By far the most visited town in the Palestinian Territories, Bethlehem, is famous for being the place of Jesus Christ's birth and has been celebrated in Christmas carols and hymns through the centuries. The major tourist attraction here is the Church of the Nativity, and for anyone who has ever celebrated Christmas, it is the top place to visit.

The Church of the Nativity is one of the oldest working churches in existence today. The first Church was built by the Roman Emperor Constantine in the 4th century AD, over the grotto where Mary gave birth to Jesus.

Wondering where those shepherds watched their flocks by night? The fields around the village of Beit Sahour are widely recognized by Christian believers as the site of the Shepherd's Field in which the birth of Jesus was announced by the angels.

If the Nazis stole your house, wouldn’t you be justified in stealing it back now that the war is over?
When Tamar Feldman admits to her husband, Daniel, and mentor, Neelie Visser, that she broke into her former home, they scold her for taking such a risk. Tamar is tired of being careful. She’s tired of living in the present, as if the past doesn’t matter. But the painting of the violin girl in her former bedroom draws her back again and again. She finally steals the painting to return it to its former owner. Now maybe this small act of justice will help Tamar to start to heal.

When Neelie sees the painting, she reveals a secret about it that will take the three of them on a quest to Amsterdam and Paris to find justice, forgiveness, and new beginnings.

What Tamar doesn’t realize is the past isn’t finished with her yet; in fact, it’s as close as the walls in her house and even follows her to Paris.

Consider for a moment - What book touched you so deeply it changed your life?
Mine would have to be the third book in a series I wrote for The Silver Cross Ranch Legacy Series. The main character, Mavis McCall, is adapted from my own mother’s experiences while serving during World War II, and the battles that continued long after she returned home and attempted to settle into the life of wife and mother.
When working on The Legacy of Mavis McCall, I was taken back to memories of my childhood. My mother served as a sergeant in the  Women’s Army Corp during World War II, and still fought battles in her head. In doing research for the book, I was drawn into the lives of other women who, like Mom, carried hard-fought and hard-won memories while the war still raged in the recesses of their minds. With the assistance of the research, I was able to look at Mom’s difficult struggles in a new light. It helped me to understand her, and I was able to finally come to peace with our relationship.
