Hey everyone! Today I have a super exciting post for you guys-- an interview with Adele, one of Kellyn Roth's characters in her new novel, Souls Astray! This is a fantastic novel and I highly recommend it.
1) This book follows a lot of major events in your life. Is there anything you want readers to know about you before they read the book?
I was not always as amazingly faultless as I am not. *coughs* Okay, I made some mistakes - but I learned from them ... sometimes. So I suppose I'd like you to think a bit and decide whether to cast the first stone? Yes, Biblical reference and all, I'll stick with that. I know I've messed up, but I also know, well, so did you. Really. You did.
2) Who is one character that supported you most on your journey through Souls Astray?
Definitely my best friend, Millie! Millie is amazing. She's always, always been for me. She's a true friend. Even when she doesn't support my decisions, she's there - supporting ME and reminding me that I could be better. I love the dear, and I hope she finds happiness.
3) Is there an event in particular that you are proud of, or one that you regret?
I'm proud of having gotten that flower shop going - it rather realized my dream. Before that, I was very proud of being a good saleswoman!
I don't want to talk about what I regret.
4) What's one thing you hope readers can gain from your experiences?
I hope they'll learn not to hold onto things - to not hold grudges, to not hold onto pain. And I hope that, perhaps, they'll not make the mistakes I did.
I had the privilege of being an alpha reader for the book, so I just wanted to add a quick note. I absolutely loved this book and can only imagine how great the final version is. It's very timely and deals with quite a few issues that, I think, are important to remember. I can't wait to read this series in its entirety.
ABOUT THE BOOK

Troy Kee has been alone in the world since the Great War took his parents and left him in care of his younger sister. When she marries, he’s left to seek after his goal of a healthy, complete family. But how can he focus on his dream when trouble plagues his family vineyard?
When Adele and Troy meet, a whirlwind romance begins—but can two lost souls have a healthy relationship?
