The Fernwood Novels




Welcome to 'The Fernwood Novels' by Wendy Love Clark. After spending years with Bethany and her family and her wonderful small town friends, I am ready to share them with the world.

Here is a synopsis about the first novel in the series.

Bethany is a reporter and columnist for a community newspaper in a big city.

 Her husband Matt is an engineer with a promising career. Her life appears to be coming together as she had hoped.


As an only child, Bethany is used to getting her own way. All she ever wanted was a husband, a big old house filled with children and her parents nearby. 



Then her husband is offered a new job five hours away, and her parents make plans to leave town on a retirement adventure, turning her happy secure little life upside down.


When she finds a beautiful old house on a tree-lined street, she thinks that maybe part of her dream may be coming true.



 But renovating an old house was not as easy or as much fun as she had imagined as it challenged her budget and her marriage in ways she had not expected.


But bigger challenges lay ahead as well as greater blessings than she could have ever foreseen. Along with a new old house and a new town, new friends were waiting to surround her with the kind of love she could never have imagined. 



Bethany learns that only God can provide strength through weakness.

Follow Bethany as she embraces her new home and new life while facing the biggest challenge she has ever known.

 Bethany learns that endings are just new beginnings.
