Blackbeard's Treasure by Lizzy Stevens
What first attracted me to want to read this is the word treasure. Love a mystery and knew this would be one.
Remember reading some of Lizzy's other books and loved that she got to the point of the matter, weaving a tale that kept you interested throughout the book. This was one of her best romance/mystery ones to date.
Starts out with Cassie who is attempting to clean out her grandfather's house in Missouri and has to go through boxes of things he had inherited when he bought the house. Piles of boxes from floor to ceiling. I can just imagine the treats there. She did find a journal and takes it and her helped Levi back to San Diego for a week so she can check on her diving school and her condo on the beach.
The journal speaks of Edward Teach and how he had passed away and left her mother a treasure. Cassie didn't know the connection between that name and the pirate Blackbeard til Levi brought it up while helping her sort through boxes.
Just when the clues are all adding up and they are about to discover more things a medical emergency happens putting a halt to all those plans. Some unspoken things are finally said between the two so they know where they stand...
Love all the instructions and time spent in the water diving.
Very detailed descriptions and just the words used make this an excellent read, one that takes you to unexplored places...… (más)

a surprise for christmas by lizzy stevens
and what a surprise it is. wow what every single woman dreams of finding,
a baby on the doorstep to raise as your own. kinda reminded me of the baby in a basket
among the grassy reeds-a religious story.

this story a year later has upheaval as the father comes to find his daughter-not knowing the mother was pregnant.

magic happens and they fall in love to make it a memorable Christmas for them all.

I rate this a 5, it's just the right length and not too heavy, just a light story.… (más)

brandon's secret by Lizzy Stevens
strong and to the point in a nice way, with the ocean as a back drop.
this book given to 5 others each would come up with a different meaning and
how it effects them. ending took me by surprise and really appreciate how the
reader is informed that things don't always appear as what you thought. love the
explanation. i rate this book a 4.5 as i'd want more background and more for the future of the same characters.

note: also now that I know the author has done other stories I want to read all of them.… (más)
