All Things Hidden by Tricia Goyer

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The past is brought to light...

Charlotte is cleaning out the basement of Bedford Community Church when she comes across a tattered and yellowed newspaper article. The clipping, published more than a century ago, implicates her great-great-grandfather in the loss of funds intended to help finish building the church. Charlotte has heard stories about the incident through the years, but now it seems the past has come back to haunt her. Is it just her imagination or are people treating her differently now that they think she's descended from a crook? Will Charlotte be able to clear her family's name once and for all?

Meanwhile, Sam is spending time with a new girl in town-and is keeping secrets from his grandparents about where they go. Christopher is trying to get an article published in the local paper, and Emily reluctantly partners with a foreign exchange student on a class project and eventually comes to see that they're not that different after all. As old secrets are brought to light, the whole family is reminded that the truth is often more complicated than it seems.

Come home to Heather Creek. Get to know Charlotte Stevenson, who is raising her grandchildren on the family farm after a tragic accident changes all of their lives forever. With the help of her husband Bob and a close-knit circle of friends, she will do whatever it takes to keep this fragile family together. See how God, who makes the sun rise and the crops grow, watches over our lives too.

AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT

I had a chance to interview this amazing women....

Tell us something that most readers won't know.

I hardly ever paint my nails. I not like chipping. They're naturally long and strong and I just let them grow :)

You were a teen mom, what was the hardest part for you personally?

The hardest part was feeling the rejection from my boyfriend. Young women, like me, are looking for love and when I didn't find it that was very hard.

How do you think that (teen mom) molded you into who you are today? (Good or bad!?!)

It was during my teen pregnancy that I gave my heart to the Lord. I was LOW so I turned to Jesus. I'm thankful for that now!

Did you always want to be a writer?

I knew I wanted to be a writer in my early 20s. I hadn't thought about it before that, but from the 6th grad I'd always loved to read.

20+ books... WOW! What you working on next?

I'm currently working on a co-written novel with my friend Ocieanna Fleiss: Love Finds You in Victory Heights Washington

Who is your biggest cheerleader(s)?

My husband and my kids. They are amazing. John has done so much to encourage me in this process. I wouldn't be writing without him!

Who are some of your favorite authors?

Francine Rivers, Robin Lee Hatcher, Henry Blackaby, Catherine Marshall, Oswald Chambers

Who would you say your writing style compares to?

I've been told my WWII fiction is similar to Bodie Thoene. That's a compliment!

Tricia, thanks so much for visiting with us today. Have a blessed day and good luck as you continue to share your inspiration with others.

Thank you!!!

MY REVIEW

All Things hidden was a great keep-you-glued story. The characters, like Charlotte, Bob, Sam and Kendall are all so easy to fall in love with.  I found myself often not wanting to join reality and wanting to stay in the cozy little town with Charlotte. 


I often thought about how I would feel trying to solve an old mystery to clear the name of a relative that I'd never met. I know that sometimes (though it is unfair) we are defined by our relatives and it plain out sucks! I know this first hand, people look at me through the sins and past of this person thoughI had nothing to do with it, or was even born when it all started, but still, I am marked with the 'scars' of their sin and people around me see me with that sin too, though it is not my own.


I am sad to see the Heather Creek Series end.  I'd love to go read the prior books in this series!
