    Paullett Golden’s New Book: A Sporting Affair

    Pursuit at Point of Release

    Rafe Fitz-Stephens lives a charmed life: good friends, loving family, academic success, and exclusive membership in the Vitruvian Society, a gentleman’s sporting club. When the annual village competition calls him home from London, he’s ready for a hero’s welcome–after all, there is no one better to win the games than a well-trained Corinthian. If only his training had included how to avoid tripping into a leg-shackle.

    Genevieve Slade dreams of a stable home with a stable gentleman, stable friends, and, perhaps, a stable. Her father, however wealthy, moves his family from manor to manor, living as veritable gypsies to escape that horrifying word no one in the Slade household dares utter: responsibility. As she settles into yet another new home in yet another new village, both dreams and disposition are shaken when a madcap stranger tumbles, literally, through her bedchamber window.

    Join Rafe and Genevieve as these enemies-of-circumstance race to break the betrothal before either stumbles headlong in love with the other.

      Finding Forevermore is available today!

      Her family secrets. His guilt. One road trip that changes everything.

      Raven Cunningham has built a quiet life between the shelves of a small-town bookshop, ghostwriting stories for others while hiding her own. She’s long believed her father abandoned her, until a letter from her late grandmother reveals a shocking truth.

      Convinced the reclusive author J.C. Nevermore is her father, Raven sets out to uncover the real story. When her childhood friend Cole Walker, a former Army medic wrestling with his own scars, offers to help, she’s not sure if she can trust him . . . or herself.

      As they chase clues and revisit old memories, what begins as a search for answers becomes a journey toward something deeper.

      Finding Forevermore is a heartfelt story about faith, family, and the kind of love that’s anchored in God’s unfailing grace.
