| | Wow, I haven't been by Xanga in so long. Sorry, old friend.
The first book in the fictional series with Sara Evans comes out this September. It's been a fun process working with her, taking her ideas and melding them with mine to make a great story.
Here's what Publishers Weekly said,
"In this heartwarming collaborative debut from country music star Evans and Christian romance veteran Hauck (Sweet Caroline), antique dealer Jade Freedom Fitzgerald of Whisper Hollow, Tenn., must make peace with her hippy mama, Beryl Hill, before she can marry her lawyer fiancé, Maxwell Charles Benson. But wait, there's more: she also needs an annulment from an elopement at 16, to resolve her anger at the father who abandoned her, to learn how to get along with a pushy mom-in-law-to-be and take responsibility for a dire choice she made 13 years before. The arrival of Jade's mother and her tempestuous little sister, Willow, before the big day shakes things up further, especially after Beryl reveals an unhappy secret of her own. Comforting in that Southern way and inspirational without being too saccharine, Evans and Hauck's first outing together shows promise."
Nice review, but I sense some sarcasm from the reviewer. Don't you? What is meant by, "but wait there's more." Sounds like a Ginsu knife commercial, "It slices and dices, but wait, there's more. It saws through brick and steel." :)
The Sweet By and By is a great book. I am excited for it to get out to readers, and the second book is even more exciting.
Sara's new album comes out this fall too, and her first single, "Feels Just like a Love Song" is fantastic. It's going to be a number one hit and my prediction? It'll be used in a romantic comedy! :)
Have a great summer. Read a lot. Pray more. |
