The Wolf Creek Ranch series by Mandi Blake combines western romance with contemporary Christian romance in one brilliant spin-off series from her Blackwater Ranch series. Western romance is crazy popular, and Mandi and I talk about her books, how she writes them, and about her exciting newsletter Faith Reads Romance. Note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you. Fall in Love with This Wonderful New Romance Series Mandi Blake loves to write about cowboys working the land, loving the Lord, and being that loyal, stand-up guy everyone roots for. A cattleman's daughter herself, Mandi knows the life of which she writes, and where it differs from her own, she's got friends to keep her books authentic and page-turners! Not only that, but Mandi is a fun-loving, spontaneous gal who reads almost as much as she writes (or so it seems to me!). I learned of a few new-to-me authors from her. I never thought I'd ache to read a "billionaire" series, but one with a strong faith element AND a billionaire biker? Yeah. I have to find out about that, so Evangeline Kelly is next up on my "to try" list--right after Mandi Blake herself!  She also recommended Hannah Jo Abbot and romantic suspense author, Tara Rice Erickson. But wait, there's more! Mandi and her friends have joined forces to bring readers the best in romance books on sale or just highly recommended.  Visit Faithbooksromance.com for new releases and sales discounts on Wednesday and Saturday. Also, follow them on Instagram at faithbooksromance. On Mondays and Thursdays, they tell about different series! And finally, I can't remember what she said about her reader group that intrigued me, but something did, so I think you should check it out! Truth Is a Whisper by Mandi Blake They both want the truth, but are they willing to pay the price? Ava Collins is more than ready to say goodbye to the breakneck pace of the city, and an invitation to her grandfather’s ranch is exactly what she needs. Finding out her former flame is running the ranch, on the other hand, was entirely unexpected. How can she put aside her memories of that whirlwind summer when she has to work beside the handsome cowboy every day? Jameson Ford was grateful to be offered the new foreman job at Wolf Creek Ranch. He's eager to prove himself, but quickly distracted by the reappearance of his first love, who also happens to be his boss's granddaughter. It’s been years since they promised each other forever, and neither of them know how to pick up where they left off or if they should forget it ever happened. Allied by their love of the ranch, Jameson and Ava have to work together, despite the lingering feelings between them. When Ava uncovers secrets about her family, she doesn’t know if she can trust anyone. Most of all, can she learn to trust her heart on her way to discovering the truth? Truth is a Whisper is the first book in the Christian romance Wolf Creek Ranch series. You can learn more about Mandi Blake on her WEBSITE.
