Cara C. Putman lives in Indiana with her husband and four children.
She's an attorney and a teacher at her church as well as lecturer
at Purdue. She has loved reading and writing from a young age
and now realizes it was all training for writing books. She
loves bringing history and romance to life. An honors graduate
of the University of Nebraska and George Mason University School
of Law, Cara left small town Nebraska and headed to Washington,
DC, to launch her career in public policy. Cara is an author
chasing hard after God as she lives a crazy life. She invites
you to join her on that journey.
I absolutely LOVED this entire collection. While it's a collection
of 4 books in 1, the stories were extremely well written and
highly captivating, so this was a fast paced read. I would turn
each page to each story, and find myself thrown into a completely
new twist or turn and there were times I thought I had things
figured out and then one of the authors would hit me with a
new puzzle piece, and I'd have to start the guessing game all
over again. That was awesome!
I definitely recommend this 4-in-1 novella collection by some
fantastic Christian authors. It's a high 5 Book worthy, two
thumbs up collection that will keep you guessing, and leave
you feeling like you've made some fantastic new friends! These
authors are talented and their work is sure to be on my future
reading list now!

Broken Sight: A Rescue Ops Adventure,
by Steve Rzasa
The dark days are over.
The secret religious police, Kesek, no longer holds sway over
the Realm of Five. Freedom of belief is returned. Now Lieutenant
Commander Brian Gaudette of Rescue Operations doesn't have to
hide his own beliefs. He can read his Bible in peace.
Too bad he doesn't even want to look at it.
He has a new, state-of-the-art starship ready for its maiden
cruise— but the first officer is an ex-pirate, and the
crew fight over suddenly legal religious differences. The Crown
Marshals want their people aboard to hunt down Kesek's remnants.
His wife has taken his daughter away for fear of his beliefs.
And Brian has to wonder whether his God—who never seems
to be around—will ever give him a straight answer.
When his ship responds to a distress call on a remote planet,
Brian will find his faith and duty challenged in ways for which
he is unprepared.
Because Kesek is not gone. They are biding their time. And
they have found a weapon that can threaten the balance of power
in the galaxy . . .

Freeheads
By Kerry Nietz
Book 3 in The DarkTrench Saga
"Burroughs and Bradbury, it's a thrilling, deeply intelligent
and deeply spiritual journey through a future that is all too
real. Nietz does a fantastic job of creating characters, settings,
futuristic dialogue, and a fitting conclusion to one of my favorite
trilogies."
—Eric Wilson (Author: Fireproof, Field of Blood, A Shred
of Truth, etc.)

When investigative reporter Casey Wilkes unwittingly stumbles
upon a smuggling ring, she jeopardizes Homeland Security Jessie
Mitchell's cover and his life, as well as her own.
Secrets Under The Ice
Casey Wilkes didn't realize her simple human-interest story
would put her life at risk—again. After fleeing her home
and journalism job in Portland, she wanted to live under the
radar for a while. But when her interviewee starts dodging her
questions, her reporter instincts kick in and she finds herself
in over her head…
Homeland security agent Jesse Mitchell has been undercover
as an ice sculptor for months, trying to infiltrate a smuggling

more—especially his heart.
