I am delighted to greet you on my website home where I pray you will be exceedingly abundantly blessed. While you browse, I hope your life will be enhanced and your spirit refreshed.

My goal for this site is to offer encouragement, enrichment, and the opportunity to read inspirational novels that will uplift, bless, and fill you with hope for the future.

In my debut novel, Seasons, (published: October, 2005) the characters demonstrated through a lively and dramatic story, that it’s never wise to give up during a difficult season, or become complacent during a good season. We are to trust God, who controls all seasons!

Now, I am happy to introduce my latest novel, Now and Then, Again. This story raises issues that will hopefully stir you to draw closer to God and provoke you to answer questions such as: Have you given up on someone/something lately? Are you nursing unforgiveness toward someone? Do you think your time has come…and left without you? Are in a rut in at least one area of your life - perhaps a place, relationship, job, circumstance, or attitude? You want to escape, but haven't the foggiest notion how to climb up out of there!

Do you feel the juices flowing…but wonder where they want to take you? Is God telling you He has something different for you to do, and you are afraid to take that first step? Are you at your place of dissatisfaction because you are trying to please someone other than God?Well, every now and then, we all find ourselves wading through these issues and flunking the tests. But as the characters in Now and Then, Again discover, talking the talk is always so much easier than actually walking that Christian walk. Think about it!

Blessings!

Romance In Color
"This wonderfully well-written and compelling book looks at the life of a single woman’s “seasons,” from the raging storms of her life’s winter to the sun-drenched days of her summers—and how she endure it all with God’s love. Seasons is an impactful, provoking novel, reminding us that we do not have to stay in the pit life may place us but climb out of the pit, place our trust in God and allow Him to cover our backs!"

Arm Chair Interviews
"Hopkins writes simply and truthfully of that thing called life. And she does it with interesting characters and a plot that makes you want to race to the end. This novel helped me look at life; my own in particular and helped me rejoice in the ways I have grown, changed and developed into the woman God made. Seasons might just make you smile, and you might wipe a tear or two at the abundance of God's love."

The Road to Romance
"Seasons is all about the drama! Fresh dialogue, realistic characters, and strong faith ties make this a good read."

The Rawsistaz
"Bonnie Hopkins has written a thorough character study that is immersed in a compelling plot. The Christian themes are subtle, but at the same time, evident. The characters, though Christian, have flaws and are well-rounded; this adds to the realism and keeps the book from coming across as preachy. There were a few scenes that seemed to be resolved too easily and others that were a bit unrealistic but in spite of this I enjoyed the book. I really liked the way the author incorporated the seasons theme throughout the story while presenting encouraging messages about strength over adversity, faith in God, and overcoming fears."

The Good Girl Reviewers
"Seasons is a wonderful, heartwarming book that reminds us all that God is always present no matter what season we are in. The characters and the situations they endure will stay with you long after the book has ended!"

"I especially loved how the author showcased a strong, male, positive, spiritual warrior in (character) J.P., a willing and able vessel to be used by God. If you are looking for a good story, this is a great book to pick up. I look forward to reading more by the author in the near future."

Glorious Women of California
"The Glorious Women of California would like to extend a warm heartfelt special thank you for taking the time to do a conference call with us to answer questions about your awesome book, Seasons, and speaking words of encouragement to each of us who are going through our own personal seasons. The character Jaci set the precedence as a role model for the single ladies of the group."
