Jerry Jenkins Christian Writers Guild Operation First Novel Semi-Finalist




Kairos Prize Screenplay Finalist
Gideon Screenplay Finalist
Beverly Varnado, an award-winning author and screenwriter, is also a blogger and artist who creates to give others hope in the redemptive purposes of God.

In Search of the Painted Bunting, her most recent book and a middle grade historical reached #1 bestseller in its category on Amazon. She has also written a small-town romance series set in the charming town of Worthville, Georgia, which includes a Christmas novella, A Season for Everything. Her previous writings include a nonfiction memoir as well as several other novels and screenplays, one of which was a finalist for the prestigious Kairos Prize in Screenwriting. Her blog, One Ringing Bell, offering peals of words on faith, living, writing, and art has 1,000 posts in its archives.

As an artist, she has exhibited at a State University gallery and is always working on a new painting. She lives in North Georgia with her husband, Jerry, and is Mom to three and Mimi to two.

With fourteen-year-old Cornelia Taylor’s brother drafted into the army, they don’t even say the word Vietnam at her house.

Then, her best friend Opal Ann Stanley moves away, and Cornelia wonders how she will survive. A spark of hope appears when she comes across a picture of the exotic painted bunting bird. She decides it will help her sadness to see the bird in its habitat on the coastal Georgia shore and wants to cheer her mama by taking her along.

How she will carry out this several hundred-mile trip from their home, she has no idea. An unexpected invitation to compete in a science fair could be her ticket, but one big obstacle stands in the way of her doing so.

To complicate matters further, a new student, Angela, comes to her school, forcing Cornelia to examine her own heart and begin a journey of self-discovery that will change her and her family in ways she never dreamed.


Available NOW HERE.
Despite the glowing gas lights, festive wreaths, and holiday cheer that covers the town of Worthville, Catherine Todd is far from being in the Christmas spirit. She continues to wrestle with the losses that shattered her heart two years earlier, and while shopping for her kids, her overreaction to a disappointment confirms what she already knows―she’s stuck in grief. 

Children’s book author Collin Donnelly shows up in Worthville for a signing, but when an abrupt first interaction with local resident, Catherine, doesn’t go well, he wonders if he made a mistake coming to this small town. Eager to make amends, he soon learns they share a common interest in birding, and he invites her on an adventure that turns out to be filled with unexpected wonder for both of them. 

They soon find themselves working together to save an endangered bird, and the more time they spend together, the more Catherine is drawn to Collin. But there are forces mounting against them having a relationship, including Catherine’s reluctance to embrace the future, a difficult secret in Collin’s past, and an alliance Collin has with his agent, who doesn’t want to remain his former girlfriend. 

Can they trust that, through God, there really is a season for everything?
