Juniper Creek
A new middle-grade, Christian fiction series coming soon
About Juniper Creek
Juniper Creek is a contemporary middle grade series set in a small, rural town where life moves a little slower and relationships run deep. These are modern-day stories—grounded in real life, not fantasy—where kids navigate challenges, friendships, and family in ways that feel both honest and hopeful.
At its heart, Juniper Creek reflects the kind of childhood many of us remember and want to preserve. Gravel roads, creek beds, open fields, and front porches become the backdrop for stories that are rich in meaning without being heavy.
These books are written for middle grade readers, but they’re created with parents in mind—especially moms who want to feel confident in what their children are reading. Juniper Creek is a place where stories remain gentle, meaningful, and rooted in truth.
Stories that Shape Hearts
At its core, the Juniper Creek series is about what matters most—belonging, courage, friendship, and the quiet ways a child begins to understand who they are.
Middle grade is a formative season. It’s when children begin asking deeper questions, noticing the world around them, and forming the beliefs that will stay with them into adulthood. The stories they read during this time matter more than we often realize.
That’s why every story in Juniper Creek is written with intention—to nurture courage, reinforce identity, and reflect the steady, faithful presence of God in everyday life.
A Place Parents Can Trust
As both a writer and a mom, I understand how important it is to know what is shaping your child’s heart and mind.
Juniper Creek was created to be a safe and trustworthy space for young readers. These books are free from graphic or heavy content and instead focus on emotional depth, healthy relationships, and meaningful growth.
While the stories are not preachy, they are grounded in a Christian worldview—gently reflecting truth, hope, and the kind of faith that meets us in real, everyday moments.
Rooted in Simplicity and Connection
In a world that often feels fast-paced and overwhelming, Juniper Creek offers something slower and steadier.
Here, kids ride bikes down gravel roads, wade through the creek, build friendships that feel like family, and learn life lessons not through chaos, but through connection, challenge, and care.
It’s a return to the kind of storytelling that protects childhood while still honoring the depth of a child’s inner world.
Coming Soon
The Juniper Creek series is currently in development with Rose and Pearl Publishing, with the first three books set to release mid-2026. If you’d like to be the first to hear updates, behind-the-scenes insights, and release details, I’d love to stay connected.
