In her debut suspense thriller, Pieces of Dark, Pieces of Light, Linda W. Rooks detours from her three earlier books, Award-winning, Fighting for Your Marriage while Separated, Broken Heart on Hold, and The Bunny Side of Easter, to dive into a futuristic world of international politics and time travel where adventure and mystery reign, but hope remains king. Linda is best known for her books on marriage and her ministry to those who are separated, inspired by her own experience with a marital separation. After more than twenty years of marriage, Linda and her husband Marv suffered through a painful three-year separation. But, unlike many couples, their story had a happy ending. They reunited with a stronger and more loving marriage than before. Because they have experienced the pain of a severe marital trauma but also found the hope of a reconciled marriage, they are eager to share that hope with others. Having the correct formula is not enough. A person in marital crisis needs emotional and spiritual strength to get to the other side. In Broken Heart on Hold, Surviving Separation, Linda shares from her heart and her experience to help those in marital trauma find relief. She is there to walk beside the reader to shed light in the dark tunnel of marital breakdown. Linda's second book, Fighting for Your Marriage While Separated, takes readers the next step by offering practical insights and breakthrough strategies to help navigate the complexities of a separation. Additional glimpses into Linda's story, plus true stories of others, provide evidence that you can really fight for your marriage and win--even when fighting for your marriage alone. Linda and her husband Marv lead a ministry for those in crisis marriages in Central Florida and have seen many marriages healed and restored. But Linda likes to have fun as well. And she loves children. Her children's picture book, The Bunny Side of Easter, is an exciting adventure about how the heroism of the Easter bunny made him the Easter bunny and the rabbit on the moon. Through bits of allegory, the bunny's heroism points children to the true hero we celebrate at Easter. You can see more on the video clip on this page.

She has had more than 70 pieces of her writing published in national and local publications. She is listed in Who’s Who in America, Who’s Who of American Women, and Who’s Who in the World.
