Catch-up and Prayer

Captain's Log, Stardate 03.23.2011 So as you can guess, I’ve been pretty busy. I recently detailed this all for my friend Meredith Efken when she called me the other day, so here it is in all its goriness: 1) I finished a book January 10th, another book (number 15) in the Patchwork Mysteries series by Guideposts. The books are written by several authors and only available to the Guideposts Book Club right now—you can’t buy them in stores—so I haven’t said much about them, but I’ve been having a lot of fun writing them since they’re cozy mysteries, and I’m a huge Agatha Christie fan. 2) On January 11th, I finished the Art Fact Sheet for Stalker in the Shadows , my next Love Inspired Suspense, coming out in spring 2012. I’m excited about it—it’s about Monica, the third Grant sister (you can read about her sisters Naomi and Rachel in Deadly Intent and Formula for Danger ). 3) On January 16th, I finished self-edits for my fourth Sushi series book, Weddings and Wasabi , and sen

Excerpt - Bathsheba by Jill Eileen Smith

Bathsheba by Jill Eileen Smith Can love triumph over treachery?   Bathsheba is a woman who longs for love. With her husband away fighting the king’s wars, she battles encroaching loneliness–making it frighteningly easy to succumb to the advances of King David. Will one night of unbridled passion destroy everything she holds dear? Can she find forgiveness at the feet of the Almighty? Or has her sin separated her from God—and David—forever?

You will never read the story of David and Bathsheba in the same way again. “Thoroughly engrossing. Jill Eileen Smith receives my highest recommendation as an author of biblical fiction.”— Kim Vogel Sawyer , award-winning author of My Heart Remembers “ Bathsheba is Jill Eileen Smith’s finest work to date. It vividly portrays the devastation caused

Don’t Rain on My Parade

I'm blogging (okay, so I'm actually ranting) on the Love Inspired Authors blog today: Camy here, and I have to whine just a little. It’s been raining a lot the past week and of course this is the week I start training for my next marathon. I mean, God seriously has a warped sense of humor. Click here to read the rest of the post

One searches for justice; the other finds herself on the run until a first edition of The Great Gatsby catches up with her. Will the power of forgiveness set them free, or will they both remain bound by guilt? Excerpt of chapter one: Chapter
