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.

Episode 563: A Chat with Stephanie Mack
byChautona Havig

I always love a “What if?” story, and when I chatted with Stephanie Mack about her Twenty Something Else, I knew this would be an amazing one. Listen in and see what it’s all about.

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

Stephanie Mack sure seems to have a fun, unique voice, and I can’t wait to read all the books!

Twenty Something Else by Stephanie Mack

Sutton Layne is almost-forty and fabulous, with a happy marriage, three beautiful children, and a successful interior design business. But there’s plenty of chaos behind the scenes of early midlife. Her preteen son is going off the rails, her husband is bailing on the party he was supposed to throw her, and that thriving business? If she can’t land her next big client, it might all come crashing down. Then a surprise DM from someone in her past sends her spiraling into what-ifs. What if she settled down too young? Walked away from her big break? Never had her great adventure?

Despite her simmering mini-crisis, Sutton can’t wait for the birthday luncheon and pickleball tournament her friends have planned in her honor. But when an accident on the court knocks her out cold, she wakes up somewhere else . . . and is offered the chance to do it all over again. She can revisit her twenties―out of order and on her own terms. And this time around, anything goes: cities, careers, friendships. Even love.

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

Okay, so maybe her conclusions about how we glorify God might be a bit extreme, but no one can argue that it worked out well for her. Proposing to a guy she's not in love with (yet!)?
