What others are saying about Virginia McCullough's novel, The Chapels on the Hill:

“A lyrical story of the healing power of love—it will capture your heart.”
—Stacey Joy Netzel, NY Times bestselling author of the Romancing Wisconsin series

Sonia and Aaron didn’t marry for love, but love found them and took them by surprise.

When tragedy struck, Sonia and Aaron’s reason to be together seemed to slip away, along with the love they once shared. Both believe they’ll find closure at an event dedicating a music pavilion to their son, allowing them to say a final goodbye and freeing them to commit to new relationships. But instead of finding peace, memories of the life they shared with their son, Matt, stir up unexpected feelings, prompting them to relive both sweet and painful times of their shared memories of the life they shared…

And they can’t forget Matt’s special gift…

By age five, Matt’s cello teacher declared him a child prodigy. But life with a prodigy can become complicated and even strains Aaron and Sonia’s marriage. Sonia is forced to balance her commitment to Matt and his music with running Chapel’s Botanical Garden, a business she created to save Aaron’s family’s land. Aaron’s law practice leads him to high-profile cases all over the country. Aaron is concerned about music dominating Matt’s childhood, but he eventually understands his son’s gift is already leading him to a life far away from their home in Lady’s River, Wisconsin.

When Matt is taken from them unexpectedly, Aaron and Sonia turn in different directions, eventually going their separate ways. It seems to be working…or is it? For Sonia and Aaron, only a trip through the past will allow them to redeem the future—perhaps even find a shared future again.

Scroll up to buy The Chapels on the Hill now and learn more about this wonderful romance story about how two people find a way to move on in their life after a terrible tragedy, or check out some of Virginia's other great contemporary women fiction novels: Island Healing, Amber Light, or Greta's Grace!

A writer all her adult life, Virginia McCullough has had the opportunity to write the stories of her heart in her novels, including Girl in the Spotlight, the first book in her Two Moon Bay series for Harlequin Heartwarming. (Book 2 is scheduled for release in January 2018). Her award-winning romance and women’s fiction titles include The Jacks of Her Heart, Amber Light, Greta’s Grace, The Chapels on the Hill, and Island Healing.

Born and raised in Chicago, Virginia has been lucky enough to develop her writing career in many locations, including the coast of Maine, the mountains of North Carolina, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and currently, Northeast Wisconsin. She started her career in nonfiction, first writing articles and then books as a ghostwriter and coauthor. She’s written more than 100 books for physicians, business owners, professional speakers and many others with information to share or a story to tell.

Virginia’s books feature characters who could be your neighbors and friends. They come in all ages and struggle with everyday life issues in small-town environments that almost always include water—oceans, lakes, or rivers. The mother of two grown children, you’ll find Virginia with her nose a book, walking on trails or her neighborhood street, or she may be packing her bag to take off for her next adventure. And she’s always working on another story about hope, healing, and second chances.

This book. At the beginning, it was hard for me to follow. But it ended so very well. It made me laugh, it made me cry. It made me feel good, and it made me think. It’s not a regular romance story, but it was great getting to the end of it. It makes me want to go to the botanical gardens. It makes me want to go to Chicago. It makes me want to have.Wreck of the Tudor.

I am so proud of my mom! Yes, I am the author's daughter and I make no secret of it...why would I want to? IT'S A GOOD BOOK! :) Please resist the urge to take what I say with a grain of salt because I am related to the writer. I don't want to give anything away, but the story felt so real to me. Both of the main characters are imperfect, but likeable. There is a scene where Aaron has to say something disappointing to someone and the way the person responds is just perfect...I wish I could outline it here. The book has real sadness, frustrating family members, death and heartbreak, but the happy moments are so rewarding. I love the way Sonia and Aaron wind up involved and married in the first place and my mom handles all of the uncertainty between them so well. This is my very favorite so far and it says something about the writing when you can read a book and forget that your mom wrote it. Love the Wisconsin details and of course...the house!

What is it like to mourn a beloved child?
Virginia McCullough shows us the complicated emotional task Aaron and Sonia Chapel are faced with when their teenage son, Matt, is killed in a plane crash. Matt was a musical prodigy and his death exposes all the previous problems in a marriage that seemed solid.
I read the author's previous book, Island Healing, and I found this to be another page turner by a really good story teller

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun read!!

This book was sad in so many sections, but really got me thinking. I enjoy books about family issues and relationships. I thought this was going to be a romance and while there is romance in it, I was interested in the family dynamic and thought about my own son as I read about the loss of theirs. There is a little bit of mystery, too. Are they going to get on with their own lives or get together again? The book is set in Wisconsin, so it was fun because I live in Wisconsin and liked figuring out what places the author may have used in certain scenes. It was a fun read and I am glad I bought it. This is my second book from this writer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't put it down

I read Island Healing and instantly became a fan of Virginia McCullough. She's done it again with Chapels on the Hill. For me, it's the depth she reaches with her characters. They become alive, and I end up genuinely caring what happens to them. I think about them during the day, while I'm making dinner or doing yoga or whatever, and worry about the situations they've found themselves in and the people they're dealing with (Dottie's arc is beautiful). In Chapels I loved the twist with discovering Sonia and Aaron's story in the present and past simultaneously. It made the decisions they made that much more relevant. I can't imagine the pain they felt with their tragedy, yet they came through, they survived, and moved on to become even better. That's a good read.
Couldn't put it down and am looking forward to her next book!
