Councilman Jake Talford is determined to protect his small Arizona town--even if that means keeping a close eye on former sweetheart Macy Colston. Macy has come to Canyon Springs to get the scoop for her popular blog Hometowns With Heart. The rest of the town council hopes it will bring in tourists, but Jake’s worried she’ll turn local gossip into public scandal. He and Macy once more share dreams of a future together. Now it’s up to Jake to make her see what’s most important in life—love, faith and truth.

There’s just something special about small towns, isn’t there? I was fortunate to experience them growing up in the Midwest and spending vacations in a rural area of Texas where family has lived for generations. A slower pace. Walking to the grocery store, library, school or church--or maybe just a short drive to a neighboring town that boasts a few more amenities. Knowing your neighbors. A different perspective. I’ve enjoyed incorporating those memories as I create the world of Canyon Springs.

This is my fifth Love Inspired set in this little Arizona mountain community. (A sixth releases in April 2014 and a seventh later that autumn!) I love writing about the lives and loves of this beautiful, rugged area of the Southwest. In the summer it caters to fishermen, hikers, bikers, trail riders and those who just want to sit on the porch of their rental cabin and relax. Winters bring in abundant snow, luring in the downhill and cross-country skiers and those who enjoy cozying up to a crackling fire with a cup of hot chocolate. Those contrasts make writing about Canyon Springs especially fun!

Thank you for encouraging me to continue sharing the stories of this charming little town. I hope you enjoy my September 2013 release, “A Canyon Springs Courtship” -- which will probably hit the store shelves by late August!
