Using story to connect YOU to the Master Storyteller

What Happens When Tinseltown Tugs at Your Heart

by Chautona Havig · 3 Comments

I asked Lynnette to tell us a bit about her “Hollywood Stars.”

Check out what she said!

What Happens When Tinseltown Tugs at Your Heart

Lynnette has a wonderful story for us, so let’s get to know a little more about it and her, shall we?

How did you come up with the title Kittens and Snow Flurries for your book?

My titles always stem from something in the book. Let’s just say that a cute kitten named Star has a hand in leading my heroine to realize that God is real and that He loves her. Just like a different star long, long ago led some wise men to the King of Kings.

Who is your favorite supporting character in Kittens and Snow Flurries and why?

I always love revisiting characters who were the main characters in past books. That’s why I’ll have to go with Havyn and Chelsea as favorite secondary characters. It was nice to visit with them again. 🙂

If you created a musical for this novella and had to use just one known Christmas song or carol for its theme, what would that be and why?

I think it would have to be We Three Kings because of the chorus about the star of wonder, star of might, star of royal beauty bright…guide us to thy perfect light. That’s the whole theme of my book, right there.

The theme of the collection is wishes—What is your wish for this book in the lives of your readers?

[clickToTweet tweet=”My prayer for my books is always that they portray the message that God wants fellowship with us. ” quote=”My prayer for my books is always that they portray the message that God wants fellowship with us. “]If my readers walk away uplifted and wanting a closer relationship with God, then my fondest wish is fulfilled. I truly believe He is the answer for every problem we face!

Not a Sparrow Falls Now that this novella is done, what will you be working on?

Next on my list is the second book in my historical series, Wyldhaven. Book one is Not a Sparrow Falls. And this one will be titled On Eagles’ Wings. I’m already loving some of the secondary characters and can’t wait to delve more into their lives in future books. Doc and Dixie are such fun characters to spend time with. I’m enjoying their story immensely.

On Eagles' Wings-BonnerWell, I hope that got you excited for Lynnette’s novella!

Episode 480: A Chat with Tracie Peterson
byChautona Havig

 A chat with Tracie Peterson is always a treat, and this was no exception. Listen in as we talk about A Moment to Love, the last in the Hope of Cheyenne series. 

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

I’ve been loving what Tracie is doing in this Cheyene series, but something about this book really hit home. I think the themes of revenge for heinous crimes and the indignity of our work being stolen are things we relate to whether it’s the 19th or the 21st century.

Also, don’t miss out on her Christmas novella collection with Karen Witemeyer and Misty M. Beller, On a Midnight Clear. 

A Moment to Love  by Tracie Peterson

A shared heart for justice pulls them together, but is their love strong enough to survive their trials? Dr. Carrie Vogel’s heart is shattered when her groundbreaking medical research is stolen and falsely credited to her ex-fiancé. With years of diligent work lost, she grapples with the disastrous turn of her career and leans on her faith for strength. When she learns that her Pinkerton friend Spencer Duval is on a justice-driven mission to her hometown of Cheyenne, she agrees to an arranged marriage to provide him with a cover story. But merely pretending to be in love with Spencer becomes increasingly difficult the more time she spends with him. Spencer is determined to apprehend the ruthless murderer who killed his father years ago, but his quest ignites unexpected emotions–both for Carrie and about the desire for revenge that has dominated his life. As the web of suspects tightens, their futures hang in the balance, and they must learn to trust God’s plan as unexpected love takes flight. Return to Cheyenne, Wyoming, with bestselling author Tracie Peterson for a journey of healing and forgiveness in this exquisite western frontier romance that will appeal to readers of faith-filled stories and When Calls the Heart.

Don’t forget that you can get this and her other books at 30-40% off with FREE US shipping from Bakerbookhouse.com

Sometimes, I fall in love with a character in my b Sometimes, I fall in love with a character in my books. Someone like Lewis in The Lights of New Cheltenham or Rory in Not a Word. But... in Twice Sold Tales, I fell in love with a cast of characters.  Harper the store owner, Noah the single-dad just learning how to be one, Bennie, the adorable ballet-loving little boy... and Mrs. Klair. Oh, how I loved Mrs. Klair.
I also love the town of Red Wing, Minnesota.  I infused as much of it as I could into the book--places to eat and explore, people I love dearly (family!), and the feel of a small town inside a modest city along Lake Pepin (of Laura Ingalls fame). I also learned that there is actually a lake monster there!  Pepi!  You wont want to miss him!

The I finished the first Reen and Joanie mysyery by @kdibianca . So much fun. I loved that she showed how things kids might think they'd never need can be useful... even to kids. So much fun.
