~It's all about the miraculous spirit of Christmas~

Miracle Circle, Book 2

 

If you enjoy Hallmark small town holiday specials, you'll love Stephany Tullis' made-for-the-big screen larger-than-life characters! 

 

Mayor Luke Evans and Deputy Mayor Jocelyn Lopez promise Smoothville, Georgia residents a Christmas celebration like none other in order to heal their broken city torn apart by the recent mayoral election.  After all, everyone loves Christmas. What better way to mend ill will?

 

Luke resolves to do whatever it takes to regain the trust of Smoothville citizens and even more importantly, his wife and friends. He charges his team to plan an event that will put Smoothville on the map; — and of course, make his citizens forget about last year's fiasco.

 

Newly appointed Smoothville City Manager and an award-winning project manager, Angelica Mason, agrees to undertake the massive project but only after conferring with Lopez—Luke's rival and nemesis.  

 

When Angelica's faithful sidekick and well-known political strategist, Jonathan Jarewski, aka JaRew, takes on the role of lead assistant, the holiday event takes on a life of its own.  One modeled after NYC's annual tree lighting at Rockefeller Center. As Christmas approaches, JaRew discovers someone's out to sabotage Smoothville's Christmas Extravaganza. And he's determined to identify the culprit.

 

Smoothville residents' tempers flare when rumors circulate that the mayor never planned to deliver on his promise. Angelica convinces Luke and Jocelyn they need a special SWAT team to identify the Grinch in their midst.  

 

Is the community right? Is Luke the undercover Scrooge?

 

The SWAT team and Smoothville residents work around the clock to salvage Smoothville's Christmas celebration. Christmas music, holiday food and festivities, and a few angelic hosts make this Christmas novel a holiday favorite; a beautiful story about the magic of Christmas, the strength of family and friends, and the power of forgiveness.

About the Author

Stephany's life changed dramatically in the fall of 2008. The professional contract and business writer was unable to find the senior manager job she expected to easily find after her relocation to Atlanta, Georgia. The move was for family reasons and a little sooner than expected but was a part of her personal life plan.

Refusing to succumb to the heavy disappointment of not advancing her career in a city with such promise, Stephany struggled to understand purpose behind sudden and unexpected life changes. When her oldest son asked, 'why don't you just write a book? Do what you love to do?', after a few weeks of thought, she decided to give it a shot. 
She loved to write and realized that one of the reasons she succeeded as a proposal writer was because of her ability to 'create programs and program designs' ---so effectively that they were loved by her business clients and convincingly presented to and funded by grant sources!

From inception to publication, Stephany worked for four years on her first novel, The Master's Plan, A Novel About Purpose. When thinking about how much she continually enjoys reading her debut novel, she writes, "I still laugh at all my favorite chapters and have yet to decide who is my favorite or least liked character. It's amazing! I was able to spin a tail around two frameworks that have had a major influence on my life: church and government politics. In writing The Master Plan, I was reminded of what a blessed life I have had and that despite what appeared to be very dismal circumstances, I was able to use my creativity and love of writing in a different way. Truly, I can see and believe, it was all part of a master plan."
