Joanne Bischof has a new book releasing April 2 (probably smart to not release on April Fool's Day!!) but I just can't wait to start celebrating! Her new book, Though My Heart Is Torn, is the second in her Cadence of Grace series, the sequel to Be Still My Soul. (See what I thought of that book here.) I had the privilege of reading Though My Heart Is Torn already, and suffice it to say, I read it in three sittings. (Read a sample here.) I relished the writing in Be Still My Soul, and of course was drawn in by the characters. But this book? The writing is just as exquisite, but the story line had me by the throat. On the back cover you read, "Gideon has two wives--but he doesn't know it." Now, I am not a "cry-er." But the drama and emotion in this book had a lump firmly lodged in my throat more than any other book in my memory. You will not want to stop reading until you get to the end. If you have already read Be Still My Soul, you simply can't leave the story there. Grab your copy of Though My Heart Is Torn and savor every page. The best news yet? The title of book 3 in this series: My Hope Is Found. Hooray! To celebrate, Joanne is allowing me to share a Jocelyn-style recipe (aka simple) which originally appeared at her blog: 3-Ingredient Lemon Cookies!
Recipe: One box of lemon cake mix (Joanne used Pillsbury) 1/3 cup of oil 3 eggs Joanne says:
That’s it! Mix and drop by spoonfuls onto a greased pan and bake @350 for about 11-13 minutes. I know recipe ratios can vary from recipe to recipe, so if you have another cake mix on hand other than Pillsbury, simply follow the directions on the back, but leave out the water. This recipe doesn’t make a ton of cookies, so if you’re making them for a crowd, probably 2 or more boxes would be a good idea…and really just a good idea in general because they are a major crowd pleaser.
Enjoy!
