About the Author

Chris Solaas was born in Memphis, TN a half-century ago, the fourth child in a happy Norwegian/Italian family. He began writing stories at the tender age of 8. He was sure he was going to be a science fiction/fantasy novelist.

He graduated from the University of Memphis in Electrical Engineering, and began a career in Computer Programming. Things don't always work out the way you plan...

He still lives in the Greater Memphis area with a wonderful wife, four ADD children, and a bi-eyed snow-white monster dog that eats trees.

Somewhere in this mess, God took hold of him and shook him. Sort of like a terrier with a rat. Or a dad with His son. "What are you doing with the time and talent I gave you?"

"Uhhh... nuffin!" he said brightly.

Since then, he's been making up for lost time, writing songs and books for the glory of the King.

His passion is writing entertaining fantasy and Science Fiction stories with a Christian Worldview for kids like his four greatest fans.

Yet life was far from tranquil when previous family issues follow her involving an unexpected death that interfere with her wedding plans.

Review

Emmaline Kensington was confirmed to have ADHD. Add to that, she was adopted but considered a humiliation to her high fluent father and mother who also have a more attractive bio-daughter to dote on.

Carrie, Emmaline’s friend, gives Emmaline a DNA ancestry kit for her birthday, and then the two of them journey to Charleston SC to meet Belle, Emmaline’s bio grandmother.

Belle, who has been searching for her long-lost relative dies, and surprisingly, Emma inherits an historic house, as well as meets the man who is the estates care taker.

Not all that shines is gold though for earlier problems shadow Emmaline concerning an unforeseen disruption that affects her nuptial day.

Full of struggles, fortitude, faith, hope, love, and romance, Divine Legacy of Love by Tori Hines is a great read to cuddle up with along with a blanket and cup of tea on a rainy day.
