Runyan is an author who writes to celebrate history’s unsung heroines\, who has been honored as a Historical Novel Society Editor’s Choice selection\, a 3-time finalist for the Colorado Book Awards\, and as a nominee for the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writer of the Year. Aimie is active as an educator and speaker in the writing community and beyond. Before transitioning to full-time writing\, she taught French to high schoolers\, with occasional stints in English\, Public Speaking\, and Competitive Forensics. \nAimie’s newest novel\, The Memory of Lavender and Sage\, is set in beautiful\, luscious Provence: a dreamy escape into Southern France. The story explores the life of food critic Tempèsta Luddington\, who has always felt like the odd person out in her family\, ever since she lost her beloved mother at the tender age of thirteen. \nUnmoored after the sudden death of her father\, Tempèsta decides to seek out the truth regarding her mother’s past by using the remainder of her money to buy a dilapidated manor house in Sainte-Colombe\, a small village in Provence\, where her mother had grown up. Her welcome is cold at best\, and she finds herself wondering if the entire experiment was a mistake. Yet she stays\, stubbornly sticking it out\, slowly learning that her mother’s legacy was more than just a nest egg. Through her mother and the village\, Tempèsta learns the value of community and friendship\, the importance of self-confidence\, and the power of love and trust. What’s more\, she sees for herself that there is magic and beauty in the every day—even something as simple as a sprig of lavender and sage. \nTo schedule a book club visit with Aimie or any of our authors on NovelNetwork: \n\n\nConnect with this Author on NovelNetwork®\n\n\n \nAbout Lavender Gift Boutique\nLavender is a woman-owned\, carefully curated collection of goods for the home\, bath kitchen\, and garden.
