With Music in Their Heart- By: Carole Brown

This week on The Hook, I'm featuring Inspirational author, Carole Brown! Besides being a member and active participant of many writing groups, Carole enjoys mentoring beginning writers. She loves to weave suspense and tough topics into her books, along with a touch of romance and whimsy, and is always on the lookout for outstanding titles and catchy ideas. She and her husband reside in SE Ohio but have ministered and counseled nationally and internationally. Together, they enjoy their grandsons, traveling, gardening, good food, the simple life, and did she mention their grandsons?

Releasing November, 2014, is the first book in a new WWII romantic suspense series: With Music In Their Hearts. Here's what the book is about: 

Angry at being rejected for military service, Minister Tyrell Walker accepts the call to serve as a civilian spy within his own country. Across the river from Cincinnati, Ohio, a spy working for a foreign country is stealing secret plans for newly developed ammunition to be used in the war. According to his FBI cousin, this spy favors pink stationery giving strong indications that a woman is involved.

He’s instructed to obtain a room in the Rayner Boarding House run by the lovely, spunky red-haired Emma Jaine Rayner. Sparks of jealousy and love fly between them immediately even as they battle suspicions that one or the other is not on the up and up.

While Tyrell searches for the murdering spy who reaches even into the boarding home, Emma Jaine struggles with an annoying renter, a worried father (who could be involved in this spy thing), and two younger sisters who are very different but just as strong willed as she is.

As Tyrell works to keep his double life a secret and locate the traitor, he refuses to believe that Emma Jaine could be involved even when he sees a red-haired woman in the arms of another man. Could the handsome and svelte banker who’s also determined to win Emma Jaine’s hand for marriage, be the dangerous man he’s looking for? Is the trouble-making renter who hassles Emma Jaine serving as a flunky? Worse, is Papa Rayner so worried about his finances and keeping his girls in the style 

they’re used to, that he’ll stoop to espionage?

Will their love survive the danger and personal issues that arise to hinder the path of true love?

Three red-headed sisters. Three spies. Three stories.

The Cat Lady's Secret

I first met Linda Yezak when she joined the writing group I belong to. I had no idea what to expect from this really loud, beautiful redhead with the slow East Texas drawl. I soon found out she loves the Lord, she loves to write and she loves giving hugs!

The Cat Lady's Secret is Linda's second full-length novel, releasing in June of 2014. Fun fact...this book was a finalist in the American Christian Fiction Writers, Genesis Contest.  Having once entered the Genesis, let me just say, that's quite an accomplishment!



Here's a little bit on what the book is all about.

Millie wears crazy clothes and carries a tote bag and a fish net to
capture feral felines. She walks all over town, and everywhere she goes, she encounters people with wishes, wants, and needs--and all are fulfilled.

But who is the real force behind these blessings? A journalist wants to know, and the love of her life finds out...

As her past barrels toward her with breakneck speed, our story's heroine finds her only salvation lies behind the walls of a state prison. She must find her answers there, but can she face the trip?

Here's a couple Amazon reviews:

Delightful book! It's a fun read with a message of forgiveness. I loved it!! - 4 Stars - Ane Mulligan

The Cat Lady's Secret is a secret worth keeping, but you will be glad when the jig is up and God's handiwork shines through. - 5 Stars - Katherine Harms
