Catch a Falling Star: A Novel - Softcover

"Catch a Falling Star by Beth K. Vogt is a story for every woman who has ever wondered if her "prince" will arrive. This novel is so much more than just a romance. It's a story about learning to be happy and to rely on God even when life doesn't go according to our plans. . . . Vogt has a way of conveying deep and poignant truths in a light and easy way to digest. . . . I definitely recommend Catch a Falling Star to romance fans looking for more than just another happily-ever-after. The ending won't disappoint, but the journey there is filled with valuable lessons. The sweet tale serves to help the medicine go down easier. Through the characters, readers learn the importance of being content wherever they are in life and understanding God's plans are higher than ours. It's a book you won't be able to put down!" * Fictionaddict.com * "Beth Vogt is a rising romance star with this amazing second novel.

I have a feeling THIS is the voice people are going to love discovering on book shelves." * http://enjoyingthewritingcraft.blogspot.com * "Catch a Falling Star, Beth Vogt's sophomore novel, delights with an intriguing cast of characters, a page-turning plot, unexpected twists, and sharp writing. I loved this tender story framed in second chances and heartfelt dreams that proves fairy tale lives come in all shapes and sizes." -- Megan DiMaria, author of Searching for Spice and Out of Her Hands "After reading Beth Vogt's debut novel, Wish You Were Here, I knew her books would have a permanent place on my bookshelf. Catch a Falling Star is laced with Beth's signature humor, well-developed characters, and spiritual truth, but her writing maturity shines. Her stellar ability to craft soul-stirring happily-ever-after romances leaves me craving more of her books. She does what every author desires-keeping readers turning pages way past their bedtimes." -- Lisa Jordan, award-winning author of Lakeside Reunion and Lakeside Family "This is one of those kind of books: the kind you open thinking you'll just read a chapter or two and then, before you know it, you're turning the last page with a smile and sigh. I don't know how she does it, but Beth's characters seem to live and breathe. I closed the cover after reading the last page and found myself a little bit sad, wondering where all my new friends had gone." -- Siri Mitchell, author of The Cubicle Next Door and Unrivaled "Beth K. Vogt has accomplished what all debut authors aspire to do-write a great second book. Catch a Falling Star is fun, quirky, and filled with Vogt's well-crafted prose and signature voice. What a great thing-to discover a new author for my favorites list." -- Rachel Hauck, award-winning author of The Wedding Dress and Once Upon a Prince "Catch a Falling Star is one of those books you keep thinking about after The End. Poignant characters, crackling dialogue,and a central theme we can all connect with: What happens when things don't go according to plan? Beth K. Vogt writes from the heart with such an engaging voice . . . and she definitely has a permanent place on my must-read shelf!" -- Melissa Tagg, author of Made to Last (Bethany House, Fall 2013) "Beth Vogt has once again captured my complete attention.With a slightly different feel to her debut, Wish You Were Here, Vogt's latest, Catch a Falling Star, is rich with true-to-life characters who sitdown beside you and invite you into their lives. The story unfolds with humor,tenderness, and a few poignant moments that will have you savoring eachwell-written word. Vogt points the way toward grace, healing, and hope withoutpreaching, but presents an honest portrayal of real lived-out faith and how itcan impact lives. Another wonderful offering by this very talented author!" -- Catherine West, award-winning author of Yesterday's Tomorrow and Hidden in the Heart "Anytime a novel makes me tear up, laugh out loud, or put my hand against my chest because the romance is just that good, I tend to give it a big thumb's up. Catch a Falling Star had me doing all three! It pulled me in, kept me reading well past my bedtime, and left me eager for more from this talented author. Beth Vogt knocked this one out of the park!" -- Katie Ganshert, author of Wildflowers from Winterand Wishing on Willows
