“Wow! Once you start reading, you won’t be able to put Carmen Peone’s Renewed Hope down. It is a heart-wrenching story of one abused mother’s struggle to save her precious child with help from unexpected friends, all set against the backdrop of the Native American culture. Don’t miss the final heart-pounding installment of her Seven Tine Ranch series as it brings closure to this moving trilogy.” —Jennifer Uhlarik, awardwinning author of Sand Creek Serenade and Love’s Fortress “Renewed Hope pulls the reader in immediately with a fast-paced scenario of child abduction and domestic violence. The story develops with significant tugs on the heartstrings of anyone who has ever been a victim or had to fight for their children. Chad is aptly portrayed as a strong but hesitant man who wants desperately to show Sophie the better side of men. The issue of Native American women disappearing and being abused is a major focus on a relatively unknown and ignored issue just really beginning to come to the forefront today. Excellent read!” —JoAnn Conner, author of the Detective Frank Riley Mysteries
“Renewed Hope tells the story of an Indigenous woman who endures spousal abuse, a bitter divorce, her sister’s murder, and the noncustodial kidnapping of her son. A cowboy offers to help find her little boy. With the help of tribal police and faith in Creator, they search for her ex-husband and son. Do second chances really exist? What does love look like? If you’re a fan of Native American culture, horses, and romance, you’ll love Renewed Hope.” —Candace Simar, Spur Award–winning author of the Abercrombie Trail series “Carmen Peone has written a bighearted love story of loss and survival. Suspenseful and fast-moving it addresses some of the most important issues of our time: missing and murdered Indigenous women, violence against women, and child safety. I laughed, cried, cheered, and felt deeply touched by both the characters and their stories. Love and heroic feats make Renewed Hope a powerful read.” —Milana Marsenich, author of Copper Sky and Beautiful Ghost “Renewed Hope is a romance in the shadows of the violence that stalks Indigenous women at an alarming rate. Peone is aware of these shocking statistics firsthand, yet crafts a story about how good people exist, love can triumph in the end, and faith through adversity can work wonders. As everyone knows, bad things can (and do!) happen to good people. Love, understanding, and the willingness to open new doors can work wonders—and second chances sometimes prove to be the best
