“Miralee Ferrell delves deeply into the issues of bitterness and family discord and shines a bright light on God’s path to reconciliation for every hurting heart. You won’t be able to read this book without shedding a tear as you identify with one or more of these true-to-life characters.”
Louise M. Gouge, award-winning author
“The relationship between a mom and her daughter can be complicated. In Blowing on Dandelions, Miralee Ferrell writes a compelling novel about a single mother trying to raise two girls even as she works to mend the relationship with her own mother. Miralee’s story takes place more than a hundred years ago, but the poignant themes of friendship, healing, and forgiveness will inspire readers today.”
Melanie Dobson, award-winning author of Love Finds You in Liberty, Indiana and The Silent Order
“An interesting combination of the classic Western and prairie romances. No cowboys but a hero who loves his son and a heroine who loves her daughters. Mix in a boardinghouse, a mysterious boarder, and two matriarchs marking their territory. Katherine Galloway is a heroine to root for! And Miralee Ferrell is an author to watch!”
Lyn Cote, author of La Belle Christiane
“With characters who will both delight and dismay, Miralee Ferrell’s compelling style has created a story that explores relationships and the deeper emotions behind the conflicts of ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances.”
Martha Rogers, Texas Christian Writers Conference 2009 Writer of the Year
