COOKIE SWAP: Sheila A. Lipsey

Holiday Wishes To The Readers,

To everyone who takes the time to support your favorite author(s), I wish you a blessed and joyous Christmas and New Year. There is so much for us to be thankful for and you, our readers, should know that without your support, your encouragement, your reviews, your purchases, we would not be able to be successful in this vast literary arena. As the new year rapidly approaches, I extend my thanks to you in advance for any and everything you decide to do to help me in the upcoming year. May your families and loved ones be blessed abundantly and may all of your dreams come into full fruition!

Into Each Life

Raised in the church, best friends Prodigal and Teary learn at an early age that having faith in God is easier said than done. An intriguing story about the value of friendship, the strength of love, and the struggle with keeping the faith in the midst of hurt, temptation and disappointment.
