    Ellie Schroder
    About Eloise Schroder, Webmaster of The Christian Fiction Site:
    Ellie has loved Christian fiction for many years, after being introduced to it back in 1990. She developed "The Christian Fiction Site" back in 1998 under the former title "Ellie's World of Christian Fiction" after seeing the need for an online resource site for readers to become more familiar with Christian fiction titles on the market. Since then, she has maintained the site in her own spare time, as well as juggling a full-time job with GPH Wholesale, a distributor of Christian literature, and being part of the worship team in her local church. Ellie lives in Palmerston North, New Zealand, with Dion, her husband of more than 10 years.

    Playing By Heart
    (A Novella)
    {Barbour}
    1586604910
    Contemporary/Romance

    Review by Eloise Schroder

    A charming love story to warm the heart

    In this delightful novella by award-winning author Deborah Raney, two lonely people come to care for each other through the exchange of handwritten notes, without ever meeting face to face. However, each one’s imagined perception of the other is shattered when they finally do meet… will they be able to hold onto the fragile beginnings of deep friendship and let a budding romance take its course, or will they let memories of the past and misconceptions kill the relationship before it even begins to bloom? A heart warming read for those who love short romances.
