Publisher Description:
"All Tangled Up - Olivia" is the first in a three book series which is a true to life beacon of hope. The series tugs at the very heartstrings of the human soul as it takes its readers on an emotional roller coaster ride through the joyful, lovable and exciting, yet at times, tragic life of 47 year old Olivia Marie Dansinger. You know that old-age question, "Why do bad things happen to good people?" Olivia is the person they were referring to. She appears to be a rock solid Christian with unwavering faith whom everyone loves and admires, but what they do not know, is that she is sad, lonely and as fragile as an eggshell. This beautiful, mid-western, Christian redhead St Louis Cardinals fan quickly becomes real to the reader as the unforgettable story unfolds. It uniquely combines the wonders of nature, American patriotism and an underdog's determination and unrelenting faith in God despite a lifelong barrage of seemingly insurmountable odds in a beautiful, but oftentimes cruel world. "All Tangled Up - Olivia" starts out in the summer of 2014 with Olivia in the midst of a mission trip to Kavanaugh, Tennessee. Kavanaugh is a small town located just outside of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park which was recently ravaged by a pair of freak tornadoes. The calling to come to Tennessee came to Olivia at a dire time when she needed it most. Just when the circumstances of life had become too much to bear and she was ready to call it quits altogether, God steered her i a new direction. Her sole purpose in coming to Kavanaugh was to find and help a young boy named, "Tommy" whom was orphaned by the tornadoes. What Olivia didn't know however, is that God had a lot more in mind. Many prayers may soon be answered and despite her fears based on unimaginable events from the past, Olivia may even find the true love she has yearned so desperately for all of her life. Through "All Tangled Up - Olivia" and the soon to be released, "All Tangled Up - The Journey" and, "All Tangled Up - Full Circle" see the wonders of God's love and mercy revealed through the interwoven events surrounding Olivia, a WWII paratrooper in 1944, an orphaned boy, a lonely widower, a hardened and bitter old man, a Smoky Mountain black bear and a whole passel of unique and interesting characters. The story jumps back and forth through times sometimes leaving you hanging on the edge of your seat. The love and betrayal, tenderness and abuse, and life and death accompanied with humorous events, reoccurring nightmares undying hope and unforeseen tragedies which fill Olivia's life not only will cause you to laugh, sigh, get mad, cry and feel like they are happening to you, but you will undoubtedly fall in love with and admire Olivia. You may even experience a story or two within the, "All Tangled Up" series which gives you the willies. "All Tangled Up - Olivia", "All Tangled Up - The Journey" and, "All Tangled Up - Full Circle" will each instill hope in a world that desperately needs it, help strengthen people's faith in God and truly shine like a diamond in the rough. I challenge you to read, "All Tangled Up - Olivia" and see how quickly you fall in love with Olivia. A portion of all the author's proceeds are going to help fund Christian charities, mission trips to Honduras and all around the world and help start a missions oriented foundation in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee.
