kelly asked Lurlene McDaniel:

Hi Lurlene! You are my favorite Christian fiction writer. My favorite books by you are Hold Fast the Dream and Eternal Flame. Both part of the Forever Romances book club I belonged to years ago, which I joined through Guideposts. Could you please continue to write some of your more Contemporary Christian Romances for those of us who are older? I have enjoyed these stories so much!

Lurlene McDaniel Thank you for your kind words. Yes, I loved writing these Christian romances, and once thought this would be the path of my writing career. But God had another direction for my writing....the Young Adut genre. And that’s where I made my living and grew my fan base for 30 years. So many of those readers have grown up and have careers and families, which is why I wrote the Windermere series, beginning with THE YEAR OF LUMINOUS LOVE. At least my characters were out of high school in this series! My next release for this series will be on Dec 18, THE GIRL WITH THE BROKEN HEART. I appreciate your encouragement to re-awaken my first dream.
