Books come to writers in many different
ways. I’ve been inspired by songs, events, characters from previous
books, even dogs (the Southern Cousins Mysteries). Once in a blue
moon, someone special inspires a story that has to be told. As I
watched my Aunt Maxine’s journey with her donor heart, I knew that
someday her courage and gratitude would undergo the magical
transformation that allows an author to spin fact into fiction.
Aunt Maxine became the world’s second
longest living recipient of a donor heart, and she lived every day as
if it were a gift. You’ll find bits and pieces of her in Stars
to Lead Me Home. I hope you’ll find the best parts of her. She
was a wonderful woman, and I am so blessed that she was part of my
life.
But Stars is much more than a
story about borrowed hearts. It’s about picking up the pieces after
a long-time marriage falls apart. It’s about finding hope and home.
It’s about finding love. But most of all it’s about the
unbreakable bonds of female friendship that shelter us through every
storm.
Maggie and her friends are people you
know. They are the women next door you’d like to invite over for a
cup of tea. They’re the kind of women you gravitate toward at
parties and take shopping and sit beside at church and share your
secrets with.
Early reviewers call Stars to Lead
Me Home the “Must Read book of the year” and “the kind of
book you can’t wait to share with your friends.” You can save
forty percent by preordering. Once the book goes live, the book will
go up to regular price. You’ll find more details on my website:
