When perfection turns to panic an isolated couple must learn to walk by faith.

Imagine living in a quaint, beach-front cottage on the Hawaiian island of Maui. You have an amazing job, combined with the pleasure of working from home. Lunch breaks become a daily picnic on the sand. Dessert is always included because of your marriage to a famous pastry chef. Life could not be any better. Or so it seems…

French-born, Nikki Sabine Moueix travels to Hawaii for a special work assignment, but the job of writing an article about a famous Swiss pastry chef generates more than a magazine piece. They fall in love, get married, and Nikki Moueix becomes Mrs. Ruggiero Delémont.

When another assignment calls for Nikki to spend three weeks in France, Ruggiero’s schedule prevents him from joining her. She travels alone, advancing straight into danger. After a threatening confrontation, Nikki wakes up in a French hospital with no knowledge of her past. After she fails to check in, Ruggiero panics and pushes for an immediate investigation. But as he closes in, Nikki’s new found friend moves her to another city. It becomes a game of hide and seek with Nikki as the prize.

CIRCUMVENT allows readers to form a bond with Nikki as they yearn for her to remember. They will cheer for Ruggiero and his relentless determination to locate his beloved wife. This is a story about two people who never lose their faith in God, and find amazing friends to help them along the way.

Author Bio – When Virginia Heath was a little girl it took her ages to fall asleep, so she made up stories in her head to help pass the time while she was staring at the ceiling. As she got older, the stories became more complicated, sometimes taking weeks to get to the happy ending. Then one day, she decided to embrace the insomnia and start writing them down. Despite that, it still takes her forever to fall asleep.

Muddy Hands, Sudsy Hands

Author: Christine Prill

Illustrator: John Konecyn

My Review

With the current emphasis on hand-washing and protection from viruses, we are reminded of what our mothers always told us: Washing hands the right way will help us to stay healthier and keep germs away from our mouth and face.

Muddy Hands, Sudsy Hands is a charming book for young children that will make a parent’s job easier. The story is about a little boy who loves to play outside and get dirty. His parents tell him that he must wash his hands before he eats. He imagines sitting down to his meal with dirt, mud, and germs on his hands. He realizes that this would be terrible.

The little boy washes his hands and his mother reminds him to count to twenty to get them good and clean. After washing and rinsing well, the little boy sits down to delicious pancakes.

The rhyming in the book is well written and the artwork is crisp and cheerful. The characters have very expressive faces and the backgrounds are lovely. Young children will really enjoy having this book read to them.
