Palmer Girl, the second book in my Historic Hotels Collection, is coming soon, September 29th! I can’t wait to share this story with you and I hope that you will love it as much as I do. The Kindle version is available for pre-order now at a limited time lower price.
Read MoreI started this blog/book with a story about letting go of expectations, the story of how I dealt with the loss of a church I loved. That experience was the catalyst behind what you’ve been reading. I knew that letting go of expectations meant that I needed to trust Jesus with all of my heart.
