From Short Story to Christmas Novel

My new Christmas novel is available for preorder at the special introductory price of .99 cents, and I’m so excited to share its history and powerful story!

About the Origin

It began when I visited a charming bookstore with three Christmas lanterns on display. They were so beautiful nestled among book stacks that I photographed the lanterns, and later wrote a story about them. Bestselling Author Jerry B. Jenkins selected it as a short story contest winner! This inspired me to continue the tale in a powerful holiday novel about motherhood, sisterhood, friendship, and faith.

About the Story

When Joy Harrison learns her twin sister received the blessing she desperately wanted, their unbreakable bond begins to strain. In their parents’ small-town bookstore, legendary Christmas lanterns bring miracles to visitors in need of hope. Yet they seem to overlook Joy. As century-old secrets surface, the lanterns may now illuminate her own path forward—but how? When what she wants is beyond the bounds of possibility.

Preorder Meadowville’s Lanterns of Joy and Hope while it’s only 99¢. Exclusively on Amazon.

Paperback coming soon!
