Kevin's Natural Frozen Meals

I recently had the chance to try the Kevin's Natural Frozen Meals as part of a Tryabox promotion. Complimentary coupons were provided to me through Tryazon so that I could try the product and share about the experience through my blog. All opinions expressed are my own

I am always looking for quick, flavorful options for feeding my busy family. We try to have dinner together a few times a week but with busy schedules, it can be hard to time things up for everyone to sit down together. I had never tried any of the Kevin's Natural Foods products but was intrigued by the variety of options they have.
The Kevin's Natural Family Size Butter Chicken is available in your grocer's freezer. It had a really nice curry flavor. I was impressed to see the pieces of chicken, the peas and the rice when I put the bag into my skillet. Unlike other frozen rice dishes I have had before, I felt the rice maintained a nice texture after preparation. The bag does have 4 servings but if your family is older, you might find that it is not quite enough to fill them up.

The other variety we tried was the Kevin's Natural Foods Family Size Teriyaki Chicken. It had a great flavor, the sauce was a good balance of sweet and salty and there was plenty of sauce for the product. I was happy to see the good size pieces of chicken, along with broccoli, cauliflower and carrots. The meal was easy to prep and turned out great. I served with some spaghetti to help stretch the four servings to feed my family of four.

I thoroughly enjoyed the two varieties I tried and look forward to trying other varieties. Have you tried Kevin's Natural Foods frozen family meals? What is your favorite?

Witness Safeguard Mission by Carol J. Post

A complimentary review copy was provided to me.

Witness Safeguard Mission by Carol Post is exactly the kind of fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat story I’ve come to expect from her. The suspense kicks in immediately, as two sisters discover intruders on their property and witness a shocking attack on their father—launching a chain of danger that never lets up.

As they flee, they cross paths with Officer Braydon Feldman and his K-9, Caesar. Thrown together under intense circumstances, they’re forced to rely on one another, gradually building trust while navigating constant danger. Along the way, their connection grows as they help each other—Braydon protecting them from immediate threats, and both finding ways to heal from past wounds.

Even as they try to stay one step ahead, the danger keeps resurfacing in unexpected ways, making it hard to put the book down—I finished it in under 24 hours, even with a full workday in between (otherwise I would have finished it quicker!). Questions keep you turning pages: How do their pursuers keep finding them? When will they finally be safe? And what happens once the danger is over?

The characters are especially engaging. Nicole, her younger sister Maddy, Braydon, and his sister Brandi add depth and balance, showing both the intensity of the situation and the importance of family and connection. Watching their relationships develop is just as compelling as unraveling the mystery.

With nonstop tension, relatable characters, and a strong thread of faith and healing, this is a compelling, quick read. If you enjoy suspense that pulls you in from the first page and doesn’t let go, this is definitely one to check out.

About the Book:

A family in a killer’s crosshairs.
A K-9 determined to defend.

When Nicole Woodard and her young sister witness their father’s murder by an unknown assailant, Nicole knows they’re next on the killer’s hit list. Now they must rely on Officer Braydon Feldman and his K-9 partner, Caesar, for protection. The killer will stop at nothing to silence the sisters and keep the crime hidden. But what could their father have been involved in that got him killed? With attacks coming from all sides and dangerous family secrets being exposed, can Braydon and Nicole stay alive long enough to uncover the truth before the killer strikes again?

From medical secretary to court reporter to property manager to owner of a special events decorating company, my resume reads as if I don’t know what I want to be when I grow up.

My books have won several awards and been nominated for two RITA® awards and an RT Reviewers’ Choice Best Book Award.

After spending most of my life in Florida, a few years ago, I moved to the mountains of North Carolina, where I write my stories outside on the back deck in the summertime and inside in front of the fireplace in the wintertime. When I’m not writing or doing writerly things, I enjoy hiking, camping, kayaking—almost anything outdoors. My two grown daughters and grandkids live too far away for my liking, so I now pour all that nurturing into taking care of two sassy black cats.

Detecting Deadly Threats by Carol J. Post

A complimentary review copy was provided to me.

It's been a few years now since I first learned about Carol J. Post and her books. It turns out that she once lived in the community in Ohio where I live. It was a fun connection to make. She has written many books and I have enjoyed all that I have read.

One of the things that I enjoyed about this book (and her other books) is that from the first page, you are dropped right into the action. She takes time to set the scene and for you to meet the characters as the story unfolds. This approach makes it a book that is easy to start reading and then to keep on reading, as you want to continue to learn more about what is going on and why.

The characters aren't perfect but they are doing their best and it makes them very endearing and I find myself rooting for them to not only find out and overcome the current issue but also to build on the connection that the reader can see blossoming between them.

About the Book:

With ruthless criminals closing in,

this K-9 is on a mission to defend.

Amateur photographer Lauren Hollander narrowly escapes a kidnapping attempt—moments before a disastrous earthquake rocks her small town, destroying her store. She’s saved from the rubble by Zachery Kimball and his search and rescue K-9, Ranger. Someone is determined to get to Lauren—but who, and why? Is it tied to her brother’s criminal past? Or are the culprits after the pictures on her camera? Under Zach and Ranger’s protection, Lauren races to discover the truth behind all the attacks. But as the danger escalates, can they survive long enough to untangle the mystery that’s putting their lives on the line?
