Mixed Signals

 

Here's what reviewers are saying about
 

“Liz Curtis Higgs…has succeeded magnificently with her first fictional effort Drawing from her decade as a popular radio personality, the author creates a stunningly real background. Mixed Signals is the story of Belle O’Brien, a successful oldies disc jockey with a great laugh but a non-existent love life. Each of the characters are so well-crafted that they have a three-dimensional quality; even crusty old Frank is endearing. Liz’s background has made her eminently qualified to give her readers an inside view of the unique and frequently chaotic world of life inside a radio station and the unusual personalities that inhabit radio studios everywhere.

The real-life town of Abingdon, Virginia is so lovingly painted by the tip of Liz’s pen that readers will be ready to pack up and move there, or at least visit. And, if the beautiful architecture and friendly people don’t draw you in, the author’s description of Belle’s landlady Norah—with her inviting home and the enticing scents of orange-nut muffins, homemade soups, heady-scented breads and cinnamon rolls—will find you growing hungry.

A great story, superb characters, realistic situations, answered prayers and some surprising plot twists make this wholesome love story a ‘can’t wait to finish’ page-turner. Liz Curtis Higgs can add one more success to her resume.”

“Christian fiction isn’t known for humorous books, so this title is a special joy. In her fiction debut, Higgs…brings to life the usually ebullient but currently down-in-the-dumps Belle O’Brien. This bouncy romantic tale of a devout Christian woman looking for love should please most readers searching for a fun summer read. Recommended.”

“With its underlying Christian theme and well-developed characters, Mixed Signals reinforces the message that no woman is an island, and that a woman’s spiritual and emotional well-being is as important—if not more so—than her career or financial success.”
  BBW Magazine

Mixed Signals was my sweet reward at the end of my demanding days. Higgs’s first foray into contemporary fiction—with her delectable description, appetizing-yet-wholesome romance, and dollop of suspense—provided me with a most satisfying treat!”
