Can Two Women of Different Religious Backgrounds Write a Religious Book?

 Can Two Women of Different Religious Backgrounds Write a Religious Book?

Why, yes, they can, and they did.

I typically write what I consider escapism, but Greta Boris (writing as Gretchen Howard) and I wrote a book that’s a bit different for both of us. For me, it’s less flirty and more faith based. For Gretchen, it’s less murdery. But we both love it, and think you might, too.



Candace thinks Mara is critical and obstinate. Mara thinks Candace is sanctimonious and controlling. They're both right.

Candace is a little too perfect. She'd admit it on a good day, but this isn't a good day. Someone has left an unsettling picture of her son on her windshield. On the back were scrawled the words, Do you know where your child is?

Mara's day isn't going any better. She's buried herself in a go-nowhere job so she doesn't have to face her past. But when she gets to work that morning, she discovers her boss is thinking about selling the business.

When Zoe, a girl from the other side of the highway, invades their lives, things head downhill fast. Zoe's claims and accusations have the power to rattle both Candace's and Mara's carefully constructed cages.

Can they cooperate long enough to uncover the facts?

Telling Tales is a sometimes funny, sometimes poignant story of two women's struggle with truth, lies, and each other.

This book has strong religious themes. (Which is interesting, because Greta and I are different religions. When we wrote this we had the idea we wanted to prove our ideas are more similar than different.)
