Please tell us a little about your novel, Chance in Maine.
When he met her, everything in his world of silence began to change.
Chance Carmichael’s accident two years ago not only shattered in his life, it shattered his faith. Tired of living with the pitying looks, he leaves his hometown in Virginia and ventures north. Anger and bitterness remain his constant companions until he stumbles across Shamrock Inn. Will he find the peace his soul desperately longs for?
Amanda Lin loves her life in Camden, Maine, and working at the Shamrock Inn. Her parents move to Denver, Colorado, leaving an empty space in her heart, and loneliness threatens to engulf her. Will she find the love her heart deeply desires or will she remain in a state of constant loneliness?

DeleteJoi is a new author for me. I like the sound of the story. My favorite get-away is the beach--at any time of the year. But, I also have a get-a-way place in Granbury, Texas where my husband and I went on our honeymoon.annknowles03@aol.com+
ReplyDeleteAnn, glad you found a new-to-you author here. Thanks for commenting.
DeleteHi Ann!
DeleteMy hubby and I went to San Diego, and when we lived in CA, we loved visiting there!

Hi Ann! My family and I are headed to Ireland as missionaries soon, so while the mountains are my favorite getaway, the beach will be soon! :)

Book sounds intriguing. There's a church that I used to visit many years ago that always brought peace no matter the circumstance.
