Hello, reader friends! Author friend Mindy Obenhaus is joining us for a quick q&a as part of a JustRead Publicity Tours blog tour and giveaway celebrating A Father’s Promise!
about the author

When she’s not writing, she enjoys spending time with her grandchildren, cooking, and watching copious amounts of the Hallmark Channel.
q&a
Share five favorites.
M: dessert – Cupcakes!
magazine – The Pioneer Woman Magazine
place to visit – Ouray, Colorado
series – Jessica Keller’s Red Dog Ranch series was one of the best series I’ve read in years
book cover – I’d have to say A Father’s Promise. I mean, what’s not to like? Adorable baby, gorgeous setting… Oh, and the guy is kind of hunky, too. ?
B: Oh look! Five reasons why we get along so well!
Describe yourself in five words.
M: Simply hopeful, faithfully loving life.
B: That’s beautiful, Mindy!
What are some of the challenges you faced while writing A Father’s Promise?
M: My greatest challenge was coming up with the setting. My previous books were all set in the real town of Ouray, Colorado, but my editor wanted me to do a series in Texas, where I live. So creating a fictitious town was new for me. Ultimately, I pulled from several small towns to give Bliss the feel I wanted.

B: Gracious, building a town is no small feat!
What did you learn or discover about yourself while writing A Father’s Promise?
M: I wouldn’t say I learned it, but I was reminded what a great brainstorming buddy my husband is. ?
B: Aw, so sweet! Good for him and for you!
What book are you reading right now?
M: I’m currently reading Hope Between Us by Christy LaShea.
B: Oh boy! New to me author!
What is your next release and/or what are you working on now?
M: I’m currently in the early stages of book 3, Paisley’s story. Christa’s story is book 2 and will be out in March 2021.
B: Get all the stories you can out of your sweet little town, my friend! Thank you so much for taking the time to visit with us, Mindy!
