Chautona lives and writes in California's Mojave Desert with her husband Kevin, nine children, and three grandchildren. When not lost in another world with her imaginary friends, she home educates her children, enjoys a variety of hobbies, and glances longingly at her trusty laptop, Roger.

Features & Highlights

  • He’s learning what it means to fall in love with Jesus.
  • She’s falling in love with a man she thinks is off-limits, and it’s breaking her heart.
  • The song says that when two people from two different worlds come together, those worlds collide. Hope Senior is determined to blend them instead—if she possibly can. She’s already lost two of the people closest to her. If her friend never embraces faith in Jesus, she isn’t sure she can bear it.
  • For Jay Brown, meeting Hope opened up a world he’d never thought he’d want to enter. Then again, taking things on faith has never been one of his strengths.
  • As their fledgling friendship grows into a richer, deeper one, Hope and Jay find themselves exploring more than the differences in Indian and American cultures. It becomes a journey of faith… for both of them.
  • Discovering Hope—find out what Brigadoon, saris, epic laser tag games, and Jesus have in common.

Havig has talent

It takes talent to be able to write Christian fiction that is not preachy but is still inspiring and fun. There is some tough stuff in here,but it is handled beautifully and realistically, and with a touch of grace. And there is fun stuff that will make you smile and even laugh. Great book.

WOW! I'm just blown away...

I've never read anything by this author before and happened to catch this novel for free. I still cannot believe how refreshing and realistic this story was! Chautona Havig's dialogue and character development were nothing short of masterful. Christian romances so often fall flat with me, either preachy to the exclusion of all else or the characters are so me-me-me I want to gag. But Hope and Jay just seemed real; funny, caring and mature despite (or maybe because of) their troubles. And can we possibly read more about them in a book about Kirky? Hint, hint, please? :)
