Part of Series

Why is forgiving myself harder than forgiving Momma? Momma died before the bluebonnets faded. Losing my mother to Alzheimer’s did not bring the relief I’d expected. Dr. Benjamin Ellis assures me that feeling lost is natural. That I’ll eventually find my footing. He’s a good friend. A very good friend. But the truth is, Momma’s passing has put an end to my reason for staying in Texas. Especially now that an opportunity to chase an old dream has arisen. I never expected to be so torn between what I thought I wanted and the ranch I haven’t called home in years. Brimming with wit, authenticity, and southern charm, FIRST FROST explores the inspirational and emotional healing of a family shattered by tragedy. You’ll have to laugh to keep from crying. The Women of Fossil Ridge Series is a touching addition to the small town, generational series of favorite authors like Ann B. Ross, Jan Karon, and Beth Hoffman. "Gentry’s small-town series is a masterful peek into what it takes to resuscitate a mother-daughter relationship. Series sparkles with humor, heart, and southern charm." ~Amazon Reviewer "Gentry is one to watch." ~RT Reviews Read all the books in the Women of Fossil Ridge #1 Flying Fossils #2 Finally Free #3 First Frost

This girl who grew up on a Kansas dairy farm never wanted to be a writer, but she has always been a storyteller. Her mother called it "Selling wind in a bag." Lynne started out writing plays and skits. Then in a moment of sheer insanity, she decided to take a stab at writing full-length novels. Reinventing Leona was her first and it is no longer in print. The Carthage Chronicles are her time travel/sci-fi series. The Mt. Hope Southern Adventures series starting with WALKING SHOES and The Women of Fossil Ridge series starting with FLYING FOSSILS are her contemporary romantic comedy series. And GHOST HEART and PORT OF ORIGIN are part of her Agents of Mercy Medical Thriller series. Lynne can milk a cow, drive a tractor, organize a banquet, prepare a kid for that first professional acting audition, or sit across the table and enjoy a cup of coffee with you. She loves spending time with her family and medical therapy dog.
