On August 1, M. D. Schlatter released her debut novel, Autumn Frost, in her Seasons of the Heart series.
Running. From the past, the pain, and the uncaring. That describes the main character, Autumn, to the core of her being. She wants out and will do whatever it takes to make it happen. Fortunately for her, she stumbles into an opportunity of a lifetime with a few quirks. Can she be so lucky or is this something other than luck? And is it even possible since that tragic day years ago that she could feel loved again?
Another pivotal character, Lady Cannon, is seeking a solution to the future. Being an influential trend setter of her time the responsibilities given her weigh heavily on her shoulders and time is running out. Could the solution be found in a too green and inexperienced young girl? Or will everything come crashing down as she puts her trust in her Father once again.
Holding it all together is the character Landon Michaels. Having gained the irrevocable trust of the Cannon matriarch, Landon has sworn to serve her faithfully, though having his hands tied is frustrating. Through all the challenges he keeps seeking an answer bound to his duty and commitment. Little does he know that up ahead will be a curve totally unexpected which will change his path in ways he never expected.
M.D. Schlatter lives on a farm in the Center of the United States. For as long as she can remember, she has enjoyed making up stories to pass the time: be it on a roadtrip or falling asleep at night. In make-believe worlds, anything can happen and the ending can always be changed. In 2006, she started writing some of those stories down. Today, though she is busy being a wife, mother, and farmhand, she looks forward to leaving a legacy of her writing for the generations to come. Ultimately, she hopes to glorify her God and Savior with her life, her service to family and community, and her creative talents.
