Join author Holly B. Gutwillinger for a Valentine’s Day book launch celebration on February 14, 2026, at La Jeune Café in Greater Sudbury.

I’m thrilled to celebrate the release of my debut novel North of Broken & Furever Home, a heartwarming story about finding purpose, second chances, and the life-changing bond between a woman and a rescue dog.

Book signing, local artisan goods, and fundraising for a local animal shelter.

Come by to enjoy:

• Freshly baked Rustic Rebel Sourdough

• Homemade Baking Co for custom-made cookies

• Custom-made lattes and specialty teas from La Jeune Café

A portion of the day’s proceeds from local goods benefit a local shelter, supporting homeless animals in our community.

About the Book: North of Broken & Furever Home follows two narrators on parallel journeys:

Renley, forty-seven and searching for her life’s purpose after years of feeling lost.

Sully, a young Shepherd-mix puppy fighting to survive in the northern wilderness.

As their stories unfold, readers witness the collision of their worlds and embark on a journey of resilience, hope, and transformation.

Read the First Chapter Free To thank my supporters, I’m offering the first chapter of North of Broken & Furever Home as a free preview.

Event Details: 📅 February 14, 2026 📍 La Jeune Café 🕐 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Support local authors, rescue animals, and small businesses this Valentine’s Day.
