Bestselling author LOREE LOUGH once sang for her supper, performing across the U.S. and Canada. Now and then, she blows the dust from her 6-string to croon a tune or two, but mostly, she writes novels (nearly 7,000,000 copies in print) that have earned hundreds of industry and "Readers' Choice" awards, 4- and 5-star reviews, and 7 book-to-movie options. Her 117th book, HOME TO STAY (#2 in Kensington's "A Child Will Lead Them" Amish series) followed 50 HOURS (from PRPP). Look for her most recently-released series from Harlequin Heartwarming, and "A Child Will Lead Them" Amish series from Kensington. Loree enjoys sharing learned-the-hard-way lessons about the craft and the industry, and her comedic how-to approach makes her a favorite speaker at writers' organizations, book clubs, private and government institutions, and college and high school writing programs in the U.S. and abroad. You can connect with Loree at Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, and www.loreelough.com.
I defy anyone to start the beautifully written 50 Hours and to put it down or to go on with their own lives as they had before reading about the remarkable, emotional and insightful relationship between dying Aubrey and the lost Franco. As a recent widow myself, the strength, humor and respect between the main characters shot close to home, but delivered so much hope and love that even as I march forward to tomorrow, my perspective has altered---all to the positive. In her last days in this life, Aubrey finally lives out the dreams she's been too browbeaten by her mother and ex-husband to accomplish. She can only do this with help from Franco, who risks imprisonment to see her wish come true. Emerson said, "To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived, this is to have succeeded." Aubrey and Franco succeeded. Believe me when I say, THIS IS THE KIND OF BOOK THAT WINS PULITZER PRIZES. - Catherine Lanigan, Author of Romancing the Stone, The Jewel of the Nile, and over forty-five novels and non-fiction.Loree Lough's 50 HOURS is a poignant story that reminds us how precious life is, especially if our world has been turned upside down by cancer. But don't be fooled: This novel will leave readers feeling hopeful, no matter how hard the dreaded disease has hit them. - Jack Watts, award-winning author of 16 books, including "The Moon" series and Creating Trump Nation.
