FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
DAVID C. COOK AUTHOR CHRIS COPPERNOLL, RELEASES NEW NOVEL, A BEAUTIFUL FALL, OCTOBER 1ST, 2008. FOLLOWS THE RELEASE OF 2007'S CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED DEBUT, PROVIDENCE.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (September 10, 2008) - On the heels of his critically acclaimed debut novel, Providence, Chris Coppernoll will release his latest fiction novel, A Beautiful Fall, through David C. Cook publishing on October 1, 2008.
Coppernoll's second novel, and fifth book, tells the inspirational story of high-powered Boston attorney, Emma Madison, who returns home to Juneberry, South Carolina after twelve years away when her father suffers a sudden heart attack. While arranging his affairs, Emma becomes reacquainted with close friends she abandoned years earlier, and with her true love, Michael Evans. The comforts of Southern small-town life confront Emma as she's forced to deal with secrets from her past, and ultimately decide who she really is. "On the surface, A Beautiful Fall, is a love story about Emma and Michael," Coppernoll said. "But its layers and depth I hope will intrigue readers and make the book impossible to put down."
A Beautiful Fall was written in a mere 12 weeks during the Fall 2007, an ambitious second effort. Already identified as a writer in the style of Nicholas Sparks, Coppernoll is often asked what it's like to be a man writing contemporary romantic fiction from Christian point of view. "In A Beautiful Fall, I wanted to take on themes of interest to both men and women, and show characters like Emma Madison who choose to face their fears and reveal their personal scars as they search for real love, and a place to call 'home'."
This year, Coppernoll was featured on the cover of Lifeway's "Christian Single" magazine. A popular speaker on single's issues, A Beautiful Fall addresses themes that are constant in the lives of many singles. "My novels deal with many of the realities of single life, especially issues like missing someone you love, longing for a life partner, and recovering from painful breakups that can stunt us from becoming all God wants us to be."
Providence, released last Summer, received rave reviews from a wide spectrum of readers across the internet's growing Christian fiction blog world. Novel Journey says that Providence is "Powerful, poignant, and utterly satisfying . . a five star read." Deena's Books called Providence "The best debut of 2007." Book Junkie Confessions gave Providence 5++ stars, saying "the ending took my breath away", and The Queen B calls it "An incredible book. I loved it."
Coppernoll has written five books including his first book of interviews with 70 of Christian music's top artists, Soul2Soul (1998), Secrets of a Faith Well Lived (2001), the daily devotional, God's Calling (2004), and Providence (2007). In addition to writing, Coppernoll has toured as a speaker to singles and appeared on radio and television programs "At Home Live", "New Harvest" Televsion, "Atlanta Live", "It's Time for Herman & Sharron", "Talk of the Town", "Faith Cafe." He is a regular contributor to Moody Radio's Friday singles segment on WMBI in Chicago.
Coppernoll continues to host the popular Christian artist feature, Soul2Soul, which airs on 800 radio outlets around the globe and celebrates its 15th broadcast year Summer 2009 . Recent guests include Diamond Rio, Jars of Clay, Rebecca St. James, Rush of Fools, and MercyMe.
