Using story to connect YOU to the Master Storyteller

Join Us for an Exciting Christmas Scavenger Hunt

by Chautona Havig · 5 Comments

We have an exciting Christmas Scavenger Hunt for you! Excellent prizes, lots of fun, and all bookish fun! Stop in and follow the links! via @chautonahavig

NOTE: This doesn’t begin until December 6, 2020 at 6:00 Eastern. Until then, many links won’t work.

Merry Christmas! It’s my turn on in this Christmas Round-Robin! Don’t forget, each author asks a question at each blog stop. You will find the answers to these questions by checking out the free Amazon preview of their book. Provide the answer at this Google Form.

Note: You must answer a question from each author in the round-robin to be considered to win one of the three generous Amazon gift cards. At the end of my post, you’ll find a link to the next blog. Each blog contains a link to the next for ease of following.

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

Christmas on Breakers PointMy book, Christmas on Breakers Point, wasn’t supposed to be more than a quick story to introduce readers to the (then) upcoming Independence Islands Series.  We just wanted a nice book to tide (pun intended) people over until July when the first book would release.

Mallory Barrows, my main character in the series, would have none of that. She had a story to tell and insisted I do it justice. I’ll be honest, I don’t know if anyone but the Lord could do that story justice, but I did my best. Covering love, loss, and total dependence on the Lord contrasted with disillusionment with the church and personal faith, Christmas on Breakers Point will touch your heart as all Christmas stories should, but it’ll also challenge your faith.

Isn’t that what Christmas is all about, though?

Uncle Bud has become not only my favorite character I’ve ever written but many of my readers’ as well. Able to use a dozen different endearments in half as many minutes, I’m sure you’ll love him as much as I do.

Even better, Christmas on Breakers Point is now available on audiobook from any of your favorite retailers–Kobo, Nook, Scribd, Apple Books, Google Play, Audible, and more!

Let’s begin this scavenger hunt! Go to Christmas on Breakers Point on Amazon at this link and find out what Uncle Bud calls his impending death.

Thank you so much for visiting!

The next author on the tour is Jaycee Weaver, and I know you’ll love learning about her Christmas book Five Gold Rings. You can find it at this link. Remember that the round-robin will end on December 13th at 11:59 PM EST!

Taking the pulse of Christian fiction

Episode 572: A Chat with Kari Trumbo
byChautona Havig

Mystery is my absolute favorite genre, so when I heard that Kari Trumbo had taken her Wayside Ranch and spun it off into a mystery series, you know I was excited. Kari? Plus mystery? Listen in and hear why Beneath Still Waters is next on my “must read” list!

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

Okay… mystery that isn’t focused on romance? That’s like this book was tailor-made for me! EEEP!

I love what Kari is doing with this series and now this spin-off. This is gonna be great!

Beneath Still Waters by Kari Trumbo

Fresh out of training and still haunted by a near-fatal shootout, Ferd Kincade retreats to Wayside Ranch to heal.

She expects quiet. Instead, she finds a body. When she discovers a mysterious boat washed ashore on a nearby lake, nothing about the scene makes sense and Ferd can’t walk away. Pulling Piper’s Ridge detective Duke Campose into the investigation, she soon uncovers signs of something far more dangerous than a simple murder.

Someone is hiding a deadly secret.

And they’re willing to kill again to keep it buried.

As the truth points to a ruthless drug operation, Ferd becomes the next target. Now, she’ll need every ounce of her training, and a lot of faith, to survive long enough to bring a killer to justice.

Don’t miss the giveaway that ends September 7th. Books will be shipped to US addresses, but feel free to enter from anywhere and have the book sent to a friend! No purchase necessary! Just click HERE to enter.

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

Judah Hensley knows three underacknowledged things Judah Hensley knows three underacknowledged things. 1. Alpacas are gross. 2. Family is complicated. 3. Faith is even worse. He might have to spend his summer hawking devotionals and enduring yet another, "Have a blessed day," but he'll survive by driving his coworker crazy and trying not to annoy his parents. Much.
Panda Marie knew working with Judah would be awful, but finding out he's lost his faith? Now what?
One old bookstore, one new location, one last summer to survive and then they all get a new start on life. Question is, will it really be better?

Nothing says true love like a mutual admiration of Nothing says true love like a mutual admiration of books, right? Nine authors, nine stories, more matches than we may ever know. My contribution to the anthology is Turnabout Is Fair Match. One good thing came out of the trauma in Dying to Read: Olemann's Books now has a reputation for having "matchmaking" book clubs. And that's something Imogen Stokes is very interested in--not for herself, of course. She has a grandson to match up, and Olemann's is the place to get it done.

Can the small town of Berne support two bookstores Can the small town of Berne support two bookstores? Of course, not. Does that stop Anne Montgomery from opening one practically next door to the other one? It does not. Their friendship may be dead, but nothing will stop her from running her dream bookstore. And... she got the prime location. It's perfect!
Except it isn't. If something doesn't change, she'll flop faster than this year's over-hyped novel. After much pleading (and some interfering), Milton and his trusty parrotlet, Atticus (not Finch) arrive to help.
Book two in the Bookstrings series (aside from the two prequel novellas), Clock Tower Bound is available in print, on Kindle (and Kindle Unlimited), and coming soon to audiobook (and @ChristaDelSorbo's) YouTube Channel (where you can listen free!).
