I managed to find the entire series(6) in time for my daughter-in-laws birthday last year. The new book, Promise Me Texas, in this series will be out the middle of November. A few weeks ago, Jodie Thomas was appearing here at Barnes & Noble. I was fortunate enough to personally meet this lovely lady. She is so pleasant and gracious.
Jodie Thomas is a New York Times and USA Today best selling author. With a degree in Family Studies, Mrs. Thomas is a marriage and family counselor by education, a background that enables her to write about family dynamics. Honored in 2002 as a Distinguished Alumni in Texas Tech University in Lubbock. She enjoys interacting with students on the West Texas A&M University campus where she currently serves as Writer in Residence. When she is not working on a novel, she enjoys traveling with her husband.
If you have not read any of her novels, you are really missing out. I bought two different books at the signing that were not in a series. They are great and ones you do not want to put down. You can find her and keep up with her latest work at www.jodithomas.com

What fun to meet Jodie Thomas, an author you enjoy reading!
it's great Barnes and Noble (even the ones in lesser known towns) gets authors to come by from time to time.
How exciting... great photo of you with her!!!
how neat that you got to meet her.
Hi LV, I have not read any books written by Jodie Thomas but now I am intrigued by your recommendation. How awesome that you were able to meet her and have a photo taken as well. I love the photo and your story about meeting her. Lucky you. She must be a very kind person as well as a very good writer to be so generous with her time. I hope our library has some of her books to borrow.
We too have been gone and it is good to be home again. I did visit your blue Mon post, although belated. Yesterday I just rested up all day.
Take care,
love, Jeanne
How neat that you got to meet Jodi Thomas... That is not always possible --but you really lucked up getting to meet her. Did your daughter-in-law get to meet her also? Hope so.
Hugs,

I like learning about regional writers. Thanks for the tip. Here's one for you, also from Texas. Sue Seibert. She writes about the Mineral Wells/Palo Pinto County area of Texas.
How fun to meet a favorite author! I'll look up about her books.
