Using story to connect YOU to the Master Storyteller

what I would tell you liz tolsma

What if You Had a Heartbreaking History You Didn’t Even Know about?

When Liz Tolsma told me about her trip to Greece and all that it entailed, I watched eagerly for information. We saw the places she went, the things she ate--everything on Facebook. She's a great traveler who shares everything, and now the research has paid off. Though the paperback doesn't release Continue Reading

The Space Between Words

How a Reading Challenge Helped Me Discover a Great Book

Chantel of Chantel Reads All Day and Hey Reader runs an annual "Read Your Bookshelf Challenge." Simply put, she challenges you to read the unread (lonely, miserable, aching to come alive in your brain) books on your bookshelf.  To do so, she gives you twelve prompts, one for each month, and Continue Reading

What’s Better Than a Great Christmas Romance Novella? So Much!

For the last couple of months, I can't blink without seeing the name Juliette Duncan, so when I saw her as next on my list for interviews, I was excited! And boy was chatting with her a delight. Juliette has TWO books releasing back to back almost, but the first one, Christmas at Goddard Downs Continue Reading

Anything but Plain by Suzanne Woods Fisher

How Do People React When They Feel Like No One Understands Them?

A chat with Suzanne Woods Fisher is always a delight, but I especially loved talking to her about her latest release, Anything but Plain, and what prompted her desire to write about a young Amish woman with ADHD. This episode blessed my socks off, and I can't wait for you to learn why. Listen in to Continue Reading

The Nutcracker's Suite Giveaway

Want a Great Gift for You and a Friend? The Nutcracker’s Suite Giveaway!

I don't know about you, but at Christmastime, I love a good mystery. If I can combine that mystery with something festive, well... yeah!  And I have a lot of friends who feel the same. So... I decided to do a giveaway! I'm calling it The Nutcracker's Suite Giveaway. You could say it's a "suite" Continue Reading

Melody Carlson: A Quilt for Christmas

Community, Quilts, & Christmas Love: What More Could You Want?

Last month I had a lovely chat with Melody Carlson about her latest release, A Quilt for Christmas, and oh boy did we have fun. According to her husband, she's written over three hundred books, she has a movie out there and another couple on the way, and oh... every genre from Biblical fiction to Continue Reading

When the Arrogance of Man Meets the Goodness of God?

I never knew how much I talked about my mistakes and misunderstandings until I had to write this post and realized I've shared most of the ones (if not all) that are remotely interesting. Let's face it. I've got an unbelievable talent for blowing it. Case in point: I didn't get this post finished Continue Reading

Terrie Todd Lilly's Promise

Like It or Not, Yesterday Still Has a Significant Impact on Today

My favorite book of 2020 was from a previously unknown to me author, Terrie Todd. That book? Bleak Landing. Since listening to the audiobook for that one, I went on to read several others by her including one of this year's favorites, Rose Among Thornes. And now, surprise, surprise, another of her Continue Reading

If You Loved Rain, Whirlwind Might Blow It Out of the Water

Remember 2020?  No not for that reason. I'm talking to Christian fiction readers here.  You couldn't blink without seeing a cover--one specific cover--and hearing people rave about the book. Rain by Dana McNeely. Yeah, I was one of those people, and I kept ignoring it. Why? Because I'm an idiot, Continue Reading

Waiting on the Tides

What Do Love, Forgiveness, and Trust Have to Do with a Good Book?

My dad was probably drunk the night he said the worst things anyone has ever said to me. I can still hear the guttural growl as he spewed horrible accusations on a girl who had made a foolish, new mom mistake. Truth is, I hadn't known any better, Challice was fine (thanks to the Lord's mercy), and Continue Reading

Kristen Hogrefe Parnell

Crossroads Suspense kicks off December 5, 2022, with Take My Hand. Listen in and see why her premise hooked me at the word "mafia." Note: links Continue Reading

Andy Dewitt Gates of Hell

Watch Out! This Book Will Send You on a Wild Ride through Palestine!

When I saw the title... The Gates of Hell, I had an image of what the cover would look like. Dark... ominous... and a whole lot of red. Well, I was partially right and pleasantly surprised. I mean, this cover is unique, appears to be spot on, and yet unexpected, too. I like that combination. Then Continue Reading

Reposted from @courtneywalsh MY PHONY VALENTINE is Reposted from @courtneywalsh MY PHONY VALENTINE is officially available in e-book, paperback and in #kindleunlimited ♥️♥️

Treat yourself to this swoony, sweet romance! 

ABOUT THE BOOK:

A chance meeting. A hunky hockey player. A fake romance.
Hardly an ordinary day in the life of Poppy Hart.

My days usually consist of agonizing over my failing restaurant, worrying about my mountain of debt and nursing my broken heart.

Everything changes when I bump into a man in the coffee shop and claim him as my new boyfriend. To my absolute horror, he turns out to be hockey’s most renowned bad boy, Dallas Burke. To my absolute delight, he goes along with my story.

When his no-nonsense manager and meddling grandmother jump in the picture, they see a win-win solution for my failing restaurant and Dallas’s less-than-stellar reputation.

A full-fledged fake romance complete with contract negotiations, pretend dates and phony PDA.

But as I get to know the real Dallas Burke, who is not the man the press says he is, it becomes clear that if this isn’t real. . . someone better tell it to my heart.

Heath Karras has a problem. Lots of eager first da Heath Karras has a problem. Lots of eager first dates... no second dates. With his propensity to spout random (and often bizarre) animal facts while nervous (he's always nervous around women) it's no wonder. 
His sister has a solution--lots of dates. Great, heaping gobs of them. Go ahead. Be awkward. Get used to it. Then... then try with someone you really want to get to know. He's not so confident, but when a man gives his word... (Note to self: no more agreeing to Selby's plans without knowing what they are!)
Find out what happens in Random Acts (or is it Facts?) of Shyness.

This book just got a fresh makeover, thanks to the genius of @PlethoraCreative & @PerryElizabeth.
