Summer Reading List

Summer Reading List

Need some hot reads for your beach bag?

It’s that time of year to bask in the sun and lose yourself in a great story…and have I got a list of great stories for you! The ACFW Carol Award finalist list just came out this week, and guess what? Three—count em!—THREE of my critique buddies made the cut. I’m so doggone proud of Lisa Ludwig, Ane Mulligan and Chawna Schroeder. Naturally, I recommend you read their titles first;)
