Books by Victoria Rose

Through Cracked Glass is a life journey of lessons learned while traversing valleys and climbing mountains, both literally and figuratively. From humble beginnings in a blue-collar conservative family, through two divorces, a son's incarceration, and her mother's sickness, Victoria takes you with her as she charts her progress, sometimes moving forward, sometimes falling behind, but never giving up. Victoria learns how to persevere no matter where the path leads, the difficult art of practicing forgiveness, and finding joy in serving others, while God's grace is evident in every page. Victoria is a feature writer for two local newspapers, The Lynn Haven Ledger/Gulf Coast Gazette and Destin Life/SoWal Life. She also writes and edits for the quarterly magazine GO! Christian Magazine. She maintains a personal blog at astoryinthewind.com, where she showcases some of her published articles, stories, musings, the occasional writing lesson, and her day-to-day Arizona vacation experiences from April 2019. A native Michigander, then a temporary resident of Arizona, she currently lives in the Panhandle of Florida in Panama City Beach, within walking distance of the gorgeous Gulf of Mexico and its sugar-white sand and emerald waters.
