Today on the blog, I’m talking virtual book tour newness as Catholic writer Ellen Gable’s novel Julia’s Gifts is out now.
Julia’s Gifts, a World War I romance, is Ellen Gable’s 8th book and I am delighted to be part of her virtual book tour! I’ve enjoyed the straightforward prose of her O’Donovan books that is not overly-descriptive yet brings the reader to historical places and situations. Her characters are realistically motivated and the romance elements are clean but satisfying for anyone looking for a more traditional romance about souls coming together and embracing spirituality as well as Earthly love.
Julie’s Gifts is the first of Gable’s new Great War, Great Love trilogy. You can find more information on Full Quiver Publishing and purchase through Amazon.
As a young girl, Julia began buying gifts for her future spouse, a man whose likeness and personality she has conjured up in her mind, a man she calls her “beloved.” Soon after the United States enters the Great War, Julia impulsively volunteers as a medical aid worker, with no experience or training. Disheartened by the realities of war, will Julia abandon the pursuit of her beloved? Will her naïve ‘gift scheme’ distract her from recognizing her true “Great Love?” From Philadelphia to war-torn France, follow Julia as she transitions from unworldly young woman to compassionate volunteer.
