Ever heard of @JackDaniels_US? What about Miss Mary Bobo's Boarding House? And Lynchburg, Tennessee?

Coming September 2026, join me on another journey as we step back in time to 1905—to Jack's Old No. 7 making its way into the world, to women fighting for the right to vote, to Prohibition, and to a world where whiskey barrels aged slow in the hills, secrets simmered behind boarding house doors, and one woman's courage could shake a whole town.

Coming this September—In These Hills. I can't wait for you to step into this story with me.

Can't wait till this book comes out!

[Tamera Alexander @tameraalexander]

I'm so grateful for @FrancineRivers kind words about In These Hills, and also that the timing finally came to tell this story.

Set in 1905 Lynchburg, Tennessee—against the backdrop of Jack Daniel's Distillery, Miss Mary Bobo's Boarding House, the women's suffrage movement, and Prohibition—In These Hills releases September 8 from Tyndale House Publishers.

Check out the Step Into History at Lynchburg page on my site and discover why this may be my most personal story yet.
