Love Inspired Authors

Hi Friends,

Carrie Turansky here. I hope you are enjoying those first tastes of fall where you live. Here in New Jersey the leaves are just beginning to change color and the weather is turning deliciously cool and crisp. I love fall! We have a big pumpkin on the porch and lots of mums blooming in the front garden to welcome the season and our friends who stop by.

My new book, Seeking His Love, is out on bookstore shelves this month. I hope you will enjoy this story! Here is a short summary:

When widower Cam McKenna must temporarily care for his fourteen-year-old niece, he seeks the help and advice of Christian youth theater director, Rachel Clark. Rachel quickly teaches him a thing or two about relating to teens. She also helps him work through grief and guilt he has carried since the death of his wife and son in a car accident. But when Rachel’s questionable past comes to light, Cam is not sure he should trust the beautiful director. They both most learn the importance of honesty and forgiveness if they want to build a relationship that will last.

Seeking His Love is set in Fairhaven, Washington, which is the beautiful historical section of Bellingham. Though I've never visited Fairhaven, I've fallen in love with it through my online research and through contacts with people who live there. If you have a chance, I hope you will visit Fairhaven and check out some of the businesses and sights I mention in the book including, Village Books, the Fairhaven Village Green, and the WPA bridge over Whatcom Falls.

Many months before our books come out, our editor asks us to send photos with suggestions for cover ideas. I searched online, found several photos of the Fairhaven area, and sent them in. I was so pleased to see the cover design the artist created for Seeking His Love. It reflects the natural beauty of northwest Washington, and it also captures the mood of the story. Here is the photo I sent that suggested this design.

Hope you will stop by my website for more info on Seeking His Love. You can read the first chapters of all my books, see the recipes mentioned in the story and learn more about the settings and characters. Plus I have some fun photos of my family and other authors at special events. Here's the link:www.carrieturansky.com

Blessings and Happy Reading,

Carrie
