Deepest Roots of the Heart
 

Narrated by the brilliant Thom Rivera, this audiobook will take you back in time and to the lovely vine-covered hills and slopes of Napa Valley.

During WWII, Avelino Carrillo spent four harrowing years in the South Pacific with one thought driving his survival: to return to his beloved home in Napa Valley.

The Carrillos have a history in the valley that stretches deep, like grapevine roots in the soil. For a century, they worked the vineyard at their family home, la Casa de los Sueños, until they lost the property to a wealthy land baron. Now, Avelino is determined to reclaim the land and home he loves so much. When he meets Amelia, a young woman who lives at the vineyard with her grandfather, he finds that regaining his birthright isn’t his only struggle – he battles the longing of his heart as well.

Can Avelino overcome the local bigotry and personal demons that face him to create the life he desires?

ready or not audio
Ready or Not

Now, enjoy Ready or Not read by narrator Jennifer Drake Ford.  Available from Amazon or Audible for your listening pleasure.

What do you get when you throw together a brand-new college grad, a house full of kids (including two sets of twins!), and a meddling grandmother/mother-in-law you can’t even claim as your own?

One hilariously inspiring Christian story celebrating family, friendships … and a whole lot of mayhem!

It’s Mom’s Night Out meets Cheaper by the Dozen when 22-year-old Aggie “inherits” her eight nephews and nieces, creating the instant family she never had (or even knew she wanted). Woefully (and laughably) unprepared, Aggie dives headfirst into a whirlwind of bottle feeding (babies need coffee, too, right?), car-pooling (ha! if only), house-keeping madness.

It’s the hardest job she’s ever loved, and she’s bound and determined to succeed. Ready or not (she’d say not!) here she comes!

Dive into this delightful series for all the laughs, inspiration, and encouragement Christian fiction fans across the world have come to expect from bestselling novelist Chautona Havig and her unwavering, steadfast (and totally endearing) heroine.

Past Forward

Past Forward Volume 1

It started as a serial novel released in episodes–five or six chapters at a time.  Now, enjoy Past Forward read by narrator Sarah Pavelec.  Volume One and Volume Two are available from Amazon or Audible for your listening pleasure.

Alone without friends or family to comfort her after the death of her mother, Willow Finley’s idyllic life is over—and just beginning.

When Willow Finley awakes on a hot summer morning, she is unprepared for the grief that awaits her. Jerked from a life of isolation with her mother, Willow learns what alone really means when she finds her mother still in her bed, never to awaken again in this life.

From the moment Willow arrives in the police station with her startling announcement, Chad Tesdall fights the friendship he knows he can’t avoid.

Follow as Willow’s story unfolds past forward.

Taking the pulse of Christian fiction

Episode 503: A Chat with Megan Soja
byChautona Havig

Don’t know about you, but America’s 250th anniversary has me a bit obsessed with finding all the best Christian fiction focused on the War for Independence. Megan Soja’s Scars of the Revolution will definitely make my reading list. Listen in to hear why.

note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.

It’s easy to forget just how torn this country was before it was even it’s own country. Neighbors held opposing opinions (kind of like politics today, no?). But unlike today, falling for the wrong person could be seen as either treason or disloyalty.

Scars of the Revolution by Megan Soja

Some scars are born from duty, others from rebellion—theirs were carved by both.

Libby Caldwell has been in love with Isaac Harrison for years, ever since her late father befriended him. While her head knows there is no hope of sharing her life with a British soldier, her heart is much more difficult to convince, especially now that he is quartering in her home. With Boston under siege and battle looming, each day together forces her to recognize how deep her feelings truly are…and how forbidden.

Bound by duty to both his family and country, Isaac is determined to serve honorably in the King’s army, despite never wishing to be a soldier. But quartering with the widow and daughter of his old friend places another obligation on his shoulders—that of their well-being. The more time he spends with Miss Caldwell, the more that duty begins to feel like something personal, something he cannot allow.

As the siege of Boston tightens, Libby finds herself drawn into a dangerous game of espionage that could save the Patriot cause—and destroy any chance of a future with the man she’s growing to love.

Will betrayal and war keep their two worlds forever apart? Or will they look to the One whose love knows no bounds to bring them healing and a future?

Don’t miss the first interview with Megan about the first two books of the series HERE.

The America 250 website is available HERE.
