Review: Reluctant Smuggler
The third installment in Jill Elizabeth Nelson’s To Catch a Thief series, Reluctant Smuggler is the kind of romantic suspense I’ve come to expect and love from her. For some reason the book is classified on the back as romance. While romance is a strong thread through the book, it is also packed with action and suspense, so don’t be …

She did an amazing job of blending humor, heart-wrenching honesty, and spiritual depth in her talks. What Lies Within is the first of her books that I have read all the way through. I picked up …
