Friends, LOOK AT THIS!
reviewed Blue Skies, Blue Eyes and WOW was it a great review! Thank you
If you guys haven't watched this channel yet, you need to. Fiona, a charming Scottish woman reviews books and then moves to the kitchen to bake some delicious concoction that the book inspired her to create.
It's like a book club and a baking show rolled into one. She and her parents sample the things she makes.
The show is charming, homey, and heartwarming. If you haven't met Fiona yet, please, do yourselves a favor and tune in to A Book and A Bake. You'll be glad you did. š š§ ā¤ļø

If you've read The Blue Sky Series, you know that every book ends with a West Family Christmas party.
In book one, Blue Skies, Blue Eyes, Carrie and Clay had a pretty bad breakup in the summer.
When they run into each other at the tree lot a couple weeks before Christmas, they agree to talk.
Beau can always be counted on for awkward humor and he delivered.
If you haven't read it yet, why not? If you have, consider gifting someone on your Christmas list with a paperback copy.

Hi, I'm Cali Black's 15 year old son, Seth.
I know you're used to seeing her advertise her books on this account but today we're wondering if you'd like to buy some DoubleGood popcorn to help me raise money to go to Washington DC with my school in April.
My goal for this fundraiser is $1000 dollars. Half of everything I sell goes toward my trip.
The popcorn ships to you directly from the store.

SWEET WITH FAITH
The last time she was in Blue Sky, her world turned upside down.
Twenty years later, Carrie Carter is back in Montana to fix up her familyās long-abandoned cabin and ready it for sale. Laying some painful memories to rest in the process is an unpleasantry sheās prepared for but meeting her neighbor on the first night is a surprise. A hot, handsome-cowboy kind of surprise.
Clay West, son of one of Montanaās most successful ranchers, has big dreams, and his fame on the rodeo circuit as an amateur bull rider has him believing he can accomplish anything he sets his mind to. Well, almost anything. Heās ready to settle down but canāt seem to find the right woman.
Until an accident on a snowy night brings him face to face with his past.
When Clay stops to help the stranger on the road, it doesn't take long to realize sheās the girl he had a crush on when he was fifteen. Heās never forgotten her. Why doesnāt she remember him?
Unable to make sense of it, he doesnāt fill in the blanks for her, even while hoping to rekindle their old spark and make her fall in love with him. When she learns the truth, his plan spirals in the blink of an eye, and he has to come to grips with a situation he canāt control.
In book one of the four-book Blue Sky Series, come visit the small town of Blue Sky, Montana, and get to know the Wests, a family full of faith and love. Find out the lengths Clay goes to for the woman of his dreams and the steps Carrie takes to heal old woundsāall so that she and the handsome cowboy with the blue eyes can find the love they are both dreaming of.

What should I write today? So many projects, so little time.
I love the brief little interlude after releasing a book when I feel like I have so much freedom to decide what to work on. LOL.
Not really. Self-imposed deadlines are still deadlines and they'll be calling soon enough. For today though, I'm feeling free as a bird.
How many projects do you work on at the same time?
You know how this works - no sooner do we finish one book than we ask the author when the next one will be available! So here it is - a rough time frame.
Hoping to release book four in March or April. Lots of work to be done before that. Send happy thoughts!
Book 4 in the Blue Sky Series coming Spring 2024.

Time for an introduction post. If we haven't connected, drop me a comment, I'd love to say hi.
My name is Cali Black and I am an Indie author writing themes of hope and transformation into contemporary western romance stories.
I strive for unique ideas, sometimes unconventional plot structures, realistic characters, and heartwarming happily ever afters.
I write Sweet With Faith and Sweet With Sizzle for the more and less conservative readers among us.
I borrow songspiration from country music, include places Iāve been or want to go, and incorporate riches from my own childhood growing up in a small town.
Iām one book away from having my first series published and have about 20 more projects in various stages of completion lined up on the runway waiting for takeoff.
If you read my books you will probably laugh, almost certainly cry, maybe cringe a little, and hopefully feel like youāve spent quality time with good people in beautiful places.
If you havenāt done so already,
I invite you to join the Cali Back reading family today.

Hello friends, author Cali Black here.
The Perfect Storm, book three in the Blue Sky Series released yesterday!
I'm very excited of course, but instead of just giving you the link, I thought I'd take a moment to let you know a few things that I, as the author, loved including in this book.
This book is a love triangle. Two of the main characters are Native American but the third is white. I loved writing a cross-cultural relationship into this story, because I am married cross-culturally. I loved portraying two good, decent, yet very different men for the heroine to choose from. (Fair warning - from betas to arcs there have been lots of strong feelings on both sides about who she should pick!)
The overarching theme of the book is hope - overcoming trials in life to find success and peace. So many of us can relate to that.
There are secrets in this book. A backstory that is angsty and difficult, but always pointing toward something good.
And finally, I loved writing in a sense of purpose the couple found together by the end of the book. There are always ways to impact the world beyond ourselves.
A few more notes to help you determine if you'd like to read The Perfect Storm: There are several descriptions of the heroine passionately kissing both men. Some may be bothered by that.
This is a longer than average romance right around 147,000 words. It is written multi-POV, and has a lot of angst as well as subtle Christian faith themes.
The Perfect Storm can be read stand alone but I recommend reading Blue Skies, Blue Eyes and The Game - books one and two in the series - first for maximum enjoyment as it is a family story.
If you like contemporary small-town western romance I invite you to give this series a try. And drop me a comment below to introduce yourself. I love meeting new readers!
All three books are available in KU.
