About this ebook
But Rick found an unexpected obstacle in Becky Ellison, the previous owner's daughter and the current editor of the magazine. Though she loved her job, she had yearned to write fiction–until a very negative review of her first published book–by Rick Ethier–had quashed that dream forever. Had God crossed their paths to give them both a new direction?
About the author
Though Carolyne Aarsen grew up in a city, she considers herself a full-fledged country person. When she's not writing, she's helping her husband with his logging business, their herd of cows, their horses and their chickens that managed to escape the clutches of the coyotes and owls. They are also involved with the youth in their church. Because of her isolation from any kind of writing group, Carolyne learned to write by trial and error and by taking correspondence courses while she and her husband were raising their four natural children and the numerous foster children that came through their home. She documented the fun and foibles of their life in a weekly humor column carried in a number of Alberta newspapers. But her first love was always fiction. In April 1997 she was thrilled to hear that her hard work had paid off with a contract with Steeple Hill Love Inspired books. Since then she has published a number of books. Ever Faithful, her second book for the Love Inspired line, won the Toronto Romance Writers Golden Opportunity Contest for unpublished writers. Her ninth book, Twin Blessings, received four-and-a-half stars from Romantic Times Magazine. Her stories reflect a love of God, family, rural Canadian life and a profound appreciation of God's creation and how He constantly calls His children to Himself. She is blessed to have sincere Christian parents and to be married to a committed Christian husband. She hopes and prays that in her writing she can show how people's weaknesses are covered by Christ's strength. Her dream is to make Christ's sacrifice accessible to people of all ages and places through the lives of her characters.
