Before I Wake – Dee Henderson

The huge Dee Henderson fan that I am, I looked forward to the release of “Before I Wake” most anxiously and have been reading it every night before bed for the last week. Rae Gabriella was a police officer before she joined the FBI. Bruce Chapel, her boyfriend, was sad to see her move to Washington DC in the course of her work, but he knew it would be good for her career. Eleven years have gone by since then, and Rae has resigned from the FBI due to a case gone terribly wrong. When Bruce contacts her and asks … Continue reading →

Thank you for joining us for our fourth installment of our interview with award-winning inspirational novelist, Leigh Bale. If you missed parts one, two or three, click here to see what we’ve been talking about. Leigh, I was hunting around on your website and found a reference to your very first book, which you describe as being pretty bad. Do you have any plans to polish it up and submit it? Absolutely not! (I’m chuckling here.) That book is so horrible, and would need such massive work, that I might just as well start over completely. But writing that book … Continue reading →

Author Review — Phyllis A. Whitney

While gathering information online about the novel “Spindrift,” which I reviewed a short time ago, I happened upon a fact that nearly made me drop my teeth. The author of that novel, Phyllis A. Whitney, is 103 years old and currently hard at work on her biography. It’s a rare treat to find someone who had reached that advanced age, and even more delightful to discover that they are still able to do the things they have loved doing throughout their lives. I decided then and there to do an author review on this remarkable woman. As I read, I … Continue reading →

In “True Devotion,” the first book of this series, we meet Kelly Jacobs, a young widow of three years whose husband, Nick, was a SEAL. She was told that he died in a training accident and she was given a folded flag to remember him by, but nothing can erase the pain and hurt of his passing. She throws herself into her … Continue reading →

Author Review — Dee Henderson

Dee Henderson is possibly the foremost Christian author currently on the market. With her incredibly suspenseful mysteries, her believable characters and touching religious moments, it’s not hard to see why her readers keep coming back for more. I have reviewed her most popular series, “The O’Malleys,” here on Families.com, and now I’d like to tell you more about the author herself. This proved to be a little bit difficult, as Dee is a very private person. She doesn’t share personal details with her fans, preferring to maintain a distance. Given her large fan base and popularity, I think that’s wise. … Continue reading →

Jack is the firefighter in the O’Malley family. He thinks nothing of dashing into danger to pull out people who have been trapped in the roaring flames. He feels a strong sense of obligation to serve wherever he can, and doesn’t think about the possible danger to himself while he’s doing it. Cassie Ellis is a firefighter on his same team. She was caught in a horrible blaze and lost the hearing in her ear, and hasn’t been back on the job since. She and Jack have been good friends and they stay in touch, but they aren’t co-workers anymore. … Continue reading →
