It released this month and it is the second book in the Surrender to Destiny Series. If you don't have the first (Surrender The Heart), here's a link to Amazon.
Synopsis:
Step into a breathtaking novel of adventure and romance set amid the War of 1812. During an assault by an enemy sailor, timid farm girl Rose McGuire is saved by the least likely of heroes—a British Naval Lieutenant. Now that he’s wounded, she’ll have to heal as well as hide him. Alex Reed is being aided and abetted by his enemy—albeit an innocent and attractive one. But he might be doing Rose more harm than good if his presence on her farm is discovered. As their love blooms, trouble looms. Will this couple survive another British invasion?

Alone and afraid, Mindy McLaurin enters a women’s penitentiary for embezzlement charges. She says that she’s not guilty. She suspects that a co-worker has pinned the embezzlement on her. While in prison, she’s also on a separate mission to find information within the walls. Mindy has two dilemmas: she must both clear her charges and snoop for a private investigator – who just happens to be her boyfriend.
Mindy starts her investigation by digging up any info on what happened to a young woman named Alexis. Fearing foul play, the mother of the young woman hired Mindy’s boyfriend, Mitch, to investigate the death. Mitch saw Mindy’s going behind bars as an opportune time. He hired - or rather used - her to look into the situation. But Mindy soon realizes that Mitch is hardly the guy for her, because he’s in no hurry to bail her out.
In captivity Mindy meets with many challenges. She creates enemies and friends inside the cold exterior of the prison. Not all is bad; she meets a handsome counselor and an unexpected individual. Through it all and in desperation, Mindy clings to God when being faced by deadly threats. Will she ever get out of prison alive and find who killed Alexis?
If I could sum up one word to describe Killing Time, I would say that it’s unique. Here’s the reason: the setting is located in a prison. K. Dawn Byrd really captures the hustle and bustle of the women’s penitentiary. It’s not pretty, nor is it pleasant. The inmates that meet the main character are mean and unfriendly towards her. The author realistically portrayed what it would be like to be stuck in such an inhospitable position.
I loved the areas of the book where Mindy clings to God because she feels so alone. If we were in her shoes, what would we do? Would we rely on God or ourselves to make things happen? Because the main character meets such hardened people, there’s some crudeness – but that’s expected. Watch out for the suspense, because it’s killer!
I liked what K. Dawn Byrd tackled in writing Killing Time, and I would definitely read more from her. I recommend it to women who like a mix of suspense, mystery, and romance.
Nicole Michelin avoids airplanes, motorcycles, and most of all, Japan, where her parents once were missionaries. Something happened in Japan...something that sent Nicole and her father back to America alone...something of which Nicole knows only bits and pieces. But she is content with life in little Mount Olive, North Carolina, with her quirky relatives, tank of lively fish, and plenty of homemade pineapple chutney. Through her online column for the Pretty Fishy Web site, she meets Harrison Michaels, who, much to her dismay, lives in Japan. She attempts to avoid him, but his e-mails tug at her heart. Then Harrison reveals that he knew her as a child in Japan. In fact, he knows more about her childhood than she does...

Carly Richards is always running. She stays only so long in one location before her abusive ex-fiancé can find her again. However, on this juncture it’s different. Traveling by car, she makes her way to a modest little town in the state of Montana. She quickly sells the car and finds a job working at a hardware shop. The owners are kind-hearted and treat her like their own granddaughter.
Feeling somewhat comfortable, Carly finds herself glued to the small town. She decisively makes a bold choice to remain there. Carly visits the local church but tries desperately to remain detached from the community. Little does she know, God has other plans. Inevitably, the townspeople ease their way into her guarded heart.
Carly welcomes all the attention from new friends, but she’s still unsure of her predicament. Having the attention from a guy named Joe Baird confuses her. What if her ex-fiancé finds out? She can’t risk Joe getting hurt, so she avoids him at every turn. Will Carly be able to face her fears and trust God?
My Thoughts on The Price of Trust:
Amanda Stephan is a newly discovered author for me, and I recently acquired her debut novel. I must say The Price of Trust is a decent first start. What I like about Amanda’s writing is how much fun she had with her characters. You could tell she enjoyed creating them. They’re entertaining and not overly complicating. The romance between the two main characters, Carly and Joe, is beyond sweet. When an author has characters she cares about, it affects how you read the book. It doesn’t take long for them to tug at your heart.
Reading through the story, I was expecting non-stop action. Its progression is slower than I envisioned, but the suspense is killer! I was waiting on pins and needles for the ex-fiancé to finally appear. There is violence, as Carly reveals the abuse she suffered from him. It wasn’t an issue for me, as I’ve read far worse. In fact, it’s practically tame compared to other books.
I’m sure Amanda Stephan intends to publish additional books. If so, I will probably be waiting in line to read them. Like suspense and romance intermingled together? Pick up The Price of Trust!
Love Finds You Under the Mistletoe by Irene Brand and Anita Higman 3 1/2 stars
An Appalachian Christmas:
Julia Mayfield’s mission is to bring her young nephew to the small town of Mistletoe so he can stay with his grandparents. When the grandparents don’t exactly throw out the welcome mat, she has no choice but to stay with a motherly woman and her handsome son, David. Things don’t go exactly to plan for Julia. She has no idea how to take care of a little boy and she’s afraid that she’s falling in love. And most of all, she has to find a way to fulfill her dying sister’s wish, or she’ll wind up staying in Mistletoe forever – something that she’s sure won’t ever happen. Will God show Julia what’s missing in her heart?
Once Upon a Christmas Eve:
Holly Goodnight owns a quaint shop in the town of Noel, Missouri – where she sells everything and anything Christmas. Business is doing remarkably well for Holly and she receives a request for an interview on TV. This and being voted the best Christmas shop in America. With all that attention, comes a charming novelist by the name of Van Keaton – who wishes to write Holly’s story and… maybe steal her heart in the process. But what will Holly’s best friend, Owen Quigly, have to say about that?
My Thoughts on Love Finds You Under the Mistletoe:
My interests were piqued to read a book from the Love Finds You series, since I’ve seen them all over the internet in giveaways and reviews. I did eventually receive a copy. So, for the first time, I opened the cover of Love Finds You Under the Mistletoe and found two tender romance stories within. The two stories are not completely separate, but both interlocked through the magic of mistletoe.
The first story is An Appalachian Christmas by Irene Brand. It takes place in the Appalachian Mountains, which is aptly named “Mistletoe” - where mistletoe grows in abundance. The view on the characters and mountains of Mistletoe were probably the best part, because I love history. I find it intriguing the way people dealt with life after the Second World War, and how the people of the Appalachian Mountains lived during that day.
The second story is Once Upon A Christmas Eve by Anita Higman. It takes place in a cozy little town named Noel - pronounced like Joel .Unlike the first story, this is not set in post-war but in modern day. Because of its humor, I have to say that I enjoyed this more than An Appalachian Christmas. And believe it or not, this is tied to the first story. I won’t mention why… You’ll just have to pick up Love Finds You Under the Mistletoe and find out for yourself!
If my review enticed you to read this book before Christmas, make sure you do it with a cup of spiced apple cider or hot chocolate. I recommend it!
Four girlfriends make a pact to find true love by their twenty-eighth Christmas. As the deadline looms, each keeps busy with expanding career and each friend experiences faltering Christmas spirit.
Lori is a major struggling to bolster the small town economy; Madison runs a Christmas store and often travels to build up stock; Deanna is the director of tourism on a campaign to put her town on the map; and Kathy is a writer living in California who has lost her small town faith. When romance arrives in Mistletoe, Montana, in unexpected Christmas packages, will each woman be able to accept the gift?

In the book’s opening, we’re transported to Colinsford, Ohio in 1890. There we follow the main character of Carrington (also known as Carrie) Brouwer. She has come to America to find a place to live and a job. Her father has just recently died in France, and she has no living relatives to assist her. So she reaches out to her wealthy friend, Augusta – who was one of her father’s students.
Carrie arrives in America with an uncertain future and a crate full of paintings from her father. She tries to get comfortable with living at Augusta’s home, but it proves to be uncomfortable and difficult. She’s sure that the mother is not happy with her stay, and she feels the pressure to move out. What Carrie desires most of all, is to find a job and a place to call hers – no matter how small.
Her big chance comes when Augusta’s father mentions that his carousel factory needs a painter. Carrie sees the opportunity and jumps on it. She mentions that she’s a painter and that she’s sure she’ll be right for the position. Everyone is skeptical about Carrie taking it except for Augusta’s mother – who is eager to get Carrie out of her home.
She takes the job and meets opposition. After all, she’s a woman. What is she doing in a factory with only men? Carrie fights to keep her dream alive of being an artist and keeps pressing on. Is being a carousel painter all that she desires or will something else stir her heart?
My Thoughts on The Carousel Painter:
This is told in first-person from the viewpoint of Carrington Brouwer. I admittedly have not read many books written from this angle. What I have read is Rain Song and How Sweet It Is by Alice J. Wisler. Unlike these, this is not set in a modern time frame. It takes place in 1890.
The characters are all interesting and well-developed. I enjoyed seeing each and every one of them through the eyes of Carrie. I especially liked the love interest in this – he’s not the same sort of guy you always read about. He’s shorter and has a slight German accent (he says “ja” quite a bit).
I swept through the pages easily. It’s a light read – judged not by how long or short it is, but by how smoothly it flows. The Carousel Painter is a fun book to add to your fiction collection. It would make for a great gift (Christmas is coming *hint). I really look forward to reading more of Judith Miller’s works. Keep up the great writing, Judith!
Marianne Denton and her family give off the illusion of being wealthy when they are only barely scraping by. Marianne’s mother is terribly ill, and she requires expensive medicines. The only way to get them is to enter into marriage with the right man. And that man is Noah Brennin. But Marianne is presented with two major problems: she can’t stand him, and she could never reveal the reason for marrying. If everything goes to plan, her dowry will not be going to him but to her mother.
Noah Brennin is a merchant who trades with the British. He hopes to build up his business and strike it rich with shipping and trading goods. He’s not doing it so much for the money, but to make his family proud - especially his father. And he’s to marry Miss Marianne Denton or “Princess” as he likes to call her. He remembers her as a snob and not someone that he would ever wish to marry. He’s only doing it for her nice dowry.
One of them will come to terms with a painful past while the other learns to trust. In the early stages of the War of 1812, both will be greatly challenged. Will they be able to let go of their broken hearts and find God’s love? This is the only love that can set them free. And will they, in turn, love each other?
My Thoughts on Surrender the Heart:
I really like this book (hence the four stars) by MaryLu Tyndall. It’s a good beginning for her new series: Surrender to Destiny.
I noticed differences from this and MaryLu’s other books. They aren’t major or anything – just little subtle changes. I kind of like them, actually. I, honestly, didn’t think there was as much romance in this compared to her others. There’s also little mention of pirates. Granted, there are a few privateers and maybe one or two former pirates. But that’s pretty much it.
With the story, I loved the facts on the history of our nation. MaryLu did her research on this one. She paints so clearly the struggles and pain of working on a ship during war. I cannot believe how hard the British ran their men. It was a tough life, and I’m glad that the author was able to give me a glimpse into that.
I don’t really like to reveal too much about a book in a review, but the message behind this is awesome. If you’re dealing with trust issues or insecurity, then you’ll gain something from reading this. I guarantee you’ll like it.
The next book in this series is Surrender the Night - which will be released in March of 2011. I’m eagerly awaiting it!
Enjoy a trip back through history among the rolling hills of rural New York. Find a place of refuge where three couples are free to open their hearts to the possibilities of love. You will be pleasantly rewarded as Pamela Griffin's storytelling leads you on your journey to faith-filled romance.

Deena Livingston is a young woman who finds life to be somewhat sour to the taste, but that’s not how she feels about cake. No, in fact, she loves to cook sweets. She’s doing what she loves most, working at an upscale restaurant in Atlanta. But her dreams are dashed when a car accident leaves scars on both her body and her heart. After suffering an accident and heartbreak both at the same time, Deena decides to leave it all behind in Atlanta.
Deena faces her fear of driving and heads off in her car to North Carolina so that she can start a new life. She’s hoping that this change will be for the good. When she reaches North Carolina, she settles into an old cabin – a cabin that her grandfather left to her in his will. When she looks through the cabin, she’s struck by the fact that she didn’t know her grandpa very well.
After settling in, Deena meets with her aunt in the cabin and they discuss her grandfather’s will. Her aunt explains to Deena all the fine details of the will, including the house and something else… teaching children how to cook. Deena is surprised. No one ever mentioned a school. Why would her grandpa suggest this?
My Thoughts on How Sweet It Is:
How Sweet It Is by Alice J. Wisler is like a cake that has been cooked to perfection. Told in first person, the story flows smoothly as we follow Deena – the main character. I loved being placed in her shoes and watching as she learned from the struggles in her life. She seemed so real. I laughed, scolded, and was immeasurably proud of Deena when the book ended. So good! The pages are filled to the brim with delectable humor, charming characters, and tasty recipes.
Without a doubt, Alice is one of my favorite authors. Why? I’ve read both of her books and I gave them the highest ratings that I possibly could in a book review. I’m never disappointed with any of her work; her writing style is one of the finest out there. If you haven’t read Rain Song, or How Sweet It Is, then I recommend that you do. You won’t regret it.
Look for Alice’s new book Hatteras Girl which releases in October. Rest assured this is one book that I’m not going to miss!
Isabelle Gayarre, fleeing a life of servitude, refuses to be owned by anyone, yet soon finds her heart in danger of being possessed by the godless Captain Josiah Carter. Can Isabelle trust him to help her escape without losing her heart? Josiah Carter, running from demons of his own, is stirred by the presence of the beautiful woman seeking refuge on his ship. Realizing that a runaway slave can never be his, legally or otherwise, a storm begins to brew within. Will their love ever reach a safe haven, or is it doomed to wreck upon the jagged reefs of the Fairweather Keys?

Cathy Bryant lives in Texas where she writes and teaches music. She just recently released her debut novel, Texas Roads (2009 ACFW Genesis contest finalist), in March of this year. She's currently working on her second book for the Miller's Creek Series.
Cathy dropped by The Christian Scroll to do an interview with us and has graciously offered to give one of her books away! *Make sure to read the rules below before entering.
Welcome Cathy!
Thanks for inviting me to your blog, Grace!
When did you decide that you wanted to pursue writing?
Since childhood I’ve enjoyed writing, and I can’t remember a time when writing a novel wasn’t on my bucket list. My last chick flew the nest in 2004, and over the next few years, God seemed to orchestrate a series of events that made me realize how brief life is. So in 2007 I attended my first writing conference and over the next year or two started snatching up every craft-of-writing book I could get my hands on. I was hooked after that!
Besides writing, you teach piano and singing. I take it that you love music?
Music is as much a part of my life as breathing. Both sides of my family were musical and it has always come easy to me. When I’m struggling with something, I crank out old tapes and albums (shows you how old I am) or sit down at the piano with a stack of piano music.
What are a few of your favorite artists/bands?
My favorite Christian contemporary artist is Stephen Curtis Chapman. His heart for God flows from the lyrics of his music. I also enjoy other artists and styles of music--Big Band, Tony Bennett, Bette Midler, jazz, classical. Of course my all-time favorite musician is my son, Jase Bryant. He’s a musician in the Dallas area—an awesome guitarist, songwriter and singer—if I do say so myself.
Texas Roads is your first book in the Miller’s Creek Series. What did you enjoy most about writing it?
I really enjoyed the whole process, though edits and revisions seemed to take forever!!! It was fun to create Miller’s Creek and the cast of characters that live there. Ever so often I’ll catch myself wondering what Steve and Dani are up to.
Out of the many characters in the story, which one is your favorite and why? Without a doubt, my favorite character in Texas Roads is Mama Beth. She’s so much of what I someday hope to be—wise, kind, loving—and full of witty humor!
What is the overall message of the book?
The theme of the story is about making Christ our home. Though we may have temporary dwelling places here on earth, none of them are truly home for believers. Only Jesus can fill that home-shaped hole in each of our hearts.
You’re currently working on the second book for the Miller’s Creek Series. Do you have a title for it? Can you share with us a glimpse of what that book will be about?
I had to chuckle at the question about the title for book two, since I’ve only changed it about a million times. The title is “A Path Less Travelled”…at least for now. ;0)
Here’s the back cover blurb for the second book:
Trish James is tired of being rescued. When a spooked horse claims her husband's life, she determines to make a life for herself and her son without outside help. But will it mean leaving the place that's etched on her heart?
Andy Tyler has had to struggle for everything, and starting a new law practice in Miller's Creek, Texas is no different. Though prepared for business challenges, he's not prepared to fall in love--especially with yet another woman who will probably abandon him for her career. Will Andy and Trish be able to see beyond the obvious to take a path less traveled?
Do you have any advice for the budding writers out there?
First of all, read, read, read. Read in the genre in which you’d like to write. Read classics. Read other genres. And while you’re reading, also study the craft of writing. You’ll be able to correlate what you’re learning with what you’re reading. One drawback to this method: You’ll never be able to read without analyzing ever again. At least that’s the way it happened for me.
I would also suggest purchasing gently used craft-of-writing books and treating them like college textbooks. Mine are dog-eared, highlighted, paper-clipped and sticky-noted, and the margins are full of scribbles. I also take notes on my computer, which helps me retain more of what I’m learning.
Thanks Cathy for doing this interview with us and for giving a book away! I wish you all the best on your writing. Blessings!
Thank you, Grace, for having me over. I enjoyed the visit very much, and I’m looking forward to finding out who wins the giveaway!

Dani Davis’ car has run out of gas and in the middle of nowhere. Dani waits in her car alone on a dusty Texas road hoping that someone will stop by and give her a hand. Someone does come along eventually but he doesn’t look like her knight in shining armor. A cowboy stops in an old pickup truck and offers Dani a ride into town - she reluctantly agrees to ride with him.
While riding with the cowboy, Dani finds out that his name is Steve. She comes to realize that they’re complete opposites – she’s a city girl and he’s a country guy. They soon get into a heated conversation in which Steve quickly drops her off at a hardware shop. Dani uses the phone at the shop and calls her Aunt Beth “Mama Beth.” Dani is soon picked up by her aunt and taken to her home to stay.
After living at her aunt’s quaint home for a few weeks, Dani decides that she wants to stay permanently. Mama Beth advises Dani to pray and think it over first before deciding. She’s determined that this is where she wants to live - in a comfortable and peaceful home. But she soon learns that it’s not as quiet or private as she had thought; there are plenty of nosy neighbors around.
Dani had escaped her city life to leave everything behind her. Her relationship with her mother is falling apart and she’s suffered terrible loss. All Dani wants is a place to call home. Will she find what she’s looking for?
My Thoughts on Texas Roads:
I fell in love with the characters in Texas Roads – they’re so endearing and lifelike. The setting that the story revolves around is also something that I loved about the book. Cathy Bryant was able to paint a picture of what Texas looks like. The book really has a comfortable and lazy-like aura - a perfect book to read during summer. Just like the character Dani, I never wanted to leave!
Texas Roads is the first book in the Miller’s Creek Series and Cathy Bryant is currently working on the second. I’m anxious to read more about the characters that I grew to love. I recommend Texas Roads to readers, who enjoy a sweet romance, witty characters, and a fun story.
