About the Author
For the past eight years, I’ve had the joy of teaching and writing Bible studies for Rooted Path Ministries in Southern Oregon, guiding women through God’s Word.
My debut novel, Where It Bends, a Christian suspense story, marks a new venture—one born from a deeply personal journey through trials that tested my faith.
Nine years ago, a serious heart scare shook my family, prompting my children to ask profound questions: Is God good when life darkens? Can we trust Him through confusion and pain? Are we safe when life twists unexpectedly? These questions lingered, shaping this story. Last summer, my mother’s stage 3 cancer diagnosis and my father’s sudden death three weeks later reignited my resolve to complete this honest exploration of faith under fire.
Originally written for my family, Where It Bends became a calling I believe the Lord intended for a wider audience. I pray it strengthens your heart, offering hope and courage as you navigate life’s bends.
