I also have my much beloved Grandmother’s wedding ring and it’s one of the most important of my possessions. Love the premise of the mother of your heroine telling HER story. Just lovely!

Deb Salonen

Thank you, Stephanie. While I was writing it, I kept thinking how wonderful it would have been if my mother had written down her story. That is a treasure of another kind.

Shari

Can’t wait to read her Forever Gift, love the cover.
My most treasured gift is my Grandma’s wedding ring. I did take the stones and put them in another setting with my diamond from my wedding. I now have a beautiful ring.

Annette Mardis

Sounds like a nice story, Deb. Congrats on the holiday release. Love the cover.

Deb Salonen

Hope you enjoy it, Shari. It was fun to look back at these characters’ lives.

Your ring sounds perfect. How special and unique! A great memory your daughter is probably hoping to inherit. 😉

Deb Salonen

Thanks, Annette! I love the cover, too. My friend, Rogenna Brewer, did it for me. I asked her to match the branding of the other Big Sky Mavericks books, but make it look from the ’70s, too. No small task, but she nailed it.

Deb Salonen

I do, too, Denise. Tule has sooo many beautiful new holiday books out. I keep buying because a day or two during the holidays to do nothing but read is going to be my gift to myself.

Deb Salonen

Not on FB…you rogue!!! I meant post the buy link to the original Rudolph here so I can see what it looks like. I’m tickled, too, I missed you at the last meeting I attended.

Denise

I love Christmas stories! My grandma’s wedding ring is one of my most treasured forever gifts.

Hi! Read and enjoyed Bailey and Paul’s story! Cant wait to read this new one.

A forever gift is something that goes beyond a physical object. An experience, or a memory can last forever. I think kids are the ultimate forever gift. LOL

Deb Salonen

Good answer, Melissa. I agree. Memories and being able to share oral histories with your children and grandchildren–these are precious gifts.

Hope you enjoy Louise and OC’s little story.

JoAnne, you’re a doll. Thanks for saying that about Until He Met Rachel. I wrote that under such difficult circumstances (my sister, who was my rock and dearest friend was dying). That book is very special to me.

I can’t believe you have great-grans. Share the link, if you see this message. I’d love to see it.

Deb –
Even now as I sit here, I am wearing my “Yes, it’s true. I’m not on Facebook. I’m just tickled I can answer your blog!

Hey, Deb –
Good to see you. Until He Met Rachel is one of my all time favorites – a real keeper. Although my keeper shelf is already crowded with a few other of yours. I’m reading Nobody’s Cowboy right now, when my waking hours leave me time to breathe. And, I’m with you over the let’s do Christmas right now, and it’s still 110 degrees outside. This year I’m sending away for copies of the original Rudolph to give my children, grans, and great-grans. Because it’s a mail order present, I’ll try to get my order in before Thanksgiving.
Hope to see you soon.

What a great job, Sharon! You really are a terrific host. Thanks so much for inviting me. I really wish you weren’t soooo many states away! But I admire your sense of adventure–and, of course, I understand about being close to your kids.

Deb

Deb Salonen

No worry about that. You’re great.

I just checked Amazon and my new book isn’t up yet. I used to get freaked out, but anymore I’ve learned to roll with it. Hey, at least, it’s not Christmas Eve. It’ll show up eventually. 😉

Deb

Deb Salonen

But it’s up now. Good job, Amazon. 😉
