A true Southern woman who knows any cook worth her gumbo always starts with a roux and who never wears white after Labor Day, Christa Allan writes women's fiction with hope, humor, and heart.Christa is the mother of five, and grandmother of three. She recently retired after twenty-five years of teaching high school English, so she doesn't scare easily. She and her husband Ken and their three neurotic cats live in New Orleans in a 170-year-old home where the fans and the lights turn on and off without them. But, they love it because it's in the quirky, artsy Bywater where they're one of the few residents who don't have piercings, purple hair and/or tattoos.Test of Faith is her fifth novel. Threads of Hope released from Abingdon Press in March of 2013. Walking on Broken Glass (2010) and The Edge of Grace (2011) were also published by Abingdon. Love Finds You in New Orleans (Summerside Press) released in 2012.
