Drawing from years of ministering to youth and to women and from her own parenting experience, Rhonda provides refreshingly relevant guidance, biblical and contemporary examples, and humorous insights to help each listener discover how to guide a son without hovering and smothering; how every action and choice can serve a godly goal; ways to communicate so a boy will listen and be heard; and God's power and grace to become-and give-her best.

 The Discipline of Discipline

The effective, godly discipline of your son will require that you discipline yourself first. To train your son well, you must commit to lay aside distractions in your own life that will steal away the precious time you need to build a foundation for your son’s heart.

When you take the time to teach your son self-control and respectful obedience, you give him a truly wonderful gift. Not only will people likely be drawn to his well-mannered, obedient demeanor, but more importantly, you will cultivate within your son a heart prepared to submit to God’s authority. And all the sacrifices you make on his behalf will be repaid abundantly as you see your son grow into a man who has the wisdom to make wise choices and pursue godliness in his life.

I thought of all the Lord had brought me through.  All that He had done for me.  All the pain I had endured, and all the blessings received.  All the times I had cried out to God, and how He had given me comfort, answered prayers, and given me the desires of my heart.

All to bring me here, to this spot; at this moment.  The peace and pleasure of knowing I was in His perfect will.

Book Tour, Excerpt & Giveaway: The Hotel by Pamela Kelley

On Tour with Prism Book Tours

The Hotel

By Pamela Kelley

Women's Fiction, Romance

Paperback & ebook, 270  Pages

June 8, 2021 by Piping Plover Press

Secrets and lies...at Nantucket's most exclusive and glamorous, family-owned hotel.

The Whitley is Nantucket's most exclusive waterfront hotel--a sprawling collection of pristine white cottages and an elegant main building on a long stretch of private, white sandy beach.

It's a family owned business--brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts, all work there in various capacities.

Paula is happy in her back office accounting position. But changes are in store when her grandfather promotes her and fires her cousin--who then blames Paula.

Meanwhile, a blond romantic comedy superstar is hiding out at The Hotel for a few months. She meets Paula's brother, a chef--who has no idea who she is--and she likes it that way.

Paula's grandfather also hires a consultant to help her settle into her new role. But she isn't sure what to think of David, who grew up on Nantucket but now lives in Manhattan.

He's a brilliant consultant and will be assessing Paula's suitability for the role. He's also home for another reason, a difficult family issue that makes Manhattan seem very far away.

A new family saga from the Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestseller author of The Nantucket Inn and The Restaurant.

EXCERPT

“What happened?” The news was so unexpected. Andrea had been in the role for nine years. Paula and just about everyone, especially Andrea, assumed she’d be there forever.

“Lots of little things that added up to a problem that can’t be fixed. It’s who she is.” He told Paula about the complaints from employees that had come in over the years. How he’d given her so many chances to change, and to do better.

“She’s only gotten worse. And it’s impacting the business in a negative way. Cassie came in yesterday morning and resigned and that was it, the last straw.”

“Cassie quit?” Cassie had worked for The Whitley for close to twenty years. Everyone loved her. She had started as a server, then grew to service manager of the restaurant, and to director of catering. She oversaw all meetings and events.

“She tried to quit. I finally got her to admit that the reason was Andrea. She took a job in Boston, because of course there’s no other comparative job here on Nantucket. But she was miserable about leaving.  She said it was the hardest decision she’d over made, but she felt like she had no choice.”

“Because of Andrea. How awful,” Paula said.

“Unacceptable is what it is.” Her grandfather looked stern and disappointed at the same time. “I asked her to please reconsider and I promised that she wouldn’t have to worry about Andrea anymore. She was hesitant, but once I assured her that she would have no interaction with Andrea at all, she agreed to stay.”

“She loves Nantucket. I can’t see her being happy in Boston,” Paula said.

“And she does a fabulous job here. I didn’t want to lose her.”

“How did Andrea take it?”
