Beloved Readers,

Who doesn’t love autumn? Here in Georgia, we are feeling a bit of chill and crispness in the morning air (even though the afternoons are up to eighty degrees), and we’re seeing pumpkins everywhere.

Fall also means book releases! As many of you know, I recently released the third and final book in my Amish of Summer Grove series, titled Gathering the Threads.

And, TODAY, on October 10, my first non-Amish book is released. It’s a Christmas novella and Southern romance, set in beautiful Asheville, North Carolina. Escaping to the Appalachian Mountains and Blue Ridge Parkway is a great fall trip, don’t you agree?

The Gift of Christmas Past is my first book available on Amazon’s Kindle Unlimited for e-books. If you are a subscriber, you can read it for free with your subscription. If you have never tried the service, you can sign up for a thirty-day free trial and read the e-book for no cost! Here’s some info on Kindle Unlimited.

The Gift of Christmas Past will also be for sale in paperback at Lifeway stores, Christian indie stores, and online. The paperback is priced lower than my usual Christmas novellas, and would make for a great read under a cozy blanket.
