Autumn Changes

Seasons of Cherryvale #3

by Beverly Nault

Along with shorter days and cooler nights, big changes are stirring up Cherryvale! While the trees along the CherryPath exchange summer-green garments to autumn’s crimson and gold, Grace and Maggie scurry to prepare for the town’s annual Harvest Festival, but spar over how to help pop star Tiffany Lane adapt to her new lifestyle and adoptive hometown. A surprise visitor—or two—spice up the town like cinnamon in Grace’s pumpkin walnut muffins just in time for "The Scrapbook’s" preview opening. The second book in The Seasons of Cherryvale, Autumn Changes continues the stories of the friendly folks and charming small town introduced in the much loved Fresh Start Summer. Will peaceful Cherryvale be the same after all the changes blown in on the autumn wind?

About the author

My first story was published at the age of 8. It was a compelling romp about a line (don't judge me) who wanted to march in a parade. My mom stapled the pages together and I was hooked on writing from that day. Decades later, I still scribble and daydream until the characters refuse to stay quietly in my head any longer. Fortunately for my mom, we've moved beyond crayon drawings on Big Chief notebook paper. Thanks, Mom!

Beverly, I loved and enjoyed this book so very much !!!
Gracie and Maggie spar about how to convince young star, Tiffany Lane, to reform her wild ways.
These three main characters came alive by the way you wrote about them.
Through the twists and turns and ups and downs they make it through. I laughed and cried and laughed some more.
This is a perfect book to read during this time of fall season.
I urge you to get this book, sit in your favorite chair and cover-up in your favorite blanket with hot tea or coca and enjoy yourself. Trust me you will not be disappointed!

Beverly you definitely have a gift of writing from God and I am so tankful you wrote this book and sent it to me to read and review…I would LOVE to read all your books and do the same in return.

I HIGHLY recommend this book for any women from teenagers and up….
What a JOY to read!!!

I will be sharing it with my sister who I know will love it too!!!

Beverly did it again! This time she grabs you and drags you right into the Cherryvale action! I LOVED getting to know Maggie and Grace better after reading Hearts Unlocked. Beverly's writing about Faith is real and touching. This is a GREAT portrayal of God's unending, freely given LOVE! I cried and laughed again and again. I feel as though the 'Valers and I are old friend. Hearts Unlocked is timelined after Autumn Changes, but my advice/recommendation to you is to get both and read how you choose. I read Hearts Unlocked first and didn't regret it one bit. :) A wonderful, fun story with love, forgiveness, and redemption! I had issues with the editing (some words repeated and other typos, but don't let that stop you from reading)

My song choices for this book are: "How Great Thou Art" by Carrie Underwood and "Fix Me Jesus" by Queen Latifa

Exodus 14:14

Grace and Maggie are best friends with too many irons in the fire. A surprise visitor or two, a romance to help along and parties to plan keep these two ladies hopping. But they will be reminded that God is in control and they can't be the catalyst for everything in town.

This is the first book in the series that I read and I'll admit to quite a bit of confusion. There were quite a few characters and stories to try to keep track of. But despite this I loved the story. The writer has the gift of capturing the feelings of love and community and drawing the reader in. I will definitely have to check out the previous books.

I received this book free of charge in exchange for my honest review.
