Better Late Than Never!

Here is the photo of me with Alice J. Wisler, author of How Sweet It Is and Rain Song! I went to see her at her book signing at Lifeway Christian Bookstore a couple of Saturdays ago. I am really slow in getting things done, especially when they involve downloading pictures from a digital camera (LOL).

Alice is not only an awesome author, she is a great person! It was fun getting to finally meet her after reading her blog and messaging her on Facebook.

If you haven't read either one of her books, you need to! :)

Cover Attraction is hosted by Marcia at The Printed Page. She says "I'm a very visual person and love beautiful or interesting cover art. It entices, and invites me to stop and take a peek, instead of walking right on by."



Rain Song by Alice J. Wisler
ISBN: 0764204777
Subject: Christian Fiction

From Librarything.com: His words have unlocked a special place in her heart, but he lives in the one place she vowed she'd never return... 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 website, Nicole 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! Will Nicole face her fears in order to discover her past and take a chance on love?

I haven't read this book yet...I purchased it last Saturday at Lifeway Christian Book Store, where I actually got to meet the author herself! My hubby snapped a picture of Alice & I and I had hoped to get it posted on here by now, but I have had a rough week, once again, filled with sinus headaches and picking up Strings ashes from the vet. I promise I will post it soon!

Why I like this cover: I love this cover because of the umbrella. It is pink, which is my very favorite color, so it caught my eye immediately. I also like the background of Nicole standing in the field, fully prepared for a rain storm to come along, with her bright umbrella!

What attractive cover did YOU find today?

"I cannot imagine what it would feel like to have your feet burned on a hot stove. There are things in life you want to thrust into the Do Not Open drawer, and after doing so, conveniently forget that such a drawer exists."
