uncover a heritage that refuses to stay buried.

is enjoyed 2 of the 3 books

First off, let me say I am a huge Amy Walsh fan. Several of her books have tied back to Scranton, Pennsylvania. And almost everyone has a little bit of a mystery to it. I would recommend this book because I enjoyed both the second and third one the best. I read the first one well not a huge fan. It did keep me interested.

The last book will not extremely long touched on a subject that many experience in today’s world. Actually it touched on a few subjects. But like Amy’s and the one before it, it kept me interested in the plot, moved along really well.
