Christy Miller is now an independent nineteen-year-old college
student living in Switzerland, where she's been attending an
international university. After being on her own for nearly a year,
Christy is surprised and delighted when her two closest friends,
Todd and Katie, come to Switzerland to spend the summer break
traveling around Europe.
The three of them have very different expectations for the trip
that threaten to make the time together much less pleasant than it
could be. The tension increases when time runs short, and Christy
is overwhelmed with the realization that she will soon have to say
good-bye to Todd all over again. Do they have the kind of love that
will last until tomorrow?
Nineteen-year-old Christy Miller has been on her own for nearly
a year, studying at an international university in Basel,
Switzerland. Despite her great experiences so far, she can't help
but look forward to a visit from her two closest friends, Todd and
Katie. The two of them are on their way to Basel to pick up Christy
and head off on a three-week whirlwind tour of Europe.
But their trip soon gets off to a rocky start, and Christy wonders
if the once-close connection between her and Todd is still
there--especially since Christy can't get a minute alone with Todd
to discuss their relationship. As the three friends explore from
the fjords of Norway to the canals of Venice, Christy makes an
unsettling discovery about the value of keeping her promises. Her
jealousy of the time Todd spends with Katie has Christy constantly
second-guessing herself, and she is overwhelmed with the
realization that she will soon have to say good-bye to him all over
again, not sure of where they stand. Will her most precious hopes
have to wait until tomorrow?
Robin Jones Gunn has a passion for communicating God's love to
young hearts. She began writing story books for toddlers when her
children were little. Her husband, Ross, has been a youth minister
for over twenty years. While on a camping trip with teens from
their youth group, Robin found some of the girls hiding away in
their tent reading a stack of novels they'd brought with them from
the library.
Curious as to what could keep these girls away from the sun, surf
and guys, Robin borrowed three of their books. As she read them,
her heart broke. They were not the kinds of stories these girls
should be reading! After the camping trip Robin went to her Bible
bookstore and bought every book she could find that she thought
would be interesting for the girls and have a good influence on
them. The teens read all the books in a week and asked for more.
"There aren't any more," Robin told them. "That was all I could
find." The teens challenged Robin by saying, "Then you write some
for us. We'll even tell you what to write!"
She has now written over 50 books, including THE CHRISTY MILLER
SERIES, which has sold more than one million copies. A storyteller
at heart, she is also a popular speaker and an active youth worker.
Robin lives with her family in Oregon.
