**** Congrats VIRGINIA -- winner of the giveaway!!! *****
She’s bent on fun.
He’s bent on faith.
Till true love bridges the gap.
*****
Cat O’Bryen is the prodigal daughter unhappy with God. First, the father with whom she reconciled dies of cancer and now her twin sister and best friend marries, leaving Cat at home with a newlywed mother, her new husband, and a little brother. But when Cat moves in with a roommate of questionable morals, her family is worried, certain she’s on a path that could damage her faith forever.
Reluctant to get involved with a woman like the one who destroyed his life, ex-Navy SEAL Pastor Chase Griffin steers clear of the attraction he feels for Cat O’Bryen. Until her family begs him to take her under his wing, hoping he can draw her back into the fold. But when the draw she has on him proves too strong to resist, he must rely on the strength of God to offer a friendship as steady and strong as the God whose love is wooing her home.
*****
She's BACKkkkkkkkk!!!!
Julie Lessman has her third book in the "Isle of Hope" series out and ready for you to read! This is book 3: His Steadfast Love. This is a contemporary series, and I loved all three books in the series.
The Kindle edition is now available and is only $5.99. This is TOTALLY worth it folks so order today!
*****
I have not kept it a secret. I simply love Julie Lessman, and I have had the incredible honor of helping to do early edits on some of her books. Sidge asked me who my favorite authors were yesterday, and I told him Mark Twain and Julie Lessman. Seriously. I just love her books.
If you haven't read Julie before I would suggest starting here. This was her first series, "Daughters of Boston" and it remains my favorite of her series.
Edited **** I am going do a giveaway of Julie's first book in the "Winds of Change" series. (I had originally listed the incorrect book for the giveaway. Please note the change.)
Just leave a comment and include your email address. In one week, I will randomly pick one comment to win the giveaway!
And PLEASE take a moment to check out His Steadfast Love on Amazon. And if you leave a comment here, trust that Julie will read it. She does an AMAZING job communicating with her fans!

From another lover of Julie's writing - thanks for your post, Wendi!! I loved "HIS STEADFAST LOVE", possibly her best to date!!No need to enter me in the contest as I already have each of Julie's books!! Blessings!!
Thanks for this post Wendi! Absolutely love Julie Lessman! Her books have always touched my heart with her mixture of faith and romance. Needless to say His Steadfast Love is no exception! Also want to say how wonderful it is that you're giving away a copy of A Passion Most Pure. It's a book that's very close to my heart. Not only was it my intro to Julie,but it gave me inspiration during a very rough time in my life . I would recommend it to anyone! lynnefeuerstein(at)aol(dot)com
HEATHER ... I'm excited you're excited to read it, too, my friend, so I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it!
MICHELLE ... thank you for your sweet comment, and I love the cover, too, because it is SOOOO fitting for this story!! And just FYI, the prequel novella to this series is available as a FREE DOWNLOAD right now, so I encourage you to take advantage. Not only will the prequel give you a sneak peek at the first chapter of book 1, Isle of Hope: Unfailing Love, but it will set the family and setting up for you.

I would love to win this book! Any book by Julie Lessman is wonderful!
Wendi.....I so agree with you. HIS STEADFAST LOVE is amazing! I loved this story! After savoring the series, I'm reluctant to say good-bye to these characters. My consolation is that the ending is PERFECT......and Julie will continue to create more beautiful stories of faith and forgiveness, blessing all who read her books.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Julie Lessman! I'm excited to read HIS STEADFAST LOVE!
