About the Author
With 105 books (5,000,000+ copies in circulation!), best-selling author Loree Lough's stories have been compared to those by Nicholas Sparks, and she has been dubbed by readers and reviewers as “a gifted writer whose stories touch hearts and change lives.”
With a long list of industry awards, it isn't likely this prolific author will ever retire...not even to her cozy li'l cabin in the Allegheny Mountains. She loves to hear from her readers and personally answers every letter sent to http://www.loreelough.com/. Author Interview with Loree LoughReview
Acclaimed author Loree Lough has once again created a beautiful and touching story in her second instalment of the Secrets of Sterling Street, Guardians of the Heart. This novel will touch readers’ from page one as they enjoy the enthralling journey of the relationship between Nell and Asa blossom from trust and friendship to possible love. Throughout the novel Loree has brought her characters to life in a true and heartwarming way. I would recommend this novel to Christian, historical fiction, romance readers.

We're sharing the Grand Finale for
Guardians of the Heart By Loree Lough Nell and Asa have guarded their hearts, but to let love in, they'll have to let go. We hope you enjoyed finding out more about their story. If you didn't get a chance to get to each stop, you can go back and check them out now... Launch - Author Interview And how do you develop your deep POV? I love living in the heads of my characters, and accomplish it (and avoid ‘head hopping’) by writing each scene from a specific character’s point of view. It’s almost as though I take up residence in their brains (like a parasite! LOL). When I’m thinking their thoughts, reacting to what other characters do and say, deep POV is a lot easier. Bookworm Lisa - Review "Loree Lough has written this story in an easy to read voice. The pacing is excellent. She kept my attention and I really came to like the characters." Worthy2Read - Nonna's Authentic Spaghetti Sauce As any ‘on a deadline’ author can tell you, we’re really, really good at procrastinating. We tidy drawers, organize closets, poke around in our flower beds. And we cook. One of my favorite recipes was handed down by my Italian grandmother’s family. I hope you’ll enjoy it, too! Zerina Blossom's Books - They Called Her Shoog Guest Post The summer I turned ten, a pretty little redheaded girl moved into the house on the corner. Her parents and older siblings called her Shoog…and it was Shoog who introduced the kids on our block to a whole new way to spend our summer days... Reading Is My SuperPower - Review "A sweet heartfelt romance that reminds us of the importance of forgiveness – of other people and especially of ourselves. With true, likable characters and a plot brimming with all the great elements of a story, Guardians of the Heart will gently refresh your soul." Christy's Cozy Corners - A Promise to Jake, Part 1 When a mysterious package arrives shortly before Christmas, a wealthy author is forced to remember what’s truly important about the holy day…and about life. Writing Pearls - Review "This was a surprising out of bounds romance. It was clean, well-written, with strong characters that become a part of your reality." underneath the covers - Excerpt Regrettably, no one was hiring. Few things scared her more than the prospect of being homeless and destitute. Nell sat on the steps of the bank, held her head in her hands and tried to pray. She’d said countless prayers for others—in church, others on her knees before bed—but couldn’t remember the last time she’d prayed for herself. Did she remember how? Mel's Shelves - Review "I loved Asa and Nell! Asa puts on a rough front but does care about others while trying not to. He feels guilt for some things he did in the past and needs to learn to forgive himself. Nell was sweet from the beginning! What I loved about this book is that the author didn't just tell me; she showed me." Tell Tale Book Reviews - Excerpt Oh, what he wouldn’t give to go back in time to the little house on the outskirts of Denver that always smelled of fresh-baked bread, where he’d never gone hungry and never felt cold, thanks to his ma’s talent for turning scraps of cloth into warm quilts. Babs Book Bistro - Review "I could not put this book down it was wonderful. . . . A nice relaxing read that brings out the love and coziness." Mommabears Book Blog - A Promise to Jake, Part 2 He stared at the blinking cursor. "I've let you down big time, Jake," he said, eyes on the blank white screen. Maybe telling his friend’s story would ease his conscience. Squaring his shoulders, Homer pulled out the keyboard drawer and gave his knuckles one last crack, and began to type: Wishful Endings - A Promise to Jake, Part 3 FIVE YEARS LATER: "Homer, schweetheart," Bobby said, "so what's up with your answering machine? I've been trying to get hold of you for days." "Don't have one up here." Don't want one, don't need one. Reading Is My SuperPower - Special Author Interview Me: You are such a prolific writer! (5,000,000 copies in circulation – 108 books, 72 short stories, and over 2500 articles in print) Where do you get your inspiration for so many new plots and characters? Loree: Inspiration is everywhere. Literally. I’ve come up with story ideas while reading a dog-eared old magazine in the doctor’s waiting room. At the grocery store. In the movie theater. Here at home, watching the TV news or reading the Sunday paper. Sitting on a bench at the soft ice cream parlor, listening to the conversation of patrons on the next bench. Talking to a neighbor over the back fence. While on hold to make corrections to a DirecTV statement. I could go on (and on!), but I think you get the idea! Singing Librarian Books - Review (Author Interview here) "Throughout the novel Loree has brought her characters to life in a true and heartwarming way. I would recommend this novel to Christian, historical fiction, romance readers." Colorimetry - Excerpt They carried their bowls to a nearby bench and sat down to enjoy the treat, and Asa realized immediately that they were facing the wrong direction. Fifty yards due north, he had a direct line of sight to where Gus and Nell sat, munching fried chicken, corn bread, and apple slices. Oughta be you sitting there, he thought.
