“Set with the backdrop of the well loved movie, It's A Wonderful Life, Rondeau weaves a spiritual thread and a warm hearted story. ”

About Linda:
A native of Central New York, Linda Rondeau graduated from North Syracuse High
School and later Houghton College. She moved to Northern New York where she met
and married Steve Rondeau, her best friend in life, and managed a career in
human services before tackling professional writing. After thirty-four years she
and her husband have relocated to Jacksonville, Florida to start a new
adventure...leaving rural America to live in a city of one million. Of course,
the more favorable temperatures allow her to follow another great passion--golf.
