Bittersweet Christina Marie Hales

What happens when a quirky hair stylist reluctantly takes a DNA test and unearths a long-buried family secret? Come along on Christi's journey from the snowy woods of Upstate New York through the city streets of Paris as she lands in the sweltering heat in the heart of North Carolina to unravel a mystery, interwoven with her own life story, that ultimately tests her mettle and her faith. Miracles and tragedies abound on this rollercoaster ride of a lifetime, and just when things start to go right, life takes a left turn. Christina Marie Hales is a public speaker, small business owner, MS survivor and MS treatment and research advocate, former avid cyclist, and wife and mother. Her mission is to draw people closer to God. Christi's story is her testimony to what God did in her life and an example of what God can do in yours. She wants you to know that He can do anything for you according to His will and all you have to do is trust Him as your Savior and walk with Him. Catherine Anne Lewis accidentally stumbled into a memoir writers' workshop and has been trapped in the genre ever since. Cat rarely writes fiction because reality is much more interesting and unbelievable. Her adopted home is in North Carolina where she wonders if the adult children will ever leave, and if the harassing beagles will ever leave her alone. She writes because she breathes. She loves God and attempts to follow her late husband's life philosophy to love people like Jesus and build community wherever she goes.
