Blowing on Dandelions

Book 1 – Love Blossoms in Oregon

by Miralee Ferrell

{ABOUT THE BOOK}
 

In 1880 Oregon, Katherine Galloway, a widow, must raise her daughters and run a boardinghouse alone. But when her controlling, outspoken mother comes to live with her, and with her older daughter who has just turned thirteen, the pressure on Katherine becomes close to overwhelming. She must find the faith, wisdom, and courage to transform her life and relationships, especially now that new-in-town widower, Micah Jacobs, begins to capture her heart.

Ferrell speaks to women’s heartfelt struggles—from family dysfunction to single parenthood—-while offering faith-filled hope, all wrapped in an uplifting, true-to-life romance.

“Ferrell has created characters you’ll root for, and the attitudes feel appropriate for the time in this tender romance. The relationships of mothers and daughters in this story speak deeply of the need for acceptance, love, and respect from one’s parents.” ~ Susan Page Davis, award-winning author of the Prairie Dreams and Texas Trails series

“This is more than a heart-tugging romance—though it is that—but it is also a mind-challenging read that will leave us in a different place than when we began.” ~ Kathi Macias, author of Red Ink

“In Katherine Galloway, Miralee Ferrell has created a woman who models grace. As the story unfolds, readers see Katherine's faith lived out in a way that's authentic, challenging, and encouraging.” ~ Stephanie Grace Whitson, author of The Quilt Chronicles series

{REVIEWS}

“Ferrell examines the many facets of love and relationships in this sweetly moving historical romance, the first in her LOVE BLOSSOMS IN OREGON series. … Katherine's interactions—with her mother, her daughter, the church quilting club, and the new man in town—are explored in a wonderfully realistic fashion….” ~ Publishers Weekly

“I think one of the best themes behind the book, is the way Katherine handles her very difficult mother. She manages to show what the bible says in honoring thy mother. A fantastic example of ordinary life working to live out the gospel. I would recommend this book to anyone, including my teenage daughter. It was a delightful story that captured not only my attention but my heart as well.” ~ Living It Out by Shai
