Preacher on the Run ~ Jayna Baas

Welcome to... 

Hope-Inspired Romance 

...with stories that uplift and encourage. 

 During the first week of July, come celebrate our country's birth with author 

Jayna Baas 

and her latest release 

Preacher on the Run


  • Publisher: ‎ Jayna Baas - 1st edition 

Standing for truth could cost him his freedom. Fighting for freedom could cost him his life.


It’s 1771, and revolution is on the horizon. Frontier preacher Robert Boothe has spent the last four years leading resistance against North Carolina’s corrupt British government.

All he wants is a place for his people to worship God without fear. He’ll do whatever it takes to protect them—and his wife and young daughter. They’ve always known the danger, but he never meant to test their faith as much as his own.


But when Colonel Charles Drake arrives at their settlement, silencing Robert is his best chance to win the governor’s favor. And Robert refuses to back down.

On one side stands the power of the Crown. On the other stands a man of daring conviction. When his family and flock are caught in the crossfire, how far will Robert go to keep them safe?

The historical drama of Johnny Tremain meets the courageous faith of Pilgrim’s Progress in this engaging Christian historical novel. Read it now and step into a nation on the verge of the American Revolution.

A Conflicted Betrothal ~ Denise Weimer


Welcome to Hope-Inspired Romance... 

For June 2024, I'm happy to present 

Denise Weimer 

with Book # 4 of the Scouts of the Georgia Frontier--a faith-based Christian Historical Romance: 

A Conflicted Betrothal

  • Publisher: ‎Wild Heart Books (June 11, 2024)
  • A King’s Ranger, a secret patriot, and a love that calls everything into question.

    As a King’s Ranger on Georgia's frontier, Ansel Anderson loves his independent life. But he’s also a second son, which means he’ll need the favor of someone influential to secure a land grant to settle his future. What better way to win support than by marrying the daughter of a member of the Governor's Council? Yet Ansel's straightforward plan is complicated by Miss Scott's aloofness and his own growing sympathy for the passionate cause of the Liberty Boys.

    As drawn to the enigmatic Ansel Anderson as Temperance Scott might be, he’d be more of a match for her feisty twin sister—who is all too happy to oblige. Not only would timid, nearsighted Temperance make a poor wife for a man trained for life on the frontier, but anyone she allows close to her must share her secret patriot ideals.

    When Savannah erupts into riots and intrigue following the passage of the Stamp Act, Ansel is tasked with identifying a spy passing sensitive information to the Liberty Boys and the author of anonymous letters threatening those loyal to the governor. And as suspicions focus on the Scott family, which is he prepared to sacrifice—love or loyalty

For the first two weeks of May 2024, I am happy to present 

Carrie Fancett Pagels 

with her latest Christian Historical Romance: 

Mackinac Island Beacon...Book 3 in 

the beautiful Mackinac Island Romances series!


  • Publisher: ‎ Hearts Overcoming Press (April 27, 2024)

Plans hatched in 1897 bring friends and family from far distances toward Mackinac Island’s new twin beacons—the Round Island Lighthouse and the Social Affirmation Society’s training/retreat center. A missing daughter, a missing godchild—two young women’s lives have intertwined in ways they could never have known. The solution to both of their mysteries is revealed when all hope has been lost by those seeking them.


Is romance out of the question for Val and Susan, when their hearts begin to heal? Will Paul and Lawrence, friends from their childhoods, brought to the island for work, be their beacons of hope? Can God bring all their paths together or will too many obstacles stand in their way?
