​

​ A place where broken lives quietly begin again…

​

​Jillian had always played it safe. Then her husband Peter convinced her to sink their savings — and their future — into a run-down cottage in the sleepy coastal town of Drewvale, turning it into the bed and breakfast of his dreams.

​

She just wasn't sure it was hers.

​

Between renovation chaos, a cast of guests who bring more drama than luggage,

and a best friend quietly falling apart behind her smile, Jillian's "peaceful new

chapter" is anything but. And just when the doors are finally ready to open to

the world — a guest checks in who never checks out.

Resthaven Cottage is a warm, witty small-town story about starting over,

the friendships that carry us, and discovering that home isn't always where

you expect to find it. Curl up for a visit to Drewvale — just don't get too

comfortable in the good chair.

You’ll laugh, you might tear up, and you’ll wish you could book a stay yourself.

​About Karin Thompson

​

​

Hello and welcome — I’m so glad you’re here.

​

My name is Karin Thompson, and I write hope-filled Christian fiction and reflections for women who long for encouragement, healing, and a deeper sense of God’s presence in their everyday lives.

​

I believe words matter. Stories matter. And God meets us in ordinary moments, even in seasons of struggle.

When you read my work, my prayer is that you feel encouraged, strengthened, and reminded that your story matters too.

​

​

🌿 Why I Write​

​​

Everything I share is written with one purpose: to gently encourage hearts and point toward hope.

Through story and reflection, I want readers to feel less alone, more understood, and more anchored in God’s presence during both ordinary and difficult seasons of life.

​

My writing is rooted in Christian faith, always offered with grace, honesty, and compassion. 

​​​

Thank you for visiting. You are so welcome here.

​

Warmly,
