Love Scattered in the Wind by Linda Phillips is the fourth installment in the Follow Your Heart series. The story follows Ember Pines, who has just accepted a proposal from Ari and couldn’t be happier—though her best friend, Addley, is secretly envious.

Soon, a dark presence begins to loom, and Ember’s loved ones, including Ari, grow worried for her safety. When Ember suddenly loses consciousness, she awakens in an unfamiliar realm where she is cared for by a kind man named Tyrus McKendry.

Meanwhile, Ari is frantic in his search for Ember, and suspicion falls on Addley. But what truly happened? And will Ember ever remember who she really is?

I thoroughly enjoyed binge-reading this book over the weekend. Linda Phillips’s descriptive writing style makes the story vivid, and Ember’s character is instantly endearing. The pacing is excellent, the cover art is beautiful, and I loved every moment of the journey.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“The Gorgy Creech” by Ben Linehan is a delightful children’s book. The Gorgy Creech is an extraordinary creature, admired by everyone who crosses its path. With its luscious eyelashes and a strikingly colorful tail of fancy feathers, it’s impossible to miss.

The Gorgy Creech sees itself as beautiful, glamorous, and a true star. But what happens when a newcomer, the Titchy Glitzy Gasbag, arrives and begins drawing attention away? Will The Gorgy Creech’s confidence falter, or is there more to this story? You’ll have to read to discover whether this marks the end of its stardom.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and found it surprisingly relatable. The ending was refreshing and unexpected—I loved how it wrapped up. At its heart, the story is a gentle reminder not to undervalue our own worth when someone else steps into the spotlight. Through its playful characters, young readers will also take away lessons of generosity, kindness, and unity.

Ben Linehan has crafted a wonderful story for children, and I’m excited to explore more of his work in the future.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
In this book, the author invites us to take responsibility for the world we are co-creating. It serves as a call to those who feel, deep within, that they are here for a greater purpose. The insights shared offer both practical tools and a deeper understanding to help readers release limiting beliefs, reconnect with nature’s wisdom, and harness our collective power to heal and co-create a world that uplifts everyone.

Through Penny’s chapter, Gail encourages us to embrace change, question assumptions, and take small, consistent steps toward a healthier and more conscious way of living. Steven’s chapter highlights the importance of not outsourcing our health, reminding us that we are far more capable than we’ve been led to believe. This chapter personally inspired me to dig deeper into the root cause of my frequent headaches.

Healing, as the book emphasizes, is a journey that requires courage, experimentation, and trust in our inner wisdom. The perspectives on health, purpose, power, and sovereignty make this work truly impactful.

Overall, this book provides readers with the tools to navigate uncertainty, reclaim their inner authority, and reconnect with the deeper reasons for our existence. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it—it’s a powerful, thought-provoking work that I wholeheartedly recommend.

The Division

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸: The Division 📚
𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿: Cristina Mia ✍️

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
The Division by Cristina Mia is a captivating tale set in Hargrave Meadow, a land once rich with green pastures and golden abundance. Now, however, it lies suffocated under a heavy fog known as The Division.

At the helm is Baxter, a basset hound, who, along with his council of foxes, holds endless meetings that only worsen the situation. Their decisions lead to an unequal distribution of resources, leaving many animals struggling. Among them, Felix, a falcon, begins to question his leaders’ commands. When new restrictions are announced—granting more to the peacocks and less to everyone else—Felix was reminded of a time when falcons once protected all the creatures of the meadow.

Will others rise beside Felix to uncover the peacocks’ deception and dismantle the false divisions imposed upon them?

This story carries a powerful message about how division can be manipulated by those seeking advantage. It reminds us that even when confusion clouds our vision, the truth is always within reach. Readers who enjoy richly layered stories with diverse characters will find themselves immersed in this book. Ultimately, it is a story of resilience, unity, and hope in the face of turmoil.

Interview with author Melissa Weales

  1. Please introduce yourself so that the readers will get to know you better.

A1. My name is Melissa Weales and this is my first book. I have been a computer programmer for over 25 years and had always thought that some day I would write a great novel. I even had it as items two and three on my bucket list. Little did I know, it would be a children’s book instead of a novel and it would be years after I intended. But, here we are and I couldn’t be happier about it.

  1. What is the inspiration behind your book “Noshi the Naughty Reindeer”?

A2. Last year I had planted this beautiful petunia in a planter I have that looks like a snail. One morning when I got up and looked out the window, my petunia was lying on the walkway. I replanted it and all was well for a week. Again, one morning, it was on the walkway again. I looked at my door video and found it was a deer pulling it out and laying it down. I watched and said, “You naughty reindeer!” That kept rolling around in my head until it resulted in the writing of this book.

  1. When did you realize you want to be an author?

A3. When I was in the 8th grade. It started with poems and short stories.

  1. Please tell us something about your book “Noshi the Naughty Reindeer”

A4. Noshi is like most youngsters in that she thinks more about her entertainment than the feelings of others. This ends up getting her into trouble and helps her see how even though she is having a good time, she is causing others great sadness and allows her to fix the harmful things she has done.

  1. For which age group is your book “Noshi the Naughty Reindeer?

A5. I think it would entertain readers 5 to 12.

  1. What is your favorite Quote?

A6. When Noshi says, “Wow, how old is that flower?”

  1. What suggestion do you want to give to parents of little readers regarding a reading habit?

A7. Reading gives everyone the ability to step into worlds they may never have the ability to go to. It inspires dreams, ideas and learning. Simply reading to, or with, your young reader every night is enough to get them interested in a life long love of books.

  1. What does literary success look like to you?

A8. Creating books that brings joy to others.

  1. Lastly, who is your inspiration in life and why?

A9. Who inspires me? My family, because they are the loves of my life.
