Christine Nolfi

Christine Nolfi writes women’s and book-club novels concerned with family ties, friendship, and fresh beginnings. Sweet Lake, released by Lake Union Publishing in 2017, opens her Sweet Lake series in a fictional Ohio town. The novel follows Linnie Wayfair as she tries to restore her family’s struggling inn while managing expectations from relatives, lifelong friends, and the spirited Sweet Lake Sirens. Daniel Kettering’s place in her life adds a romantic thread, but the story also gives sustained attention to female friendship and the future of the Wayfair Inn. Nolfi continued the setting in The Comfort of Secrets and The Season of Silver Linings, allowing members of the town’s ensemble to move into new roles. Her wider bibliography includes stand-alone novels and the Liberty and HeavenScribe series. Sweet Lake marks a clear point in that career: it established a recurring community whose humor and conflicts could carry several connected stories.
