Welcome to the Blog Tour & Giveaway for A Southern Season: Four Stories From a Front Porch Swing by Eva Marie Everson, Claire Fullerton, Linda W. Yezak, and Ane Mulligan, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours! Pull up a front porch swing and enjoy learning more about this collection from 4 great authors 🙂
MY REVIEW:
This collection is about all stories told on a lovely porch swing – one per season… winter, Spring, Summer, fall. Each novella (short story) is about eight or nine chapters long (about 50 pages) which is just long enough to get to know the characters and establish a good plot.

Very easy to read “southern” reading. I liked all 4 stories-some better than others. This would be an easy book to read in the car or on vacation.

I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

ABOUT THE BOOK

a southern seasonTitle: A Southern Season: Four Stories From a Front Porch Swing Authors: Eva Marie Everson, Claire Fullerton, Linda W. Yezak, Ane Mulligan Publisher: Firefly Southern Fiction Release Date: November 1, 2018 Genre: Inspirational Southern/Women’s Fiction Four seasons. Four stories. Each one set in the enchanting world of the South. These are the kinds of stories your grandmother told you from a front porch swing.Ice Melts in Spring by Linda W. Yezak When Kerry Graham’s boss forces her to return to the Gulf of Mexico where her husband drowned years ago, she feels only spring’s chill and not the warmth of the Texas sun. Can the joy of a reclusive author and the compassion of a shrimp-boat preacher thaw Kerry’s frigid heart? Lillie Beth in Summer by Eva Marie Everson With the untimely death of his wife, Dr. James Gillespie believes God has abandoned him. He also believes he’s never met anyone like the young widow Lillie Beth, whose beloved Granny lies dying at home, and who sees a God who sweeps hope through a farmhouse window. Can a young woman whose husband died in Vietnam restore a faith that is all but dead. Through an Autumn Window by Claire Fullerton Because her larger than life mother Daphne Goodwyn is dead, forty-year-old Cate returns to Memphis with one thought in mind: something always goes wrong at a Southern funeral. But surrounded by the
well-mannered society that raised her, the nostalgic rites of a three-day, autumn mourning bring the unexpected gift of the end of sibling rivalry. A Magnolia Blooms in Winter by Ane Mulligan With Broadway stardom within her reach, Morgan James returns home in winter to help an old friend. Maybe it s just nostalgia, but when she sees him again, an old flame rekindles. When she’s called back to NYC to take the lead in a new musical, will fame be worth losing the man she loves?
