Kidnapped as a child near Darfur and enslaved for years, Josephine Bakhita endured unimaginable suffering before finding refuge in Venice and embracing religious life. This meticulously researched biography traces her extraordinary transformation from captive to Catholic nun, drawing on her own dictated autobiography, canonization records, and extensive sources. Journalist Roberto Italo Zanini chronicles how Bakhita's quiet service—as cook, nurse, and doorkeeper in a small Italian convent—touched countless lives and sparked reported miracles after her death in 1947. Her shrine now draws pilgrims worldwide seeking intercession from a saint who intimately understood loss yet radiated unwavering faith. Includes 16 pages of photographs documenting her remarkable journey.

great start to a series
Format: Kindle
This was my first read from this author, and I am intrigued to continue the series! This is a college, why choose, between 4 football guys and the new girl in town. The FMC, Joey, is accused of seeing something she shouldn’t and is forced to move in with the guys in their isle until the end of football season. Joey is a girl who’s had a shit hand in life, but has continued to persevere. She deals with silent demons but doesn’t let them take control of her life. She has spunk and doesn’t cower. Kylian is the BEST. Hands down my favorite! He’s our blunt, neurodivergent cinnamon roll. Locke is a close second, he’s all about Joey from the moment they meet. Decker - now he’ll grow on you, I’m curious to see how he expands in book 2. Kendrick- not a fan lol. But there’s always a least favorite in these stories. This is a slow burn, but to be expected when there are multiple MMC to contend with. This story had good flow, and really grabbed my attention. I read in one sitting. I plan to continue the series!

Interesting Start
Format: Kindle
I have a harder time with why choose books that take place in contemporary versus fantasy books, because oftentimes the scenarios required to make it work just seem to out there for me. I felt like this book kind of strayed into that territory. The whole basis of the book is that Josephine accidentally sees something she honestly does not really even understand and the four guys solution is basically to kidnap her and make her live with them in their home. There was a bit of suspension of disbelief required for me in this book. That being said there were some things I did enjoy in this book. I felt like the men in this book were interesting and different from one another. They weren’t just cut out of hot football players that have the same personalities and ideals. Personally, for me, I really preferred Kylian because he was the nerdy guy, and that just works for me. He also has some sensory sensitivities and because of that and his coping mechanisms he has the ability to connect more with Jo than any of the other guys given her backstory. Josephine as a character is okay for me, I’m interested to see how she evolves. She has a complex/tragic backstory which I think will play into things a lot more in the next books to come. I do think she goes along with the scenario waaaayyyy to quickly and almost passively, which I have a hard time buying into. Overall, I want to see where the next book goes, given it does end with high stakes and a cliffhanger.

Gah! My heart! These boys! So much love!
Format: Kindle
I have so much love in my heart for this book. While that cliffhanger was absolutely atrocious and soul wrecking, I couldn't begin to explain the obsession that has begun in my bones. These characters are delicious, their interactions are so strong and real, and their pasts, their trauma, are so heartfelt and elicit all the feels. I love them, I love their stories, the details and relationships are so poignant that I craved every moment of this journey. I seriously devoured this book, I could not put it down, well into early dawn hours just to finish. It was like breathing, and I didn't want to stop. Abby has a serious new fan, and I'm so happy to have stumbled upon this book and author. Now, I absolutely have to get to the next one because I'm suffocating with the need for Kylian and the others, of course. Soo so worth it!
