12 A SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ SATURDAY, JULY 16, 2016 Local author to sign books at Books ’n’ Bears Join new local author Linda K. Richison during a special book signing of her new release, “The Spirit of Love: Heart and Souls.” This is the first book in the Spirit of Love series. Richison will be at Books ’n’ Bears July 21, from 2 to 4 p.m. Her book chronicals “Serena,” who is left with shattered dreams and a broken heart as she picks up the scat- tered pieces of her life. Desperation pushes her to a new location, where she is destined for a new start. But to her dismay, the vision and her reality painted a differ- ent picture. Follow the perils of Serena as she becomes tangled in a world of mystery and fantasy, where she must rescue a help- less spirit with the help of a dangerously sexy man.
