About the Book
“Peace Dreamer” won the Gold Seal of Excellence judged by the Nonfiction Authors Association for its thought-provoking content, intuitive life coaching, spiritually awakening philosophy, user-friendly self-care techniques, and “peace begins with me” experiential healing exercises. As I wrote this book, I wondered, “Who are my precious readers? What are their life stories, struggles and strengths? What is their history with prejudice and how has it influenced their thoughts and feelings on words like peace, diversity, equality, justice, and love? Do they think peace is possible, or have they given up?” I know I’m not alone with my dreams and doubts, weaknesses and strengths, fears and resilience, courage and exhaustion. I also know I’m not alone in believing that each of us has the power to make a positive difference in someone’s life and to be the soul of peace and love even during the darkest times. I wrote Peace Dreamer from the part of my spirit that believes in the goodness of people. I am here to feed your spirit with optimism and healing tools that will gently add to your personal growth journey. I am also here to ask you to never give up on yourself or the world no matter how messy life becomes.
“The author is one of the most evolved souls in our world and her loving way of relating to the reader will bathe you with endless possibilities.” Barbara Gaughen Muller, United Nations President, Santa Barbara, California.
“Cheryl Melody Baskin writes with infectious sincerity, passion, and earnestness. Her expressions jump off the page, drawing the reader into her circle and giving them the almost-experience of being in the same room with her. Inner discovery tools, soul-searching meaning, creative self-care techniques, and carefully chosen affirmations are all shared generously. Thoughtful questions, journal prompts, and activities (called the “Look Within” process) are sprinkled throughout to help readers navigate their own private battles as well as contribute to the larger mission of creating a vibration of love, peace and hope even in the face of a chaotic world scene. Peace Dreamer will make you pause, take deep breaths, meditate, feel, and heal. Even better, it will help you to help others do the same. What a breathtakingly special book!” – Nonfiction Authors Association
5-star Amazon review. “Whether you are in a good place in your life, facing difficult memories from your past or dealing with present anxieties, you can bet on this book to lead you through your life one step at a time. Use this book more than once to continue your self-discovery journey. Her tone is inclusive and compassionate, and she has a unique way of engaging readers with words that resonate in their hearts and logic that appeals to their minds. ” Peace Dreamer will help you understand what “peace begins with me” really means, and how to feel hope for yourself and for the world.”
5-star Amazon review. “Peace Dreamer” touched me to the core. It invites readers to grow to the full stature of their humanity by tapping into the core values that define who they are — social beings that can create spaces of meaningful encounters with others. At a time when peace is badly needed, this book shows a path that leads humanity to that place where hope drives their actions, where the desire for peace becomes the pulse of every heart, and where love is a quality by which we are identified.”

Holland, My Heart by Jennifer J. Coldwater |
|
You know that stress inventory you can take? You get one point each for a long list of disastrous life events? Let’s just say I have lost count. In the last year alone I’ve lost my husband (and his brother), sold our home, moved across the country, quietly quit my job, watched my closest friend-slash-sister-in-law move out of the country, and… well, I guess that’s it. Could be worse, right? So, here I am. My name is Holland Gallagher and I’m a twenty-seven-year-old MBA with no job and a broken heart.
Which, of course, is when my best friend-slash-mother-in-law Naomi introduces me to her oldest and dearest friend, Kai Ipu. He’s the empirically attractive Black-slash-Samoan CEO of a corporate consulting firm (think a started-in-his-dorm-room company with an eye to making corporations better citizens of the world). But I’m a mess and he’s significantly older than I am. So, I don’t have to worry about that, right? You’d think. He just invited me to join his company. I’m never one to turn down a challenge… so, here goes everything.
Loosely based on the Bible book of Ruth (but with f-bombs from Kai, Holland’s drunken confessions of adoration, and one spicy sex scene), Holland, My Heart is the first in a collection of biblical women’s stories retold as contemporary romance. Holland, My Heart is an MF, dual POV, love-after-loss, sexy, witty standalone romance.
Targeted Age Group:: 18+
What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
When the world shut down in March 2020, I was living in Tulsa, Oklahoma, with a plethora of rescue dogs. (In case you’re wondering, a plethora is two dogs more than a pack. This is not science, but it is nonetheless a fact.) In the absence of anyone but my roommate and our canines, I started writing a novel based on one of my favorite stories: the book of Ruth.
For as long as I can remember, the story of Ruth and Naomi has resonated with me.
Something about Ruth’s devotion to her mother-in-law grabbed my heart and would not let go. As I spent twenty months with this text, I realized my own mother is the reason I am so connected to this story. As a military brat raised by a military brat, I can say with certainty wherever my mom goes, I will go. And yet, she also taught me that anywhere I am, she is with me. When you regularly have to pick up everything to move thousands of miles away, you learn to keep the important people in your heart.
How Did You Come up With Your Characters?
Holland is based on the biblical character Ruth. I actually named this character Hannah at first. I had written much of the dialogue when my write-or-die BFF Arlys Avery pointed out that if I named her Hannah, I’d never be able to write about Hannah in 1 Samuel. Oh!
So I wanted to find another H name because I liked how Naomi kept calling her “my heart”. Somewhere along the line, I decided her family name would be Amster and her young mother would have not looked very long for a name to go with Amster. So Holland it was. Of course, now that I have named my character Holland, I hear her name everywhere. Most notably, Tyler Hynes’s new Hallmark Movies & Mysteries holiday movie co-star Holland Roden. If she wants to volunteer to play Holland Gallagher in a screen adaptation, I will not be mad about it! She was great in "It’s Time for Him to Come Home for Christmas".
