Behind the Story: Michelle

My newest book, Saving Grace, releases in just over a month, on October 6th. Over the next weeks, I'm going to be giving you behind the scenes peeks, insight into my characters, a deleted scene, and even a glimpse of a chapter or two to get you ready to hold this book in your hands. Today, here's my main character, Michelle Wilson.

Michelle Wilson grew up in the little town of Cedar Springs, Arkansas. Her goal in life? To be one of the star reporters on the local paper.
When the job goes to the nephew of the main editor instead of Michelle, she takes a job in Little Rock for a few years. But now the position is open once more, and Michelle is headed home. She plans to start up a small photography business on the side, and already has a wedding booked.

Michelle's parents are loving and can't wait to help her get settled back into their hometown. Her dad works in the marketing department at the local greeting card factory and her mom keeps house. In the past, they've fostered dozens of children, bringing up Michelle and her brother Mark to have a special place in their own hearts for needy children.
The other person Michelle is excited to live close to once more is her lifelong best friend, Gregory Marshall. 
Little does Michelle know that her plans are about to have several major kinks added to them.
Saving Grace is the story of how Michelle deals with the changes in her plans, and learns that God always works good from a bad situation, even if it isn't in the way she expected. Are you ready to read more? Have you ever wanted to move back to your hometown or are you one of those people who never left in the first place?
