DECEMBER 2009:
a new holiday Covington novel currently titled
A Blue and Gray Christmas
In a 200-year-old box, Grace, Hannah and Amelia find letters and diaries of two Civil War soldiers, one Confederate, one Union, left to die on a battlefield. They were rescued by an old woman, Miss Ella Mae Evans, and taken in her creaky wagon to the area that would become Covington. Healed by Miss Ella Mae, the men remain and build new lives. They take her name-Evans.
Can Grace, Hannah, and Amelia find the men's ancestors in Connecticut and South Carolina? Can they locate their descendents and will these strangers accept an invitation to come together in Covington for Christmas?
An amazing, exciting tale of discovery, as the ladies set about to unravel both the past and the present.
Look for it in December of this year....

ABOUT JOAN'S LATEST:
PROMISES OF CHANGE
"Hi Joan, I just finished your latest book, Promises of Change. I loved it and I just wanted you to know it. The only problem was that I hated to see it end. I always am left wanting to know more about the characters lives, but I know that if I have patience you will be coming out within the year with another episode in the lives of the Covington community. I applaud you in including characters with storylines like Zachary, Randy and Ida. I felt they were important topics of today. I look forward to reading all of your upcoming books. I love the characters especially the ladies and their dilemmas. May you have a most blessed New Year and may God give you much deserved health and happiness in it." ~ BR
In Covington, life seems settled into blissful domesticity. Happily married now, Hannah and Max together nurture the parkland they saved from developers. But their peaceful life is shattered when Max's estranged son, Zachary, returns from India with his pregnant wife, Sarina. Soon there will be a new baby in Covington, and Hannah and Sarina bond while shopping in preparation for the blessed event. But Hannah worries about the rift that still exists between Zachary and his father. Can it possibly be repaired? Despite her instant affection for Sarina -- and for baby Sarah when she arrives -- Hannah worries that Zachary's return may cause more heartache than joy. Has their quiet peace fled forever?
Interwoven with the continued stories of Grace, Amelia, and others who have joined their circle, this beautiful and touching tale is a moving addition to the Covington series, sure to be cherished by readers new and old.
