Being Known
Haven Makers #2
by Robin Jones Gunn
Whenever I close my eyes and think of my mother, I see her red toenails. Her perfectly manicured toes flaunting her signature nail-polish color, Oh My, Cherry Pie.
I’m super loving this novel. It is so good!
If you have not started the Haven Makers series, I highly recommend reading book 1, Becoming Us. You will definitely want to read this one so you are ready for Being Known.
NOW IT IS YOUR TURN!

I have loved this series! The Christy Miller books were my favorites when I was growing up, and I’m so glad Robin Jones Gunn is still writing about her 🙂
Today on my blog I’m featuring The Traitor’s Pawn by Lisa Harris. Right now I’m reading Just the Way You Are by Pepper Basham, so I’ll share the first line here: “One step into the massive, glass-walled waiting area was all it took.”
Have a great weekend! Happy reading! 🙂

On my blog, I’m sharing Lady at Arms by Tamara Leigh. Here, I will share the first line from Chapter 21 of my current read, Kisses in Keystone by Kari Trumbo. “Hugh pulled his hat low to keep the sun off and shrugged on his black coat. The badge Bullock given him was buried in the bottom of his shaving kit. He hadn’t looked at it in a week.” I wish you a healthy and enjoyable weekend!

I think this character and I had very different mothers, because while my mother’s signature nail polish color was also bright red, she called it “hooker red.” xD It was apparently an inside joke between her and her best friend lol. Glad to see you’re enjoying this book!
