Small-Town Brides

Janet Tronstad grew up on her family’s farm in central Montana and now lives in Pasadena, California where she is always at work on her next book. She has written over thirty books, many of them set in the fictitious town of Dry Creek, Montana where the men spend the winters gathered around the potbellied stove in the hardware store and the women make jelly in the fall.

Debra believes in hard work, perseverance and waiting on God's timing. It took Debra thirteen years to finally sell her first book. Her beloved husband of twenty-two years died just seven months before she finally sold, so he never saw her name in print. During her grief after his death God gave Debra an appreciation for the need for humour, especially in Christian fiction.

Her greatest blessing is when readers tell her one of her books helped them laugh again or see God's love shine through during a dark time in their life. It is her life's purpose to bring smiles to her readers.
