Produktbeschreibung

VOTED FAVORITE CONTEMPORARY BOOK AND FAVORITE CONTEMPORARY COVER IN 2002 "Why would I want to move to Alaska?" That's the question Glorianna Kane asks upon learning of an unexpected inheritance. Soon, though, sensing an opportunity to leave behind some bad memories, the widow takes the chance to forge a new life for herself and her son. But her plan backfires when she finds she cannot escape the past but must learn to deal with it - and miles away from home. Alaskan seaplane pilot Trapper Timberwolf likes his life just the way it is. Flying, fishing, and doing part-time mission work fill his days. He accounts to no one but himself and God. A previous relationship has convinced Trapper that he doesn't want to pursue a wife or children... not even the new widow in town or her son, who could use a male influence in his life. But is Trapper's way God's Way?

Autorenporträt

Joyce Livingston has done many things in her life (in addition to being a wife, mother of six, and grandmother to oodles of grandkids, all of whom I love dearly). From being a television broadcaster for eighteen years, to lecturing and teaching on quilting and sewing, to writing magazine articles on a variety of subjects. She's danced with Lawrence Welk, ice-skated with a Chimpanzee, had bottles broken over her head by stuntmen, interviewed hundreds of celebrities and controversial figures, and many other interesting and unusual things. But now, when she isn't off traveling to wonderful and exotic places as a part-time tour escort, her days are spent sitting in front of her computer, creating stories. Joyce became a widow in 2004. In 2008, she married her Sunday school teacher, Pastor Dale Lewis (who had also lost his spouse), and became a pastor's wife, serving daily with him in his ministry. Four of her books have been named Contemporary Book of the Year in the Heartsong Readers Poll, and she was voted Favorite Author of the Year 3 times. In addition, her Heartsong book, One Last Christmas, won the coveted Contemporary Book of the Year award given by The American Christian Fiction Writers organization. In addition to writing for Barbour, Joyce also writes for Love Inspired. Her first venture into a larger women's fiction book is THE WIDOWS' CLUB, also published by Barbour Publishing, soon to be followed up with a second book, INVASION OF THE WIDOWS' CLUB. Joyce feels her writing is a ministry and a calling from God, and hopes readers will be touched and uplifted by what she writes. What's on the horizon for Joyce? More and better books that she hopes will please her readers!
