Laurie (L.C.) Lewis will always be a Marylander at heart—a weather-whining lover of crabs, American history, and the sea. She admits to being craft-challenged, and particularly lethal with a glue gun, It’s documented that she’s craft-challenged and particularly lethal with a glue gun, which is why she set her creative juices on writing which was less likely to burn her fingers. She's also a devotee of sappy movies, fried chicken, and twinkle lights. She’s a RONE Award Winner (The Dragons of Alsace Farm) and was twice named a New Apple Literary Award winner in 2017 (The Dragons of Alsace Farm), and in 2018, winning Best New Fiction (Love on a Limb.) She is also a BRAGG Medallion honoree, and she was twice named a Whitney Awards and USA Best Books Awards finalist. Laurie will release her thirteenth novel, a contemporary Christmas romance in October 2021. "Cross-Country Christmas," was inspired by a drive she took through the often barren miles of Utah in a Tesla. Mysteries, romance, and humor abound in this fun Hallmark-like tale of two lonely rebounders who end up stranded together under some curious circumstances.
