ABOUT THE BOOK

Hope Beyond the Waves

Title: Hope Beyond the Waves 
Author: Heidi Chiavaroli
Publisher: Hope Creek Publishers, LLC
Release Date: June 28, 2022
Genre: Christian, Dual Timeline Fiction

From award-winning author Heidi Chiavaroli comes a sweeping dual timeline story that explores hope and enduring love in the midst of the impossible. 

Massachusetts, 1993 

After making a grievous mistake that will change her life forever, Emily Robertson is sent away to live with her grandmother on Cape Cod. When Emily finds a timeworn photograph buried in a drawer, she realizes her grandmother has concealed a secret even bigger than her own. Will convincing Gram to reveal their family history help Emily make the most important decision of her life or will it prove her parents right—that family scandal is better off buried and forgotten? 

Massachusetts, 1916 

Atta Schaeffer plans to marry the man of her dreams and whisk her little sister away from their abusive father. But when she is diagnosed with a dreaded malady, Atta is forced into a life of exile, leaving her sister in harm’s way. 

On Penikese Island, Atta’s best hope lies with Harry Mayhew, a doctor who seeks a cure for his patients at any cost. But when experiments fail, Atta runs from Harry—and from God. Can she return to her sister before it’s too late? Or will her illness consume both her body and soul? 

A testament to faith and love, Hope Beyond the Waves is the raw account of the journey of two generations of women running from desperate situations toward irresistible hope.

EXCERPT


Osterville, Massachusetts
April, 1993


I stand rigid, arms pinned to my sides as my mother wraps me in a loose hug in Gram’s foyer.

“I’m so glad we thought of this arrangement,” she says.

Arrangement. As if shipping me off and hiding me away is a plan we’d come up with together.

My father kisses me on the forehead, but it’s awkward. Probably a show for my grandmother. He’s kissed plenty of babies on the campaign trail, after all—this is likely no different.

“Be good, Sweet Pea.” He turns to my grandmother, who barely comes up to his armpits. “Keep in touch, Mom. Don’t hesitate to call if…” His gaze flicks to me and he doesn’t finish his sentence.

What? Does he think I’ll find a cute boy in Gram’s retirement village? One who will get me in bigger trouble than Bryan already has?

Review: Kidnapped in Alaska by Beth Carpenter


My rating: 4 stars / I really liked it



Synopsis

From hiking and camping…
to hiding from kidnappers!


Alexis Mahoney is prepared for bears and bad weather on a rafting trip, not kidnappers trying to snatch her niece! Or needing to trust a wilderness recluse to keep them safe. Zeke Soto lives alone, haunted by the past. But when Alexis and Keira stumble upon his cabin, he offers protection—a dangerous move, because someone has no intention of letting the pair get off the mountain…


My Review

I was entertained the entire journey that this book took me on! I loved the wilderness adventure and the independence of Alexis with her capability and determination. Her niece may act like a typical teenager, but she is also quick and smart enough to help her aunt as they escape danger. Zeke is a loner, trying to cope with overwhelming emotions by retreating from society. I admired that he overcame his instincts of self-preservation in order to protect Alexis and Keira. They became a great team and I loved the details about homesteading in Alaska. There was a good balance throughout the book of a quick pace with the action and a slower pace as the character development happened. I always appreciate the thread of faith woven into Love Inspired books that provides hope and healing for the characters and I feel a connection to their values. This is a great read for fans of suspense and an exciting wilderness setting!

Review: The Element of Love by Mary Connealy



My rating: 4 stars / I really liked it



Synopsis

With their sharp engineering minds, Laura Stiles and her two sisters have been able to deal with their mother's unfortunate choice in husband, until they discover his plans to marry each of them off to his lecherous friends. Now they must run away--far and fast--to find better matches to legally claim their portion of their father's lumber dynasty and seize control from their stepfather.

When Laura befriends a mission group heading to serve the poor in California during their escape, she quickly volunteers herself and her sisters to join their efforts. Despite the settlement being in miserable condition, the sisters are excited by the opportunity to put their skills to good use. Laura also sees potential in Caleb, the local minister, to help with gaining her inheritance. But when secrets buried in Caleb's past and in the land around them come to light, it'll take all the smarts the sisters have to keep trouble at bay.


My Review

This series starts with the heart-pounding escape of the three sisters from their gilded cage, and doesn't slow down as they make their way deeper into California, relying on their wits and ingenuity. The voices of these independent young women are familiar as they remind me of previous characters of the author, even though their backgrounds are different. I admired the way they adapted to their rougher circumstances, learning new skills and making new friends along the way. Quick marriage is a frequent theme of the author, and while Laura has an immediate need for a husband, I missed the developing emotion of a relationship. The plot of the complicated dynamics of Caleb's mission to the gold rush families living in poverty, squatting on a local rancher's land, along with the sisters' goal to overthrow their evil stepfather's grasp of their lumber inheritance, definitely took center stage of the book. It was entertaining, but I didn't feel connected to the characters' more tender emotions. The book ended with a good wrap-up of Caleb and Laura's story, but the overall story of the three girls and their mother is only beginning and will continue throughout the series. Definitely should be read in order!

Excerpt

He cast his gaze over to Grace and finally allowed himself to drink in her beauty. She was ethereal. She was beautiful to behold and when she met his gaze and smiled, he felt as if he beheld the most precious treasure he would ever meet. Her expressive hazel eyes, set in a heart-shaped face, was a permanent fixture within his mind. He knew that were he to spend every minute of every day locked upon her face, he would never tire of her. Her smiles delighted him and when he was the cause of one, it was as if he had been gifted the riches of heaven. She was glorious and he hoped to tell her that presently. And when she was out of sorts, he felt the pain within his own chest. He was a besotted fool and none the worse for it that he could tell unless he counted his wandering thoughts.

EXCERPT

 
“Morning, Tucker,” Rider said when he opened her door. “Captain Simms’s wife is already here and has set up the perfect spot for the shoot.” Rider pointed toward the rear of the van. “Animals in the back?”

“Yes. They’re all in crates.”

He opened the back doors then shook his head. “How did you survive the ride with all that noise?”

“Found my happy place.” And one day she’d see Hawaii in person. She loosened Flo and moved back so the dog could exit the van through the driver’s side.

“You know what happiness is?” Rider smirked.

“Hardy har-har.” Jalissa rounded the back to start unloading the animals. “Where am I putting them?”

“Oh, don’t worry about it.” Rider cupped his mouth. “Young, Trent, Barns, come help!”

She wiggled a finger in her eardrum. “I think your voice carries well enough without you shouting.”

“Maybe, but I have no idea where they are in the firehouse. Now you don’t have to carry the animals. Plus, the guys already know where everything is set up.”

“Then I can leave?” She had a load of laundry she could do.

“Oh, no.” He tsked at her. “We need your assistance with the animals.”

Jalissa slowly inched backward but stopped when Flo nudged her. One...two... She could do this. Be near the firehouse for help. She didn’t actually have to go inside, did she? Flo licked her fingertips.

“All right,” Jalissa said slowly. “I’ll just stay out of everyone’s way unless I’m needed.”

“You’ll be needed.” He stared into her eyes.

She blinked slowly. What was going on with her? First thinking Rider was good-looking, and now they were having some kind of moment. She needed to fix this real quick.”

Review: Sunburst by Susan May Warren


My rating: 5 stars / It was amazing



Synopsis

When former Navy SEAL and lifelong bachelor Ranger Kingston is called upon to take part in a rescue mission to save his brother Colt, who has been kidnapped by terrorists in Nigeria, he is shocked to find among the hostages a woman he knows and could never forget.

Noemi Sutton was attempting to return a young girl to her family in Boko Haram territory when she and the girl found themselves taken hostage, along with several others.

And while Ranger Kingston may be able to get the hostages away from their captors, he'll need Noemi's help if he ever hopes to get out of Nigeria alive.

Her solution? Pose as husband and wife. But when her uncle discovers the union, he insists on a traditional Nigerian wedding--binding Noemi to a man destined to break her heart. Worse, she's discovered the real reason she was kidnapped, and anyone around her is bound to be caught in the cross fire. Including her so-called new husband.

She'll need to figure out a way to leave the man she loves if she wants to save his life.

USA Today bestselling author Susan May Warren throws you into the thick of the action in this high-stakes, globe-trotting romance.


My Review

I can always count on this author to take me for quite a ride when I read one of her adventure-suspense books! The setting of Nigeria was fascinating and I loved the things I learned about the people and culture there. The danger felt so real and I can't imagine being in those circumstances. The flashbacks to Ranger and Noemi's first meeting and brief relationship were foundational to understanding their current tension and angst, and their amazing chemistry. I loved how their personalities complemented each other in the best ways. There is also an inspirational thread as both Ranger and Noemi find and strengthen their faith in God and each other. While they were on the run, we have another continuing story in Alaska with the woman rescued from the blizzard and her ties to the Russians. By the end of the book I could start to make out some of the puzzle pieces to the bigger picture and I can't wait for the next book to see how they fit together and especially Colt and Tae's romance!

GUEST POST

From author Pamela Desmond Wright

 
Finding my Inspiration

In Finding Her Amish Home, the reader is introduced to Maddie Baum and her son, Josh. The book opens in an Amish grocery when Abram Mueller and his Gran’pa Amos catch Josh stealing. Having been told no to a treat, the boy has mistaken bars of baker’s chocolate for candy and has stolen a couple of bars. Maddie is mortified and apologizes profusely. This event, seemingly so small, sets off a chain of events that will reveal a terrible secret Maddie has been hiding.

In order not to spoil the book for readers, I won’t give away any details. I will say what a joy this book was to write. The road to publication wasn’t easy. It was my first try at Amish fiction, and I wasn’t sure I could pull it off. In 2012, after years of writing paranormal and contemporary adult romance, I realized that I was no longer happy with the books I was producing. Yes, they were quick and easy to write, but with each new release, I found myself highly unsatisfied with what I had produced. It came to a point where I was unhappy with the career path I’d chosen. So I did what many people told me was crazy. I walked out, leaving contracts unfulfilled and money uncollected.

Nine years passed. I had no desire to write and didn’t miss the pressure of outlines, deadlines, and all the things that go with bringing a book into the world. Still, I wasn’t content. Something was missing from my life, but I didn’t know what.

Quite by accident, I happened upon an article mentioning Amish romance. As I read the article, I found myself fascinated by the Amish culture of faith, family, and devotion to community. Believe it or not, I grew up playing in an authentic log cabin, complete with a wood burning stove. Rescued off the prairie, my grandfather rebuilt the cabin on his property and furnished it with many of the things he and my grandmother had saved from her own childhood, brought across the high plains in a covered wagon from Oklahoma back in the depression days. I loved playing in that cabin and learned to cook on the wood burning stove. Curious to read some of the books, I ordered a stack off eBay. After they arrived, I devoured them. It was then I knew what I had to write.

Sending up a little prayer, I began to work on a story. Once I had enough material, my new agent sent the book around to editors. To my delight, it sold! Suddenly I was a Love Inspired author! Though it took me almost 30 years, I’d achieved my dream of writing for Harlequin.

Going back around to Finding Her Amish Home I hope you’ll want to pick up a copy and discover the secret Maddie’s been keeping…

With love and light,

Pamela

Blog Tour, Excerpt & Giveaway: Far From Home by Mabel Ninan

Far From Home JustRead Blog Tour 

Welcome to the Blog Tour for Far From Home by Mabel Ninan, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!

 

ABOUT THE BOOK

 

 

Title: Far From Home 
Author: Mabel Ninan 
Publisher: Iron Stream 
Release Date: July 12, 2022 
Genre: Christian / Non-Fiction / Spiritual Growth

Explore the intersection between culture, identity, and faith in this new release from an earthly immigrant who gained a spiritual perspective.

What is my purpose? Why do I exist? A sense of self and belonging are two questions many of us struggle to answer. 

 And what if you are a foreigner in another land? 

 How does one adjust to a new culture? Discover their place in a new society?

 For Mabel Ninan, born and raised in India and an immigrant in America shortly after marriage, the search for those answers sent her on a journey that led to an unexpected and exciting discovery. 

 God revealed she was not only an earthly immigrant but also a spiritual one, created with a unique calling to impact His kingdom. Mabel’s renewed perspective imbued her with joy and hope, urging her to share the message with others. 

 Drawing from her personal experiences and by examining the lives of biblical heroes, Mabel sheds light on what it means to live as a citizen of Heaven on earth. Far from Home will inspire you to: 

 • Embrace your identity as a foreigner on earth. 

 • Make your home with God. 

 • Find community and common purpose with fellow sojourners.

PURCHASE LINKS*: Goodreads | Amazon | Barnes & Noble | BookDepository | IndieBound | Christianbook

 

EXCERPT


Paul reminds us that “this world in its present form is passing away” (1 Corinthians 7:31), and that “outwardly we [too] are wasting away” (2 Corinthians 4:16). Our relationship with God and our future with Him, however, are certain and long-lasting. So then let us not get caught up in worldly affairs, and let us not give our physical bodies and earthly homes undue importance. We can ask God to “teach us to number our days” (Psalm 90:12) so we can live wisely between mortality and immortality with the blessed hope of heaven bubbling over from our hearts.

Our immigrant identity reminds us that we are simply passing through and that each step on this journey is taking us closer to our eternal home. Our God-given heavenly citizenship informs us of the connectedness between our testimony on earth and our glory in heaven. What a privilege it is to know that our actions on earth can be worthy of treasures in heaven! What a joy in knowing that mere humans like us can participate in God’s plans on earth and make our home with Him in the heavenly realms!
