The Rose Ring

 

 

by Lucie Ulrich
Congratulations, Lucie!
As you’ll note from the comments (below) left during the voting, Lucie’s
fans simply adore her.
Lucie, welcome to the family.
ABOUT THE BOOK:
With a will that reads like a piece of
fiction, the return of his long-lost brother, and the possibility of losing
the
family ranch, Micah Cooper calls on high school friend, Sky Baxter, to bail
him
out of a bad situation.
Though her brain tells her no, Sky’s heart says yes. She
accepts Micah’s in-name-only proposal, knowing it’s unlikely anything
permanent
will come of it. She’s been in love with him since the ninth grade, and if
he
hasn’t figured it out by now, there’s little chance he ever will.
When an unexpected kiss ignites a spark, giving Micah hope
for a possible future with Sky, a tragic accident threatens to take it all
away. Torn between following his heart, doing the right thing, and forgiving
the past, Micah is lost in a whirlwind of pain and emotions. Will he make it
through the next two years, or will a long-kept family secret be the
undoing of
them all?

ABOUT THE
AUTHOR:
Lucie Ulrich took her time becoming a writer. Not much
of a reader as a child, writing was of no interest to

her–until she joined a
church drama team. The desire to write a skit, and not simply act out
someone
else’s was so strong, that once she started, she couldn’t seem to stop. That
first skit led to her becoming the drama team director, then eventually, the
performing arts director at a small Christian school.

Lucie’s first novel was penned under a tree in a field in Holland.
Though her first, second, and third attempts never saw the light of day,
parts
of each of them became the foundation for “Broken Vessels,” her first
published work.
No longer involved with the performing arts, Lucie enjoys going on photo
shoots with her husband, and taking long (or short) road trips. She hopes to
find inspiration as she and her husband explore the four corners of the
United
States.

What Lucie’s Readers Have to Say:


The Rose Ring is a story of wounded
souls who find healing as they learn to lean on God and come to trust one
another. Ulrich has a knack for creating complicated, compelling characters
that readers can’t help but fall in love with. What I liked best
about this story was that it is woven around realistic family fractures,
and that it has a real world ending.”
“Lucie Ulrich doesn’t just tell us a story,
she brings us into the story! I felt their pain and joy, their confusion
and relief….It is a story about love and loss, tragedy and
forgiveness,
inspiration and
faith. You’ll be teary-eyed many times throughout the story, so keep a box
of tissues close by. And you’ll become so attached to these characters that
you’ll be better for it! It is emotional, inspiring and unforgettable. This
will be a book I will pick up again and again and will recommend it to
everyone I can.”
