Welcome to the Blog Tour for Aspen Crossroads by Janine Rosche, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!

Title: Aspen Crossroads
Series: A Whisper Canyon Romance #1
Author: Janine Rosche
Publisher: Berkley Books
Release Date: August 24, 2021
Genre: Western Romance

To protect those most vulnerable, Haven Haviland must trust her heart–and her regrets–to a mysterious newcomer in this moving contemporary romance.

Few in the community of Whisper Canyon have actually met Jace Daring, a handsome recluse who lives at Aspen Crossroads, the farm at the edge of town. But that doesn’t stop the rumors about the multiple women who live with him. He must protect the truth–that his farm-to-table restaurant will provide new livelihoods for women rescued from human trafficking–or he risks the safety and futures of those relying on him. But he can’t do it alone.

Haven Haviland has always been everyone’s safe place to fall until one mistake closes her counseling practice and leaves her open to the town’s gossip. Trusting men has gotten her in trouble before. However, accepting Jace’s job offer to mentor the rescued women seems like the perfect way to right her wrongs.

When the mayor’s campaign to clean up Whisper Canyon targets Aspen Crossroads, the restaurant comes under fire, dangers from the women’s pasts are awakened, and Haven’s sins are exposed for all to see. Jace would sacrifice himself to save Haven and the women under his care, but his efforts might not be enough. And in the end, it might not be the women most in need of saving after all.

Christian Romance books are one of my absolute favorite genres to read. Add in a Western Theme and it is a MUST read. Aspen Crossroads by Janine Rosche fits into all those catergories, so I recently had the opportunity to read it.

Jace Daring is a recluse who lives on Aspen Crossroads, a farm at the edge of town of the Whisper Canyon Community. Rumors around town is that he has several women visiting his Farm to Table Restaurant. The truth is that he has a rescue community for Women rescued from Human Trafficking. He cannot reveal this truth to the Community or the lives of these women would be at risk. Haven Haviland had a successful Counseling Center in town, until a mistake forced her to shut down her services. Jace asks Haven to be mentor to the Women who are living at Aspen Crossroads. Haven feels that mentoring the women would bring comfort to all and it also might help bring her reputation back. The Mayor of Whisper Canyon wants to "clean up the town" and he targets Aspen Crossroads. It seems he is unaware of the "cause" behind the Farm to Table Restaurant. Jace is now in a fight to save the women he and Haven are helping. Will Jace deter the Mayor of Whisper Canyon and save the cause of the restaurant and ultimately the Women and Haven? Will Jace and Haven find that they work together so well, that a romance flourishes?

WOW!! I was truly engrossed in this storyline from the first Chapter and it is definitely a "can't put it down" book! The author does a WONDERFUL job at tackling a sensitive topic in a very eloquent way. Jace and Haven both are people who have always "worked for the Community" and I really like how they come together for this cause of helping women out of Sex Trafficking and Homelessness. The relationship that develops from them working closely with each other is just amazing. This book is one of Forgivness, Faith and helping others. I LOVE how they don't allow the town gossip to get them down. They rely on God to help them through the difficult times. GREAT BOOK!
