Autumn of Kendi

Kendi Arnold is back home in Redmond, WA after a magical summer at The Guesthouse in Lake Chelan, and is ready to take on her junior year of high school! Juggling A.P. classes, an elite choral group, a new church and youth group, as well as auditioning for the school play, Kendi will have her hands full. Kendi's long-time confidante, Bella, has moved in another direction so Kendi will rely on the good friends she made in Chelan this summer, plus some special new ones at home. She becomes acquainted with the lead actor in the musical, and ends up with some Homecoming date dilemmas. And, when tragedy hits the town of Chelan, Kendi learns how valuable it is to be there for her friends as they navigate the aftermath. Autumn of Kendi, like the other books in The Guesthouse Girls series, follows the girls as they come-of-age while they discover their passions, find new friendships and nurture existing relationships, and grow in their faith.



The Autumn Collection, the first of which is Autumn of Kendi, is a group of books that feature one of The Guesthouse Girls as the title character. Each novella follows one of the girls in the autumn semester of her junior year. Although the books each showcase a single Guesthouse Girl, there are plenty of interactions with the other characters made popular in the summer trilogy.
