JustRead Tours Blog Tour: I'll Be Home by Sara Davison, Darlene L. Turner, Helena Smrcek, and Melanie Stevenson

I'll Be Home JustRead Blog Tour

Welcome to the Blog Tour for I'll Be Home by Sara Davison, Darlene L. Turner, Helena Smrcek, and Melanie Stevenson, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!



I'll Be Home

Title: I'll Be Home
Authors:
Sara Davison, Darlene L. Turner, Helena Smrcek, & Melanie Stevenson
Publisher:
Independent (Fab Four Press)
Release Date:
October 29, 2024
Genre:
Contemporary Christmas anthology

With chaos and confusion all around them, can they find their way home this Christmas? 

The people in these four stories are all searching for something—an escaped convict, a job promotion from a love interest, connection to a lost parent, answers across time. 

Christmas should be a time of wonder and celebration, but the obstacles each faces seem insurmountable. Even, at times, life-threatening. 

Perhaps they will find what they are seeking during this season of miracles and hope. Or maybe, with God’s help, they will discover that the longing of their hearts takes them to places—and people—they didn’t even know they’d been searching for.  

I’ll Be Home is a collection of four stories of faith, hope, love, (and trains) that will warm your heart, encourage your soul, and draw you home this Christmas.  



I really enjoy reading Christmas themed books. I also enjoy collections of stories all in one book. I'll Be Home by Sara Davison, Darlene L. Turner, Helena Smrcek, & Melanie Stevenson is one that I most currently read. 

The first story is Mistletoe and Mayhem in the Rockies by Darlene Turner. It is a Suspense and Romance genre story. I LOVE this type of genre and the storyline was a real page turner. The next story is Love Across Time by Helena Smrcek. The Dual Timeline for this story is a genre that I have come to enjoy over the past few years and I was Soo intrigued by the story set during wartime and present time. The 3rd story is When My Heart Belongs by Melanie Stevenson. The story is a Christian Romance story and has a strong faith message in it. The 4th story is Just a Gilbert Blythe Kind of Girl by Sara Davison. I was really excited to read this one as it is  a Anne of Green Gables type of writing. Anne of Green Gables is one of favorite books and I really loved the similarities in this story, yet it was so different then Anne of Green Gables. 

WOW, what a heartwarming collection of stories! I started reading and couldn't put it down. I read 2 stories the first day and then I did put it down as I wanted to make sure that I really enjoyed all the stories  throughly. I felt that if I would have read all 4 stories in one day, I would've run all the stories together as one. Each story by each individual author truly is a gem. I have to say that Just a Gilbert Blythe Kind of Girl by Sara Davison was probably my favorite of the 4 Novellas. All of the stories are not Christmas themed but have a strong Faith Based message. l HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Christian Novellas and stories with a Christmas Theme. GREAT BOOK!
