My Thoughts on the Book
Bar & Tom run The Master's Inn. An unfortunate snowstorm leaves a family with canceled flights. Little do they know, God has other plans. Two families traveling and stalled by weather end up at the inn. Both families are dysfunctional and with failing marriages, one with a rebellious teenager.
The time they are stranded will change the lives of everyone. The story is about lessons learned in truth, forgiveness, and healing. Keep the tissues handy because you will need them for this one. This is a very emotional read. The God moments in the story will inspire you and remind you that choices are very important and can dictate your future.
The characters are varied, each one with their own set of issues and appear very real. I found myself rooting for some and not liking others very much. Highly recommended. A amazing storyline and well-written.
I received a complimentary copy from the publisher and voluntarily choose to review it.

More from Deb
One Sunday morning in 2012, I listened to our pastor give one of his excellent sermons.
I don’t remember what he said to spark this idea, but I grabbed my church bulletin and began scribbling furiously. By the time the service ended I had a rough outline, character sketches, and the opening scene written. And the title—The Master’s Inn. Some details, of course, changed over the years, but the title stayed the same.
The Master’s Inn was first birthed as a ninety-minute play, which my church produced over one weekend in December of 2013. I wrote the play and directed it. I had an excellent cast of characters, plenty of folks lending a hand from technical details to the dinner we hosted for our guests. It was truly a team effort.
The Master’s Inn play was the first serious effort I’d ever made at writing. After its success, I began thinking about writing a book. Now, ten years later, I’ve written three creative non-fiction, devotional-style books and contributed to a Chicken Soup for the Soul volume.
During the process of publishing those first three books, the characters from The Master’s Inn pestered me day and night to put them in a novel. Who was I to argue?
And so, those characters got what they wanted. They are no longer confined to ninety minutes and one weekend of publicity. They’re now out there for the whole world to see.
The Master’s Inn is a novel of human brokenness and God’s still-unfolding drama of redemption . . .
