Amber Morn (Kanner Lake Series #4)

Brandilyn Collins

Zondervan, 2008

the last in a thrilling series!
Amber Morn is the final book in the Kanner Lake series by Collins. The story is gripping, perhaps more so because I have read the first three books in the series, Violet Dawn, Coral Moon, and Crimson Eve. By now, I feel like I "know" the characters. I found ...

love this series
I love reading mystery and suspense and have never read a Christian writer before... I must say that this is one of the better series that I have read. I could not put the book down until it was finished and then read each of the O'Malley books every night thereafter!

Terri Blackstock
