One of the most stunning destinations in British Columbia, Kelowna remains a hidden gem for most travelers and even most Canadians. In the Hug of Hills is storyteller and photographer Cathryn Wellner's love letter to a small city in one of the most stunning spots on the planet.
Vibrant and increasingly diverse Kelowna has earned two nicknames: "Napa North" for the over 200 vineyards surrounding it and "Silicon Vineyard" for the growing high-tech sector bringing young families to the area. In the Hug of Hills explores the most-loved, and most-photographed, sites in this gateway to the Okanagan Valley.

With a background in storytelling and consulting, writer and photographer Cathryn Wellner understands how to help people through challenges with a good story. Her Hope Wins books (Hope Wins and Feisty Aging) are a sure-fire cure for the bad-news blues. Her children's books (Two series: Millie's Farm Family and Turtle Talk) give children a lifeline of courage, love and acceptance. Her stories invite readers to stop, take stock, and enjoy the wild ride we call life.
"Cathryn's newest book In the Hug of Hills provides a warm and personal tribute to our beautiful city. Lovingly laid out scrapbook style, her pictorial voyage in and around Kelowna celebrates the natural beauty of the city as well as offering a glimpse into the growth and diversity emerging." Jennifer Schell, Award-winning cookbook author of books featuring the BC food, drink & farm community "Another jewel in the crown for Okanagan author and photographer, Cathryn Wellner. In the Hug of Hills captures the beauty of Kelowna in every season with graceful storytelling through words and photos. Each page touches the reader and draws them deeper into this place called home." Michele Rule, Former Kelowna City Councillor "Kelowna at a glance through the eyes of an artist. Enjoy this playful artistic journey with author and photographer Cathryn Wellner. A delightful and informative walk-about town." Fiona Walls, Real Estate Professional "Cathryn Wellner's new book, In the Hug of Hills, is a kaleidoscope of coloured plates and words that hug you close to the Monashee Mountains and Lake Okanagan's blue-green waters. These 'Peaceful Mountains' will embrace you, friendly, talented people will engulf you with charm, their myths and their wine will encourage you to stop awhile and read-to, perhaps, find Ogopogo and view our pristine hills and vibrant cities." Dr. Sterling Haynes, Writer
