Back-to-School Scavenger Hunt

​Welcome to the inaugural Back to School Christian Fiction Scavenger Hunt. We hope that throughout this hunt, you discover some new books and get to know a little more about us.
A few things before you begin:
This hunt is a blog hop. Collect the “clues” (pieces to the longer phrase) at each stop. Enter the individual giveaways along the way, then click on the link to the next stop and repeat until you reach #28, where you will input the full phrase as your entry to the grand prize drawing.
The hunt begins August 30, 2023, at noon EST and ends September 4, 2023, so you have plenty of time to visit each stop. If you need to step away and come back later, make a note of the last stop you visited, and go to this post with the list of all stops on the hunt.
If you are having trouble viewing the posts, you may need to switch browsers. Chrome and Firefox sometimes work better than Microsoft Explorer or Edge.

I don't know about your house, but in mine, from the moment school starts to the end of the school year, we run busy. With my husband teaching high school, my kids in elementary, and me teaching preschool, we're headed all the directions at once. It's still one of my favorite times of year, though.
For one thing, my birthday is this month, as is my son's. We get back into a rhythm and schedule, which is something I tend to thrive on. I love hearing about my family's experiences at school and stories about friends. And it's almost fall!
Okay, so I live in the South, and that means fall won't really start for a few months. But my heart is ready. After all, the stores have their pumpkins and black cats and colored leaves and long sleeves out already. Doesn't that mean the weather is right behind?
I ask that like we weren't enjoying weather in the 100s last week. Ugh.
Maybe I just need to read a book ... or several ... set in the time of year I love most. One with crisp leaves, yummy foods, boots and pumpkins and hayrides. Yes, please! Good thing I have several books that encompass that season, huh? An Unexpected Legacy is set from fall to Christmas and enjoys all of the above-mentioned goodies. Writing Home actually starts in the fall and goes all the way around to early summer of the next year. And my newest book, Window of the Heart, starts in the Spring and ends in the fall. And, even better, it ends with a fall wedding!
Obviously, I need to write a few more fall books, because that is not nearly enough. Still, it's a good start. ;)
Do you love reading about one season more than another? Do you prefer to read about certain seasons during certain times of the year?
​My newest book is one of the ones up for grabs in this giveaway, so be sure to collect all the clues!
