The Cowgirl's Redemption

This was my first book by this author and I enjoyed it very much. Mindy Obenhaus includes some pretty powerful themes of forgiveness and redemption. Sometimes it’s hard to show people how sorry you are for past problems. But when we put Christ first in our lives, He leads the way! There was also included here a pretty wonderful surprise. Well done!<br /><br />My thanks to the author for a copy of this book. The opinion here is my own.

The Cowgirl’s Redemption is a sweet and heartfelt start to a new series set in Hope Crossing, Texas. I really felt for Gloriana as she returned home and attempted to apologize to those she had wronged in the past, while also working to take care of her mother as she recovered from surgery. It was painful to watch as her apologies were ignored by some and doubted by others. Yet, Gloriana truly had changed thanks to the power of giving her heart to the Lord. Her actions and the way she treated others proved her sincerity.<br /><br />The romance that bloomed between Justin and Gloriana was really beautiful. There were a few moments that made my heart hurt for both of them, but I appreciated the actions they took to make things right. I’m really excited to read more books in this series and revisit the characters that were introduced in this story, too.<br /><br />I received a complimentary copy of this book.

A wonderful new book by Mindy Obenhaus! Our first visit to Hope's Crossing is a must read. All of the characters are great but I especially enjoyed Kyleigh learning how to be a barrel racer. A story filled with faith, hope and love. 5 stars!

One of best romance stories I’ve read in a while. Definitely loved the strong Christian direction of the story! Strong characters and themes throughout. I received a copy of this book and all opinions are my own.

What a sweet story about second chances, redemption, family, love and trusting the Lord. I love how Obenhaus doesn’t pull any punches when it comes to her faith thread. But I think what I loved more was Gloriana’s story. She admittedly ran away from God, even after growing up in the church. She didn’t come back immediately, it took time. I think that’s such a great reminder for us as we watch our loved ones do something similar. Like the prodigal son (only not so severe). Don’t ever stop praying for them – one day they may come back.<br /><br />Obenhaus also knows how to write a story and setting that really pulls you in. The cowboy, the rodeo, the small town. I wanted to jump right in and become part of the story – which luckily because Obenhaus has such a beautiful writing style, I felt like I was. I think cowboy, romance, and Love Inspired fans alike will really enjoy the heartwarming story.<br /><br />I received a complimentary copy of this book. I was not required to write a favorable review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.<br /><br />

A moving story of personal and spiritual growth, coming home, and finding true joy . . .<br /><br />I have had the pleasure of reading several of Author Mindy Obenhaus's previous Love Inspired inspirational romance novels. 'The Cowgirl's Redemption' is one of my favorite of the author's books because of the main character, Gloriana Prescott.<br /><br />Simply stated, as a teen Gloriana was a young woman who was self-centered who acted without a care or concern for how her behavior would affect her family, friends, or community. Now she is in her early to mid-thirties, and she has definitely changed. She is a new Christian who has a sincere desire to make things right with her family and her hometown of Hope Crossing, Texas. She is a successful broadcast journalist in Nashville when she decides to head home to take care of her ailing mother.<br /><br />As Gloriana attempts to make amends with some particular individuals from her past, her apologies are met with skepticism, rudeness, and hurtful words. She didn't expect her mission to gain their forgiveness to be easy, but their attitudes and reactions toward her efforts hurt—a lot.<br /><br />Unexpected events happen, as they always do in this author's stories, and Gloriana's heart and life are opened up to new possibilities that she could not have imagined in a million years.<br /><br />With a strong cast of supporting characters, this book is filled with faith, love, and forgiveness. The book is completely clean in language and content.<br /><br />I received a copy of this book from the author as a member of her launch team. All of my opinions and thoughts expressed here are solely my own.<br /> <br />#######################

Gloriana Prescott has returned to her Texas hometown to make amends—even if the townsfolk she left behind aren’t ready to forgive. But when her mother’s ranch manager, Justin Broussard, is tasked with saving the struggling rodeo so his teen daughter can compete, Gloriana sees a chance to prove she’s really changed. But can she prove to Justin, and the town, that she’s trustworthy? This was a quick read for me and I really enjoyed the characters.i received an advanced copy of the book from the author.I recommend this book I will definitely be reading more of the authors books

I am a fan of books by this author. This novel is about a wayward daughter changing her ways and coming home to help her mother who has cancer. She is hoping to show everyone how she has changed from her wild ways to a more calm and faith filled person. There is a great human element to the plot. It has several romantic relationships in it which are what I would call second chance romances. I really enjoyed how the two main characters initially combat with each other. It makes the story more interesting and it also makes it so you are wondering when that will change. This novel also handles the idea of being a new person in Christ so well. I love that theme in the book along with the theme of forgiveness.<br /><br />Disclaimer: I received a complimentary copy of this book but all opinions in this review are my own.
