Christmas Stories Set Near You
My debut novel, Love Finds You in Sun Valley, was part of a series with a different book in every state across the country. I had to really research my setting to write it, and thus, locations have become a big part of my writing process.
Because of this, and because it's always fun for readers to find a story set in an area they already know, I thought I'd see if I could compile a list of Christian Christmas stories set in every state. The Facebook group Avid Readers helped me out, though there are a few gaps we haven't been able to fill yet. If you are aware of a book from one of the missing states, please comment and I'll fill in the space.
Also, I want to tell you that the sequel to my debut novel, Finding Love in Big Sky, has now been made into a movie. The film won't release in the U.S. until next year (if you're in Canada, click here to watch it NOW), but for the next three days you can download my romance for only 99 cents! Click here to check it out, or keep scrolling to find a holiday story set in your neck of the woods.
