IT’S ONLY FICTION…BUT COULD IT HAPPEN?

Leave a comment

I’m excited to announce that my MESSENGERS series is being re-released on July 5th by my publisher. I love this series. t’d never written a dystopian (futuristic) novel before so it was a learning experience for me. Here’s a little bit about the series. Read to the end for a surprise!

My new MESSENGERS series is fiction…but could it happen?

Life is perfect in NewAm: no crime; no poverty; no war; no discrimination, but also no God. The government decides where a citizen works, where a citizen lives, and how a citizen thinks, even though the Guardians would deny this.

Life is perfect until the moment you wonder…is there a God?

God will not be defined nor confined by man’s law.

Magdalena Denton is an unlikely messenger. She’s grown up in the godless world of NewAm where even saying the name of Jesus is a crime. But when God has a message, he will always find a MESSENGER.

All three books in the series are releasing at the same time so you don’t have to wait for these exciting stories.

MESSENGER (Book 1) Magdalena Denton is an unlikely messenger. She’s grown up in the godless world of NewAmerica where even saying the name of Jesus is a crime. But when God has a message, he will always find a messenger.

UNCITIZEN (Book 2) Magdalena Denton’s bright future is gone. She’s been deemed an UnCitizen because she refuses to deny God. Her new-found faith is challenged as she struggles to stay alive, but God promises to never forsake his children.

EXILE (Book 3) After a daring escape, Magdalena and friends face life in the Empty Lands—even more hostile than imagined. They discover that when you walk in faith, miracles become a reality.

We’d like to believe that something like this could never happen in America, land of the free, but in my lifetime I’ve seen so many of our freedoms slowly being stripped away. A little here, a little there. Not enough to notice until it’s too late.

Yes, it’s fiction, but could it happen?

So here’s the surprise. I’ve written a short story about the beginnings of New Am. Over the next few weeks, I’ll share a few chapters to get you ready for the Messenger series.

NEW BOOK ALERT! MESSENGER

I’m so excited to let everyone know that the first in my MESSENGER Series will be releasing on February 29!  As of now, it will be a 3-book series, the second will be UNCITIZEN and the third, EXILE.
This story has rattled around in my brain for a long…long time. It’s not my usual suspense but it has a lot of suspense and action in it. It’s a dystopian novel.  In case you don’t know what that means, it’s when a novel is set in an imagined society where there is great suffering or injustice. So that definitely means lots of action and suspense.
Magdalena Denton is an unlikely messenger since she’s grown up in the godless country of NewAmerica where all religion has been banned even saying the name of God is punishable by death! But when God has a message, he will always find a MESSENGER!

Life is perfect in NewAmerica. No crime. No poverty. No war. No discrimination.

Life is perfect as long as you’re a loyal citizen.

Life is perfect as long as you follow The Guardian Rules without question.

All religion has been banned, even uttering the name of God is a crime punishable by death. Magdalena Denton is an unlikely messenger, but when a patient braves the consequences to tell her The Guardians have deceived everyone about God, she’s determined to discover the truth.

Life is perfect in NewAmerica until the moment you wonder…is there a God?

 

Magdalena lives in a society that is controlled by The Guardians. The Guardians are in control…of every aspect of a person’s life.  In return, loyal citizens are provided with all that they need for a good life; housing; clothing, food; and entertainment. Magdalena knows she should be happy, but she’s not. When a patient tells her that God is real and he loves her, she wants to know the truth–no matter how dangerous it is. And it’s very dangerous!

Even though I’ve classified the story as YA novel (young adult), but it’s not just for the young. In fact, it’s a timeless story that people of any age will enjoy. There’s two aspects to MESSENGER. There’s the literal plot with lots of suspense, action, and a little romance. But then there’s the spiritual lessons that are a part of the story as well.
