Come Explore Beech Mountain, the Setting in Crossroads Suspense
Each book in my Crossroads Suspense series takes my lead characters to at least two settings, one of which is Beech Mountain, North Carolina. This location is close to my heart, as my now-husband taught me to ski there and proposed at a nearby vista called Wiseman’s View. This setting remains one of our favorite family travel spots. Let me share some pictures so you’ll understand why I love this location—in real life and fiction. Beautiful Mountain Vistas How can you not fall in love with views like these? I suppose it helps that my husband’s and my own romance (from dating to engaged to now married) involved trips here.…

Happy Release Day to Watch Your Back, Crossroads Suspense, Book 3
I have run only one half-marathon in my life, and today feels a bit like reaching the finish line. After months of training and more miles run than I care to count, I ran those 13.1 miles and crossed the finish line with a smile on my face. Writing and preparing to release Watch Your Back has felt like a marathon. My son was only a year old when my manuscript deadline for my publisher, Mountain Brook Ink, arrived, and he skipped more naps and got sick more often than I’d imagined possible. I honestly didn’t know if I’d make that deadline, but I did, thanks to my supportive husband…

Ahoti: Book Review and Giveaway
Anything you read by Eva Marie Everson is sure to leave a lasting impression, and Ahoti: A Story of Tamar, which she co-authored with Miriam Feinberg Vamosh, is no different. When I first heard about this project, I was intrigued and excited. Like many of you, I am familiar with the tragic story of Tamar in the Bible: violated by her half-brother and said to live desolate in her brother’s house afterward. However, the historical research done by this author duo paint an alternate ending. Through biblical fiction, they weave a story of hope and redemption for this biblical heroine. I loved the ending to this story, which is where…

Raising Kids to Follow Christ: Book Review & Giveaway
As the mom of a toddler, this title immediately caught my eye. Daily, I pray that my young son will come to know the Lord from a young age and walk with Him all the days of his life. This decision will be completely his, but how can I model for him why following Jesus makes all the difference in the world? This is the type of question the author of this book seeks to answer. My Thoughts on Raising Kids to Follow Christ Lee Ann Manini grabbed my attention from the start with this visual: Imagine being in heaven looking for your kids and not finding them there. What…
