I met Allison Bottke a couple of years ago through a design project, and quickly discovered the unique blend of ambition and talent that lies within this blonde bundle of creativity. Allison never ceases to amaze me with the ability she has to reach out her audience and inspire them with just the right words. As a woman who's recently entered her forties, I'm thrilled to find someone who's writing for the mature Christian woman--someone who understands that life begins at forty and doesn't end at fifty :) I'm even more pleased that she brought Boomer Babes Rock! here to Christian Women Online just a few months ago. We're excited to be the first to announce that Allison has just partnered with David C. Cook Publishers (formerly Cook Communications Ministries) to write a trilogy of contemporary Hip-lit novels for baby boomer women. The first installment in the VA VA VA BOOM! series will release in 2008.
One Little Secret releases later this month, but it's available for order online now at amazon.com. In addition, Allison is offering one in our book draw this month, so be sure to enter! Readers were introduced to Ursula Rhoades, the lead character in One Little Secret, in Allison's debut novel, A Stitch in Time. Mix American Idol & Grammy & Hollywood & " just a housewife" Ursula Rhoades, for fun boomer fiction at its best! A Hollywood fairy tale with all the pleasures of escapist literature mixed with gentle lessons on using the talents God has given you, One Little Secret is about the power of sacrifice, self-esteem, and the value of being "just a housewife." It's about making dreams come true--no matter how old you are! Ursula Rhoades is a fun and hip Boomer Babe who is refreshingly different from most heroines in today's genre of Christian fiction, offset by a rock star male protagonist who is captivating and gets more likable and deeper as the story goes on. It's just plain fun to watch these characters interact. Don't miss Allison's newest "hip lit" fiction! Allison will be conducting an International Blog Tour for the release of ONE LITTLE SECRET throughout the month of August. If you have a blog and would like to host Allison any day in the month of August, please contact her blog tour coordinator, Heather Diane Tipton to schedule a day. The blog tour will take place starting on August 1, and Allison will wrap it up with her final stop at my blog on August 31st. To read a list of blog addresses where Allison will be appearing, you can visit: Boomer Babes Rock! website and follow the link to the Boomer Blog Tour. Hope you can join us!
