Designs for Nora
How much loss can one woman take? Six years ago, Nora St. Claire’s husband, Seth, a police officer, was killed. Nora never expected to be a widow at 37-years-old. How can she start over? As she ventures into dating, another loss brings her teenage niece to live with her. However, the man she’s fallen in love with never wanted children. When her niece’s estranged father shows up demanding visitation, Nora considers what it would mean to forgive the one person who brought tremendous pain to her family. Nora’s situation allows her to experience God’s renewing spirit in a way she never expected.
When life doesn’t go as designed, Nora forges her way through tragedy for the second time. Along the way, she uncovers family mysteries and discovers hidden strengths within herself, while clinging to friends who’ve become like family in her beloved town of Oakdale. In Designs for Nora, author Karen Richardson delivers this novel with an exciting and tender tale of love, loyalty, and new beginnings.

Curtains for Maggie takes the reader on a wonderful journey with Maggie Nelson as she discovers that she can claim more than one dream at a time. Navigating the stressors involved in moving from being a stay-at-home mother who manages her family with precision that would make most CEOs jealous to a woman who reclaims a college dream is a roller coaster you won’t want to miss. This story has a beautifully authentic feel, and by the end, you’ll wish you could join the ladies for conversation and coffee.
