Are You Eager for This Thrilling, Suspenseful New Series?

I know I am. Look, I wanted to know more about the book, yes. I mean, Alaska? Suspense?  Bring it on. Especially say in… oh…JULY. That’s when I like to read about Alaska!  However, if you like atmospheric reads for the season you’re in, Cold Light of Day is a perfect read for February!  All the chilly feels!  Grab a cup of something hot and a cozy blanket and settle into the fictional town of Shadow Gap, Alaska.

Look, I’m in love with this place, okay?  Who wouldn’t be? It has a diner called the… What? Silly Moose? Sleepy Moose?  Crazy Moose?  Or something like that? And there’s a bar… the Rabid Racoon!  I mean, come on! I don’t frequent bars, but if this town existed and I happened to go there, I’d step inside just so I could say I did. #BecauseCoolName.

Elizabeth got the series name from a podcast she listened to (Missing in Alaska… never heard of it, but now I’m curious!), and Revell has even set up a whole WEBSITE for it.  There you can find a great preorder deal on Cold Light of Day from Baker Book House (or order from Amazon!) and submit your order number for cool freebies like digital wallpapers, gift tags, and STICKERS! Actual stickers! How cool is that? I need to go get mine!) Oh… one more thing. At the 40% off with free shipping, that makes the paperback cheaper than the eBook. Just sayin’!

Cold Light of Day GoddardCold Light of Day by Elizabeth Goddard

Police Chief Autumn Long is fighting to keep her job in the quiet Alaska town of Shadow Gap when an unexpected string of criminal activity leaves her with a wounded officer, unexplained murders, and even an attack on her own father. Despite her mistrust of outsiders, she turns to Grier Brenner, a newcomer who seems to have the skills and training Autumn needs to face this threat to her community.

Grier is in Alaska for the same reason so many others are–to disappear–when Chief Long enlists his help. He emerges from the shadows and proves his mettle, but his presence in her life could be a deadly trap for them both. If his secret is exposed, all will be lost. And he’s not sure even Autumn could save him.

As the stakes rise and the dangers increase, Autumn and Grier must rely on each other to extinguish the deadly threats.

Taking the pulse of Christian fiction

Episode 543: A Chat with Stephanie Cardel
byChautona Havig

I love it when YA deals with real issues kids face, so I was crazy excited to hear about Stephanie Cardel’s This Isn’t Shakespeare. From what direction her life should go to peer pressure of various kinds, Cardel weaves a story that I feel is important. Listen in and learn why.

This Isn’t Shakespeare by Stephanie Cardel

To be or not to be…a professional dancer. Seventeen-year-old Madison is a hopeless romantic who loves quoting Shakespeare and dreams of becoming a professional ballet dancer—a dream she hides, afraid of disappointing her mom and her boyfriend. But when her dreams fall apart, she believes it’s a sign from God that she should commit to her boyfriend and make a new dream. When she realizes God wouldn’t give her a sign that points her to sin, the happily-ever-after she’s planned crumbles. Now Madison must confront the lies she’s told herself and all the red flags she’s ignored. In the process, she begins to understand that seeking God’s will may not lead to a perfectly scripted ending—but it might just lead to something real.

Learn more on Stephanie’s WEBSITE and follow on GoodReads and BookBub.

Clearly,  he wasn't talking about me, considering the whole patience being a virtue thing.
