Lavish Love {a letter to my husband}

Jenny Bullington — Wed, 05 Sep 2018 15:01:46 +0000

For over two and a half years, I've been the blessed recipient of love letters, notes, and cards...

I can't even look in the mirror without being reminded of my husband's love!

For our anniversary, my husband, Branden, gifted me with a "words of affirmation" tattoo. His words from his heart will be tattooed on my forearm, in his own handwriting, so I will never forget his love and encouragement to me.

So, in response, I penned this love letter back to him...

My husband -

Each day there is abundant joy!

To dwell with the one whom my heart loves.

My surety and my adoration given wholly

To the one with whom my favor rests,

The one whom my life offering accepts.

That in all the ways thee could have come to me,

It was through tragedy.

Abuse from our partners, we both survived,

To now have become fully alive!

Oh, what lavish love thee gives!

'Tis thine heart, my being dwells.

We rise up victors, no past can contain.

I would become one with thee again and again!

Where there was grief,

Thy precious hands washed my feet,

Giving hope anew.

On thy wings I gently flew.

Thy love gives shelter,

In whose precious arms I know no shame.

Thou hast given me safety,

Thou hast given me thine name.

I long for thy presence,

Like warm spring winds after long winter.

'Tis with thee, dear husband, my soul rests.

What a year! (This Last Year in Quick Review)

Jenny Bullington — Tue, 04 Sep 2018 20:05:19 +0000

WOW! This last year has been a whirlwind! Finally in a season of life where I can focus on my career as an author, with an incredibly supportive husband, family, and friends, I released my first new book August 2017. It was a new genre for me to write, and a new style, but it was so FUN and the feedback so far has been amazing. I'm incredibly grateful everyday I get to be a part of this literary world with each of you. It's been the amazing people I've been able to meet that has been my greatest gift from this journey. I'm so happy I can make you smile, laugh, and feel empowered when you read my works.

It started with the release of my historical romance/crime novel Race to the Gallows, Book 1 in the Mavericks of the Heartland series. Set in the 1940's, a couple who are madly in love fight against the workings of the criminal underworld in their sleepy Northwest Iowa town. Based on true events that took place near my hometown!

Then I had the blessing of doing a signing at the amazing PennedCon book festival! That was like my unicorn - I'd wanted to attend PennedCon for years, but finally had the chance in 2017! The people I've met there - readers, bloggers, and fellow authors - have been some of my greatest inspiration and gifts in life! Now I have a community of other writers who are incredible!

Then, to my amazement, the book (Race to the Gallows) started taking off and we were so grateful to be a part of the North Iowa Book Bash! I'd been following Lori and the BF Bookies for a while but then to meet them in person - WOW! I was just so grateful to be a part of an amazing group of authors and readers! My husband, Branden, was able to get started on his book cover modeling gig as well. (He's hot, not going to lie!)

Soon, my 2018 book signing schedule filled up and I was able to release the second book in the Mavericks of the Heartland Series!

So, it's been an amazing year. Thanks for being along for the ride!!! Stay tuned, the next blog post will be about my upcoming release of The Silken Daggers, Book 2 in the Mavericks of the Heartland series, releasing 9/6/18!
