Deep in the heart of medieval England… adventure awaits!

What Others Are Saying About Wynnewood:

“I like the mystery surrounding Dove, and of course, the dragon. I’m happy that there will be multiple books so the mystery keeps coming.  I enjoyed Philip’s story about becoming an archer and the different places he was able to go to learning about it.  I’d like to do that.”  ~Jonah in CO

~~~*~~~*~~~

“It’s Awesome!  I can’t wait for the sequel.  It’s so exciting because it’s about a girl and a boy who have adventures.  I love adventures especially those that are fantasy.”   Mitchell in WV

~~~*~~~*~~~

“It is exciting; you want to read more and more and more. Has she finished the second one yet?  It was like a mystery and I love a good mystery.”  Mary in NC

~~~*~~~*~~~

“We have enjoyed reading Shadows and Secrets aloud as a family.  Our children cannot wait for the sequel to make its debut.  Thanks for blessing us through your writing!”  The “M” family in AL

~~~*~~~*~~~

“I’m looking forward to Volume II. Chautona really created a wonderful world where values mean something. Children not only get to take a great adventure into a different world, they learn what it is to be both human and humane. I had a wonderful time reading this story to my six-year-old son, who loves fantasy already. Now, he’s a huge fan of Wynnwood!”  DT in FL

~~~*~~~*~~~

“This is a wonderful story that takes you into a mildly fantastical land (meaning minus the magic and witches) that is filled with adventure and fun. Rich characters and detailed imagery make this a fantastic read. This book will certainly help instill in your child(ren) a love of reading.”  Christy in MO

~~~*~~~*~~~

“I really enjoyed this historical fiction/fantasy young adult novel. The setting is Medieval Northern England and is very realistic. There just also happens to dragons near the village.”  Stacy via LibraryThing

~~~*~~~*~~~

“My son adored Shadows and Secrets. He jammed through it in a day or two. He really liked the way you built the setting and made Wynnewood come alive. He thought your characters were well-formed. It left him longing for more – and he is eagerly awaiting the next installment.  As for the rest of us, its on the top of our ‘read-aloud’ list – – and the girls have been studying the map in preparation for our reading!!”    A family in CA

Taking the pulse of Christian fiction

Episode 476: A Chat with Katie M. Reid
byChautona Havig

 Christmas is beautiful any time of year–whether it’s in autumn to prepare you for the upcoming season, in winter while you’re in active holiday mode, prolonging the joy into spring, or having fun with Christmas in July (when we often need the illusion of cool!) Listen in to see what’s up in Bavarian Falls this summer!

note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.

 I had a blast learning about Katie’s planning, choosing the place, the in-person research to get things just right–everything!  

A Very Bavarian Summer by Katie M. Reid

Holly Noel Brigham is thrilled about her boyfriend’s upcoming visit to Bavarian Falls. What could go wrong? Navigating a long-distance relationship is no picnic. Work demands, a wildfire, and insecurities threaten Holly’s and Nik’s summer plans and future goals. What was supposed to be a season of carefree dates and tender kisses is complicated by unexpected loss, a surprise visitor, and the pressure of the Christmas in July Festival. In an effort to strengthen their relationship, Holly and Nik decide to ask each other twenty questions… What do you dream about? What makes you cry? What are you second-guessing? What makes you angry? Why do you love me? The questions eerily parallel reality, causing a roller coaster of emotions and a high-elevation argument. Is Holly’s and Nik’s relationship strong enough to endure some twists and turns or is this the end of the road?

Learn more about Katie on her WEBSITE and follow  her on GoodReads and BookBub.

This might be my favorite line from Take Cover so This might be my favorite line from Take Cover so far (although it is almost tied with one about taking out predators!). I think I like it most because Liv is imagining what this guy would say if she asked why he never tries to get his wife to go shopping or to the spa. She's right, too. He 100% would want her around as much as she wanted to be.  4% done... 96 to go.  It goes up for preorder at the halfway point!
