The Weather Girls: Sunny " by Jennifer Lynn Cary is Book 1 in this new series. Jennifer Lynn Cary is a new to me author and I was excited to read this Christian Historical Fiction Genre. 

The time is 1970 in Indiana and we are introduced to Sunny Day and her 2 sisters, Stormy and Windy Day. This book is mostly about Sunny Day. The day isn't going well for Sunny as her date stands her up on Valentine's Day and she loses her job. Sunny stands tall and just moves on and begins a new business venture. Her sisters are helping her and along comes Pat Whitcomb, the son of a Wealthy family, to help also. Pat and Sunny literally bumped into one another one day. Pat has always wanted to do something for the community and he finds out about Sunny new venture and wants to help. Pat finds himself attracted to Sunny. Will Sunny's new business venture succeed? Will there be romance between Pat and Sunny? 

I really enjoyed this story. The 1970's was the decade I was born in and the book really had some GREAT nostalgia elements to it. The Author did a wonderful job at connecting all the characters in the book. Sunny is a determined woman who wasn't going to let life changes get in her way. The help from her sisters showed Family connections are strong. Pat Whitcomb is a hardworking lawyer who has great values. The Relationship between Sunny and Pat grew slowly and wonderfully,  I really like how the book is filled with Christian Values and Faith. I dove into the book and didn't stop until the end!! I am Extremely excited about this series and very much looking forward to the next books! FANTASTIC BOOK! 

 

Jennifer Lynn Cary likes to say you can take the girl out of Indiana, but you can’t take the Hoosier out of the girl. Now transplanted to the Arizona desert, this direct descendant of Davy Crockett and her husband of forty years enjoy time with family where she shares tales of her small town heritage and family legacies with their grandchildren. She is the author of The Crockett Chronicles series and The Relentless series as well as the stand-alone novella Tales of the Hob Nob Annex Café and her recent split-time novel The Traveling Prayer Shawl.

 

More from Jennifer Lynn

I was born in the 50’s, grew up in the 60’s and 70’s, and married in 1980. I relate to K.T. Oslin’s song “80’s Ladies” a little too well. 😉

Though we moved from Kokomo, Indiana in 1972, it always will be my hometown.

A few years ago my sister headed up a plan to have an annual Cousin’s Reunion in Kokomo. Two cousins came from Ohio and my sister and I came from the west to converge on our family who still call Kokomo home. Each trip back reminded me of how much I loved growing up there.

One day Bobby Hebb’s “Sunny” came on the Oldies station and caught my attention. Then I remembered the songs “Stormy” and “Windy” and wondered what it might be like for girls with that sort of name—especially if their surname was Day. Would their dispositions match their names? Why would their parents give them those names? The questions kept coming and I fell in love with the whole storyline.

The best part was putting the house I grew up in into the book(s). Yep, as you read the story, Hazel Day’s house is set up mostly like the one where I grew up only I added a den and an extra bedroom upstairs.

Ferguson House is based on the Seiberling Mansion—I love that place and tour it every chance I can when I get back to Kokomo. It’s amazing.

I also included favorite landmarks. Scotty’s Drive-In saw a lot of me in my early teen years. Great for grabbing a coke and not that far from either school or home.

The funny thing about memories is that they can blur and morph over time. Thankfully someone from my hometown has put together a Facebook page where I can ask questions and get more than enough answers.

Many locales I remember no longer exist, so writing about them helps them live on.

I hope you will check out Sunny and 1970 Kokomo and come back for the rest of The Weather Girls trilogy.

Abundant blessings!
