Using story to connect YOU to the Master Storyteller

Wondering where to start?  (note: this page is randomly updated. If you see something is missing, drop me a line and I’ll be happy to update. I just forget!)

So many of my books are very thoroughly interconnected.  Anything listed under the “Rockland Chronicles” is likely to have familiar characters appear all over the place!  So, if you wondered what order to read them, here you go!  Now, this is just a suggestion.  The only books that NEED to be read in a particular order are listed as their own series.  For example, Aggie’s Inheritance as a series can be read in any order, but the books in the series need to be read sequentially.  Clear as political candidates on debate night?  Good!  Then let’s get started.  *cough*

Rockland Chronicles Timeline One- Intact series (books with asterisks are not yet in print)

Not a Word (Technically, this book both comes after and before the Aggie Series. So… I put it here.)
The Hartfield Mysteries
Blessing Bentley
Noble Pursuits
The Sight Unseen Series (None So Blind etc.)

Discovering Hope
Argosy Junction (Eventually, this will have a sequel which obviously would be next)
Speak Now (Might prefer to read before Advent but not essential.  Tiny spoiler in it but not much of one…)
Advent
Aggie’s Inheritance Series (From the second half of Ready or Not, this follows the same timeline as Past Forward. Ante Up! takes place concurrent with Volume 6)
Past Forward (Takes place on exactly the same timeline as the second half of the first book through the rest of Aggie. It is also concurrent with Front Window)
Diary of a De-cluttering Junkie (Takes place in conjunction with Past Forward 4)
Thirty Days Hath… (Is parallel in one chapter to a section in Volume 3 of Past Forward)
Tarnished Silver
31 Kisses
Operation Posthaste
(no distinct timeline placement)
A Bird Died

Justified Means (Must follow Thirty Days Hath…)
Mismatched (Must follow Justified Means)
Effective Immediately (Must follow Mismatched)
A Forgotten Truth (Must follow Effective Immediately)
Corner Booth
Merri’s Christmas Mission

HearthLand  (Takes place after the last Past Forward–sister series to Past Forward)
The Matchmakers of Holly Circle 
(concurrent with Volumes 1  and 2 of HearthLand)

Taking the pulse of Christian fiction

Episode 595: A Chat with Jeremiah Friedli
byChautona Havig

Have you ever had to choose between saving one life or twenty? Fifty? Listen in as Jeremiah Friedli and I chat about his Core Decipher and whether his character Seth should save one life at a time or if he risks his life to save many.

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

This Core series is so timely–with the way surveillance becomes more intrusive every day, ummmm. Yeah.

Core Decipher by Jeremiah Friedli

One hacker. One impossible mission. Zero margin for error.

Seth Alvarez has the ultimate power in a surveillance state: cyber invisibility. Using stolen tech that makes him a ghost to the all-seeing CORE system, he’s the resistance’s most valuable protector. But when CORE prepares a deadly upgrade that will crush all hope of freedom, Seth must make an impossible choice: stay hidden and keep saving lives one at a time, or risk everything by going undercover inside CORE’s fortress for a chance to liberate thousands. Allying with a former enemy, Seth must pull off the most dangerous hack in history—one that will either liberate an entire nation or destroy everyone he loves.

Learn more about Jeremiah on his WEBSITE and follow him on GoodReads.
