Decorating & Gardening Books:

I have always loved to see what decorating and gardening books are on Amazon, and sometimes, I indulge in buying one.

Books:

The novel How to Disappear is about Zara’s daughter, Lauren, who witnesses a terrible crime. But speaking up comes with a price, and when Zara’s identity is revealed online, it puts a target on her back. The only choice is to disappear. Lauren will give up everything and everyone she loves to keep Zara safe, even her husband. There will be no goodbyes. Their pasts will be rewritten—new names, homes, and lives.

In The Likely Event, this military romance is about Izzy Astor’s chance encounter. She gets on a plane, and ninety seconds after takeoff, their plane goes down in the Missouri River. Their lives change. Nate goes on to a career in the military while Izzy finds her way into politics. Despite a few chance encounters over the years, the timing never feels right. Then comes a high-stakes reunion in Afghanistan, where Nate is tasked with protecting Izzy’s life.

I ordered this book.
