The Rocky Mountain series

 

8995932_origWhen Mari Baker moves in next door, Benjamin Rhodes knows she’s the girl for him. Who cares if she’s ten years older than he is. She’s perfect.

When Mari Baker moves in next door, Eli Rhodes is captivated by her fiery spirit and brunette curls. Sure, she’s nothing like the singles bar hook-ups he usually entertains, but someone like her could make a man change his ways.

When Mari Baker moves in next door, Joe Rhodes is unofficially engaged to Beth Havland, so why is this little snippet of a woman getting under his skin? Yeah, she’s sweet and smart and shares his faith, but he and Beth have made plans. At least they’ve talked about making plans.

When Mari Baker moves to Colorado Springs, she’s looking for a fresh start–a new path. The first path she walks, however, is up the steps of the big Victorian house next door after she slips on the ice and throws her purse down the storm drain before she even has a chance to open the door of her new rental.

The Rhodes brothers become her rescuing angels that night, and the next path that forms is the one between their house and hers.

A review from Amazon: “I have been anxiously waiting for the next novel by this author and I was not disappointed! The characters in this book are well developed and believable. From the first giggle on the first couple of pages to the anxious anticipation toward the end of the book I was entertained. I didn’t want to put the book down and tried to read it slowly but that didn’t work! This is a great story that I highly recommend.”

Joe Rhodes had it all—a sweet, beautiful fiancée, a successful construction business, and a three story home that he and his brothers had restored to its full Victorian splendor. Then the housing market collapsed, sending his business to the brink of bankruptcy, and he had to sell the house to save the business. At least he still has Mari.

Mari Baker is just a month away from marrying the man she calls her “dazzling Joe” when she repeatedly notices a tall, mysterious stranger watching her. Could he be a stalker? Suddenly she finds herself alone with the man, and nothing will ever be the same again.

Joe isn’t sure what to believe about the guy in the trench coat. Mari certainly isn’t making any sense about it all. How can she expect him to believe such a ridiculous story? Before, he would have said he trusted her implicitly, but now he isn’t sure. It’s just too far-fetched. Maybe he has lost it all.

Mari knows she sounds crazy, but Joe just has to believe her. She can’t do this alone.

A review from Amazon: “Wow! I did not see that coming! After reading the first book in this series, Rocky Mountain Angels, I was very happily following along In the romance of Mari and Joe as they plan their upcoming wedding, and the intriguing addition of a possible stalker in Mari’s life. I was expecting a sort of romance/ suspense theme but then the plot surprised me completely and headed in an entirely different direction. Without giving it away, I was fascinated by the idea of ordinary people being chosen to take part in the most unordinary event in human history! “What if it happened now?” Engaging and down to earth.”

RMR_Cover frontBen Rhodes was depressed. His ex-girlfriend had betrayed him, then skipped the country.

Rhonda Holloway spent a year trying to help him–a year falling in love with him.

Ben didn’t notice.

With the help of an anti-depressant, he wakes up to the possibilities, and as he reassesses everything she’s done for him, love blooms in his heart. But Rhonda is gone on a European book tour.

And comes home engaged.

Fear wins the day as love is denied. Truth is pushed aside for the sake of integrity. Hope goes in and out with the tides of time and the words of one small boy.

One very special boy.

A review from Amazon:  “I LOVE this book! The characters are so believable that they feel like distant relatives. This was one of those “dinner and laundry can wait till I finish reading” sort of books that my family is happy when I have finished. As good as the love story is, I appreciate the spiritual questions it brings to mind even more. Such redemption! This book could stand alone, but is even better after the first two in the series.”

The gospel as you’ve never experienced it before!

“Jesus, are you just strolling on the lake?”

They heard a hearty laugh. “I guess I am. You should try it! It’s invigorating!”

A review from Amazon: “Okay, hop in the van, we’re taking a road trip.  With Jesus…and his disciples.  What?  I love this fresh perspective on the old, old story that I know so well.  Or do I?  Seriously, reading this story of our Messiah set in a new and different environment makes me read the Gospels with fresh eyes and a new appreciation.  And fall in love with Jesus all over again!”

Jesus’ Good News Tour continues with a gospel retelling like no other!

Marcus took his sister by the elbow, moved her a few steps toward a bench on the edge of the pavilion and sat, pulling her down with him.

Their relationship had been severely strained during her college years, and he wanted desperately to connect with her the way he used to. He awkwardly took her hand. “Steph… I’ve been close to Jesus this whole trip. Believe me, what he’s saying makes sense if you’re… tuned in to the way he talks about things.” She looked skeptical, but he pressed on. “Really. You may not like what he says or what his words actually mean, but he’s not crazy. He just has a mission here that few will understand.”

She let him keep hold of her, but her voice was still dripping with sarcasm. “I guess not. Who would have guessed his mission was slicing himself up for lunch.”

Marcus released her hand with a breath blown out in exasperation. He knew exactly what Jesus meant. His flesh and blood were going to be sacrificed. He intended to give up his life for humanity. But he didn’t know if Stephanie would be able to deal with that; he barely could himself. And what of Aunt Mari? Does she know her son is going to die?

Praise for Rocky Mountain Calvary: “I love this series. Each book adds to the last book and leads to the next. It is thought provoking. I couldn’t put it down. The characters are well developed. I could immerse myself in the story and see it all happening. The gospel as it would happen in today’s world. Romance, suspense, and clean writing. what more could you want in a book. It had me thinking about how I live my life. A recommended read for anyone.”
