Hello, readers! I’m Penny Zeller and I write Christian romance—mainly historicals, but a few contemporary romances are peppered in for good measure. I seek to honor my Lord and Savior with every book I write. My books are all happily-ever-afters and all include faith, humor, and memorable characters.

I’m so excited to be a part of Faithbooks. Today, in celebration of the release of my book, Love’s Promise, Book #4 in my Wyoming Sunrise Series, I wanted to share with you some fun tidbits about the individual books in the series.

• Love’s New Beginnings (Prequel) For this book, I had to research stagecoach rules in the 1800s for main character, Lydie’s, journey to Willow Falls in the Wyoming Territory. One such rule was no snoring on the stagecoach.
• Forgotten Memories (Book #1) The humorous scene with Louie, the Red Angus calf in the schoolhouse, was inspired by a real-life interview for one of my nonfiction books. 
• Dreams of the Heart (Book #2) John Mark Eliason has consistently rated at the top of the list for swoon-worthy male characters in this series. Who wouldn’t adore this handsome deputy? For this book, I researched the different tasks sheriffs undertook in the 1800s, including keeping the peace, collecting taxes, keeping the streets clear of dead animals, and cleaning up manure.
• When Love Comes (Book #3) I conducted a ton of research for this book, which includes reader favorites, Myrtle and Fern, the two aunts who cause quite a stir with their ornery antics. (By the way, don’t ever eat Aunt Myrtle’s huckleberry pie. Just sayin’.) I researched pie-eating contests, train robberies, and blacksmiths so I could craft handsome blacksmith, Tobias’s, character. Speaking of research… I discovered a story about a pie-eating contest in the late 1800s. During this contest, some unkind people decided to fill the pies with leather and nails. Yes, leather and nails. Needless to say, the perps were in a huge amount of trouble for their shenanigans.
• Love’s Promise (Book #4) Who doesn’t love a redeemed hero? Silas McFadden, my brawny and rugged main male character, along with dapper Caleb from Forgotten Memories, both fit this description. A touching scene between main female character, Amaya, and her grandmother was fully handwritten in the dentist’s office while waiting for my daughter.

Hi, Romance Readers! I'm Jennifer Hunt, author, editor, wife to my own swoony hero, and homeschool mom of four.

My books feature well-researched historical events, flawed but growing characters, sweet love stories, and distinctive Christian faith. If this sounds like what you enjoy, I'd encourage you to check out my Christmas novel The Unbroken Song, available in paperback, on Kindle Unlimited, or through Kindle for just $1.99!

Coming from opposite worlds, what could possibly unite them?

Rejected, frustrated, and no longer confident about God's plan for his life, John Sweet takes a year-long assignment in Atlanta, Georgia. The city is bustling with preparations for the Cotton States and International Exposition to be held in the autumn of 1895. Sarah Fuller is also new to the city but trying desperately to make a home for her lonely father and motherless little sister. When a special assignment for the Exposition puts John and Sarah in close contact, they discover that while their pasts are completely different, their future dreams are much the same. As their families create obstacles and opposition, will they be able to find a way forward together?

At Christmas 1945, with her family still reeling from the changes brought by the Second World War, "Grandma Sarah" tells her teenage granddaughter about the year that changed her life. Can her simple story bring the healing and perspective they both need to embrace a different future than they had planned?

This standalone Christmas prequel to the Sorrow and Song Trilogy will transport you back to a Victorian Christmas, when the world was very different, yet the same longing for peace and purpose resounded in every heart.

Are you as excited for autumn as I am? After a brutally hot summer here in north Georgia, I'm happy to have our AC cut off occasionally and plan my October baby's birthday trip to the pumpkin farm.
