FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Canadian Author Natalie Ross Debuts Faith-Infused Mystery Willow House: From Shadows to LightAlberta,
Canada — [August 25, 2025] —

Canadian author Natalie Grace Ross, whose work blends design, storytelling, and faith, has released her first novel, Willow House: From Shadows to Light. Set in a quiet West Virginia town, the novel intertwines Korean superstitions, long-buried family secrets, and a race to rescue a crumbling estate—all while testing the bonds of love, trust, and belief.

Ross, known for her thoughtful explorations of design and purpose, delivers more than a mystery. In Willow House, readers encounter a story where physical spaces mirror the emotional and spiritual landscapes of the characters. At the heart of the unfolding mystery lies a powerful tool—The Guardian’s Gift—a legacy capsule that proves pivotal in unlocking long-hidden truths. Readers are invited to discover how this unique key helps bring shadows into the light.

“I’ve always been fascinated by the way our environments shape us,” says Ross. “Willow House is about more than saving a historic estate—it’s about uncovering the foundations of family, faith, and the legacies we leave behind.”

Ross is also the author of An Insider’s Guide to Home Inspection and has written extensively as a journalist, contributing weekly feature articles for The Spectrum & Daily News during her years in Southern Utah. Now residing in the foothills of Alberta’s Rocky Mountains, she continues to write stories that inspire, uplift, and, as she says, “occasionally keep readers up past their bedtime.”

Willow House: From Shadows to Light is available now. Get your copy to discover how The Guardian's Gift becomes the key to unraveling the mystery.

This week we’re focusing on the financial impact of caregiving on the individuals who provide care and our economy.

45% of family caregivers face significant financial impacts—often taking on debt or delaying essential bills to care for loved ones. This statistic underscores a critical need for systemic support to help ease these burdens on caregivers. For many, balancing financial stability with caregiving responsibilities is an ongoing concern.

Please share this post with your audience to raise awareness of this daily challenge caregivers face.
