 What is A real world Christian Book?

It is one that show life as it is today--not stuck in the 1800's. I believe my inspirational thriller, Bibles and Bones in the Forest, does this. Set in New York State's pine-scented Adirondack Mountains, it delves into the lives of  today's women who face real challenges



Like Laura Murillo, the central character, in Bibles and Bones in the Forest; a mentally and physically strong leader, who operates  the Pine Brook Horse Ranch and Rescue with her husband, Chris. Who could possibly be stalking her from the forest--and why?                

Like Stella Ramirez, the gorgeous and gifted ballerina whose charm has gotten her whatever she wants. Yet it could not get her out of a life or death situation.  Will her husband Raul's concerns about her isolated dance studio come true?                           

Like Tiffany Cavanaugh, the deeply spiritual one, whose pastor-husband, Stevie, teaches a local Bible study, while she struggles with depression. This is compounded by guilt after a "friend" tells her that taking anti-depressants shows a lack of faith.

She called it "heart stirring." ๐Ÿ’Ÿ๐Ÿ’Ÿ๐Ÿ’Ÿ๐Ÿ’Ÿ๐Ÿ’Ÿ

It is a heart-stirring mix of suspense and spiritual growth. I was drawn
into the peaceful lives of three women living their dreams—until one
stranger's sudden arrival turns everything upside down.

SWEET OR A SCHEMER?

 Stella Ramirez is a gifted, gorgeous ballerina, But sweet? You decide for yourself.

Along with Laura and Tiffany, she is one of the three central characters in Bibles and Bones in the Forest,  the first book in the Angels at Pine Brook Ranch inspirational thriller series.

Stella uses her charm to get what she wants and she has her big, tattooed, Army veteran father wrapped around her pretty, manicured finger.  Although her state trooper husband, Raul, is wise to her wiles, sometimes he cannot help succumb to her charms.  

If a mirror is handy, she'll admire her reflection.

She is pictured in the ballet studio her father worked long hours bartending and fixing cars to finance for her.

Stella enjoys teaching children the art of ballet, along with confidence and poise, even at no cost, for those whose parents cannot afford it. 

As a Latina, she is fluent in Spanish.

She is also loyal to her family and friends, such as Laura and Tiffany, other central characters in the series. And yes, she can be sweet.  She is devoted to her husband.

Like her father, she is a hard worker. 

Imagine the determination it took her to become a ballerina featured on stage. As a single, teen mom she cleaned ballet studios, even their bathrooms, to earn enough money to care for her infant son. Now she has an infant son with Raul. And just look at her tiny waist. 

Who would dare bring this beauty to the point of death?

Sweet or schemer? What do you think?

Find out more in Bibles and Bones in the Forest, available on Amazon, and reviews are greatly appreciated. Thank you.
