Series: Smoky Mountains #12
Author: Lin Stepp
Publisher: Mountain Hill Press
Genre: Inspirational Contemporary Romance
Release Date: April 2, 2019
In this gentle, inspirational romance, Lin Stepp reveals the healing touch
and deep peace the beauty of the Smoky Mountains can bring to a hurt and
troubled heart.
Too much work, too much pressure, and too much heartache can lead even a
strong young woman like Mallory Wingate to the edge of a nervous breakdown. Now
her doctor and employer have insisted she take a space to heal and rest—so like
it or not, she’s heading to her grandparents’ resort in the Smoky Mountains.
Hoping to sleep and rest on the flight home, Mallory is entertained instead by
an unexpectedly charismatic stranger, making her forget many of her problems
and even making her feel deliciously female again.
Lucas James, flying home from a pro golfing event, hadn’t expected to enjoy
an interlude of flirting with a pretty stranger on the plane. A stranger he
never expected to see again but who turns out to be the granddaughter of his
boss at The Millhouse Resort. Worse, he quickly learns she’s passed through a
recent history of emotional problems that remind him all too painfully of his
past wife. The last thing Lucas wants is to get involved with anyone like
Cecily again. Surely it won’t be too hard to keep his distance while Mallory is
at the resort.
Title: Claire at Edisto

Author: Lin Stepp
Publisher: Mountain Hill Press
Genre: Inspirational Contemporary Romance
Release Date: April 2, 2019
Series: Edisto Trilogy #1
Author: Lin Stepp
Publisher: Mountain Hill Press
Genre: Inspirational Contemporary Romance
Release Date: April 2, 2019
Set against the alluring backdrop of coastal South Carolina, CLAIRE AT
EDISTO takes the reader on a sweet and gentle journey showing that love and new
beginnings can often bloom from the deepest sorrows.
Standing in grief and shock at the grave of her young husband, Claire Avery
wonders what she and her young daughters will do now. They live in the church
parsonage they need to vacate. She hasn’t worked since her marriage twelve
years ago. Old issues and complications hinder relationships with her family.
Struggling for answers, Claire accepts her brother-in-law’s offer to stay at
his beach house at Edisto to give her a season to heal and think. But even the
peace and beauty of the coastal island bring new problems along with unexpected
joys as Claire seeks to find her way.
Parker Avery always promised his brother Charles he would look after Claire
if anything happened to him. Charles stood by him three years ago when his wife
Ann died and Parker is determined now to be a help to Claire and the girls. As
time passes, instead of feeling like a hero, he feels like a heel instead as he
realizes he’s developing feelings for his own brother’s widow. To make things
worse, he watches with pain and jealousy as Miles Lawrence waltzes into
Claire’s life. What can he expect though? It hardly seems right that Claire,
even after a season of mourning, would ever fall in love with her own
brother-in-law.
