RELEASE DAY: WHERE THE WALTZ WANES by yours truly!

 It's finally here! Book 5 of the Bethlehem Belle novella series, Where the Waltz Wanes, is yours today, out in both Kindle and paperback editions, plus KU for the series-binge-readers out there. 

This is a book for the eldest daughters who feel the weight of trying to keep everything together. This is a book for the burned out, for the ones struggling to be "enough." It's a rally cry that it's okay to depend on community and to heal instead of putting up walls.

ABOUT THE BOOK

It’s wedding season for the gals of Bethlehem, and Jules Meyer is one of the brides-to-be. Not to mention Joy and Kylie, soon-to-be sisters-in-law. As Jules serves as a bridesmaid for both friends, she plans to fly under the radar with a simple wedding of her own before her brother, Paul, hears anything about it. But when he arrives home, asking for another second chance, she’s thrown off-balance. It’s happened a thousand times, and she’s not ready to let him dismantle the careful life she’s built without him.

With Paul’s suspicious turnaround, wedding bells ringing, and no less than fifteen friend crises piling up, Jules finds herself adrift and overwhelmed with troubles not even her fiancé can sort out. Are second chances possible, or are they just a disaster waiting to happen?

Where the Waltz Wanes is Book 5 in the Bethlehem Belle novellas, celebrating the people you can lean on when the going gets tough, second chances, redemption, and a whole lot of healing.

This is the final book in the Bethlehem Belle novella series. It's been three years since I wrote Where the Last Verse Ends, and I'm so grateful to everyone who stuck around for the full series. 

If you've been keeping up with my writerly updates, you're probably wondering what happened to BB6 -- Bethlehem Belle #6, and rightfully so. I planned on writing and releasing another Christmas novella, but after wrestling with that plot for months (almost a full year), I decided that I was struggling because it wasn't necessary. There were too many loose ends I was trying to cram into the book, from too many POVs that didn't make sense for the character I chose to focus on (or any of the others). Since all of those loose ends were introduced in Where the Waltz Wanes, however, and Jules expounded on them a great deal throughout the book, it only made sense that those stories, those loose ends, be wrapped up with an epilogue. And that epilogue starts out with "I was right." 

It's a fun, lighthearted way to end the series, and I hope I served readers well by making this decision.

If you're a series binge-reader, you can nab all of the novellas this holiday season on Kindle Unlimited.
