Forgotten
Reviewed by

****

This book is billed as "Contemporary Romantic Suspense," not the type of novel I'd normally read. My mother was a romance novelist, though, and even though romance and suspence aren't my cup of tea, I read, edited and enjoyed my mom's books.

5-Star Review of Courage of the Heart

*****
Courage of the Heart by Chelle Cordero begins as an office romance that quickly turns into an unlikely love affair.

In one fell swoop, life changes when the past confronts the present with mystery, intrigue and life threatening situations. More than once I found my heart racing as I turned the page. Kudos to Ms. Cordero for penning an entertaining read.
