deepest roots of the heart audio
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 492: A Chat with J. A. Webb
byChautona Havig

Secret police, an enslaved populace, a suppressed faith. Listen in to see what you can expect in J. A. Webb’s next thriller in the Seeker Series!

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

I want to say that when you look at the world today and compare it to Webb’s Seeker Series, you can see where things could lead to.

But it’s not just today. Compare it to the 1950s or the 1910s or… or… or…

Interregnum by J. A. Webb

The Book of Eli meets Frank Peretti

An Epic Thriller of Deception, Faith, and the Fight for Truth

Now comes the third installment in J. A. Webb’s “Seekers Series”- and the War in Heaven, the Battle in Unseen Places . . . just got real. It’s the year 2158 and the world did not end- it was enslaved. Now the Seekers are humanity’s last hope. Hunted by the Eye of the Eternal—the Order’s merciless secret police—these brave rebels have risked everything to find the lost Words of Creator God, banned for generations and lost to living memory.

Now, what began as a quest for Truth has evolved into a desperate struggle for survival as, trapped and cornered, the Seekers must overcome not just their pursuers, but also their own doubts and fears as their own faith . . . and even their sanity . . . begins to unravel.

Their beleaguered company threatens to fracture beneath the pressure of constant pursuit and uncertain reward as they ask- Is this quest worth the sacrifice of their lives?

But still, something ancient and powerful calls them forward, promising answers to questions they’ve only dared to whisper in the dark.

Because their search is now not only one of survival, but has evolved into a battle for the soul of humanity itself. And the hunters that stalk them are not all of this world. A Gripping Tale of Power, Deception, and the Courage to Seek Truth

Fans of Frank Peretti, Ted Dekker, and the sprawling worlds of Dune and Atlas Shrugged will be captivated by the pulse-pounding fusion of high-stakes thriller, epic sci-fi, and profound spiritual warfare.

⚡ A suspense-filled journey into a world where illusion is law and questioning it means death.

If you love stories of faith, defiance, and the battle against unseen tyranny, this is the book for you.

The Order has ruled from the shadows long enough. Are you ready to see the truth?
