edit data

Linda W. Yezak lives in Texas, where tall tales abound and exaggeration is an art form. She shares a house with her husband of 30+ years and an ornery calico named Molly. She has a deep love for both and a deeper love for her heavenly Father.

Currently on her office brag wall are finalists plaques for the Genesis, Carol, and Selah awards, along with winner- and grand-prize-winner plaques for her short story "Slider," which won an honorable mention in Saturday Evening Posts's 2016 Great American Fiction Contest.

A self-described nut, she says, "I keep my feet candy-coated, because there's no telling when one or both will land in my mouth."

Candy flavor of choice? "Peppermint. Chocolate melts too fast."

Listened to the audio of this and loved everything--plot, romance, and reader. Colleen can fit a lot into a novella and still end it in a satisfying manner.
