Читать книгу A Hopeful Harvest - Ruth Logan Herne - Страница 9

Dear Reader,

I enjoyed writing this story because we all have so much to thank the Lord for, even in hard times.

I love blending faith and romance, and I love adding children into stories because they are the hope for the future. But Cleve was a big part of my love for this story.

The road of Alzheimer’s and dementia is not easy. It is nothing to be undertaken lightly. The scourge of Alzheimer’s runs in my husband’s family. His father, his grandfather, his uncles and all of his great-uncles had it. That makes this a personal experience for us as a new generation tiptoes into that age group.

I hope you loved Libby and Jax’s story. It was inspired when I read about this new treatment for PTSD developed by Frank Bourke to help post-9/11 victims. His work has been refined to help returning soldiers. When I read the positive results of the clinical trials, I saw my hero, Jackson Ingerson. The brain’s a funny thing. When one moment replays in our heads incessantly, it can mess with our emotional stability until we learn how to hit that mental off button without guilt.

Libby’s story hits close to home for me and so many people who come from dysfunctional families. It’s hard to live your life categorized by others’ actions, isn’t it? But she learns and rises above, and I just love her.

Thank you so much for reading this story. I love hearing from readers. You can email me at loganherne@gmail.com or through my website, ruthloganherne.com, and I love it when folks follow my friends page or author page on Facebook!

God bless you all, and I hope you love all of the Golden Grove, Washington, books.

With love,

Ruthy
