Find Me in the Wind

She’s running from a royal wedding. He’s running from everything. Neither expected to crash into love.

Sophie never chose her life. Not her duties, not her future, and definitely not her fiancé. But when she escapes to a charming Lake Huron island, she discovers something unexpected: a ruggedly handsome sailor who needs money as badly as she needs freedom.

Tyler doesn’t do commitment. Staying means dealing with a past he’d rather forget. But Sophie’s offer-thirty days of marriage in exchange for enough cash to repair his wrecked sailboat-is impossible to refuse.

The rules are simple: Pretend. Don’t catch feelings. Walk away.

But nothing about Sophie is simple. Not the way she softens when he shows her his favorite places on the island. Not the way her hand fits perfectly in his. And definitely not the way she makes him want to be the man who stays instead of the one who always leaves.

When her secret identity threatens to destroy everything, they’ll both have to decide: Is this love worth the risk?

Find Me in the Wind is a sweet Christian romance about two wounded hearts, unexpected grace, and discovering that God’s plans are always better than our fears.

What People Are Saying

"Three Things I loved about this book: 1. I fell in love with Arno and Hattie. 2. The sayings and songs of WW I: I found myself singing 'Over Here, Over There' and I want to join a knitting brigade! 3. The promise of more books by Patti Stockdale. I want more!"

- Debbie Macomber, New York Times #1 Best-Selling Author

"Charming and moving, Three Little Things tells a sweet story of two wounded souls. Hattie and Arno are appealing characters, and their personal growth and their building romance will draw you in. The novel also sheds light on women's roles on the Home Front in WW I and the persecution of German-Americans, something rarely discussed. With touches of both humor and depth, this story is a keeper."
- Sarah Sundin, best-selling author

"Patti Stockdale brings the beauty and sacrifice of the World War I era vibrantly to life with her debut novel. Brimming with longing, courage, and romance, Three Little Things will whisk you away and leave you yearning for more. A truly stunning debut!
- Tara Johnson, author of Where Dandelions Bloom
"Patti Stockdale was inspired by her grandparent's WW I love letters. The result is her debut novel Three Little Things. Stockdale's powerful attention to detail reflects hours of research depicting the reality of life during WW I. It chronicles the lives of Iowans Arno Kreger and Hattie Waltz and how they kept connected by letter writing. Stockdale's deft storytelling effortlessly weaves from the letters to the action showing how war affects not only those headed overseas, but also the ones left behind. Three Little Things is a definite 'must-read.'"
- Mary Jedlicka Humston, coauthor of Mary & Me: A Lasting Link Through Ink
