This novel is a deeply atmospheric, emotionally rich story that lingers long after the final page. It is, in every sense, a hidden gem of a read—one that rewards readers who love layered storytelling, meaningful character journeys, and the kind of historical fiction that feels authentic and lived-in.

This project began when author Jackie Weger came to me with something rare: beautifully drawn characters that deserved to be treated with care. She trusted me, knowing my background in historical fiction, to help bring authenticity and emotional truth to their world. That trust shaped every page.

Readers who have followed my work will recognize the tone, the pacing, and the commitment to honoring both story and history. Jackie’s readers will recognize her signature depth of characters. There is emotional insight and humanity in every scene. Together, we shaped a novel that feels both intimate and powerful.

The Waking Bell is not a fast, flashy read. It is thoughtful. It is layered. It is haunting in the best way. It explores secrets, grief, faith, and the quiet courage of those who are often overlooked.

If you enjoy historical fiction with heart, substance, and staying power—if you want a book that doesn’t just entertain but resonates—then I truly believe this story will not disappoint.

Sometimes the most unforgettable books are the ones you discover quietly… and carry with you long after you’ve finished.
