Lost Christmas Memories by Dana Mentink

Romance, Adventure, Suspense

Lost Christmas Memories by Dana Mentink is a romantic Christian suspense that will have your heart racing as you hunt for clues to fill in the missing pieces.

The novel has the theme of searching. There is a search to regain a snapshot in time as well as searches to belong. Being hurt and excluded in our pasts are heavy burdens to carry. Living with our eye on the past prevents us from enjoying the present. We need to give our burdens and our pasts to the One who can make all things new.

This links to the theme of trust. After a crime is committed, suspicion needs to find an outlet. As the net widens and more ‘coincidences’ of bad luck happen, the question of trust looms large.

Sometimes we want to step backwards and live a ‘safe’ life. God does not want us to settle for ‘safe’, He wants us to place our lives in His hands and trust Him to guide us through all the seasons of life.

Names are important. The use of a nickname signifies warmth and closeness, giving an air of belonging. There are some delightful dialogue exchanges between the lead characters.

Lost Christmas Memories has something for everyone – romance, adventure and suspense. Grab a copy today. You will not be disappointed.

Guest Post from Dana

Writing this book was bittersweet for me. It was lovely to finally be able to tell youngest Thorn brother Keegan’s story, but I sure am sorry to say goodbye to this series! It was such fun to write about these four kinsmen and the family bonds that held them together through all manner of murder and mayhem! Here at Mentink Manor, we have recently sent a bear cub away to college for the first time. It feels like I have lost a limb now that my Boo Boo is gone! Fortunately, we will enjoy having her home for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. Though it won’t be a cozy country Christmas like it is for Keegan (we live in a city of 80,000 here in Northern, CA) we will be thrilled to have all our family home to celebrate together (Mama Bear, Papa Bear, two cubs, a naughty terrier, and a senior citizen box turtle!) I hope you enjoy this last installment in the Gold Country Cowboy series. I am sending along our best wishes for a blessed holiday season, from our Mentink household to yours!
