But she has some hard decisions to make, and worries if Luke will ever accept her and her baby. Kelsey must come to terms with the past, and trust there's a future with Luke in God's plan…

Hi Irene:
ReplyDeleteI’ve been reading posts about character names and I just have to ask you this: did you name the hero Luke because he is a physician and Turner because he is going to turn the heroine’s life around? And is the baby’s name Grace?
BTW: I love the “Child of Grace” cover. I bought “The Hero Next Door” and “Tides of Hope” because I really like stories set in resort areas near water. I very much enjoyed reading “The Hero Next Door” but it seems a lot like the plot of “Child of Grace”. This has me wondering how the stories differ.

Vince,
ReplyDeleteIrene had trouble responding so here's what she sent to me.
Hi, Vince. Sorry I had to pass this response through someone else. I
couldn't get into the comments section of the site.
To answer your question about Luke's name--wow, you saw a lot more in it
than I did. Then again, maybe my choice was subliminal! And yes, Grace is
the baby's name.
I don't think you'll find many similarities between Child of Grace and The
Hero Next Door. The stories and plots are very, very different. I'd love
to hear what you think after you read Child of Grace! Thanks for
commenting.
