About
The Steadfast Love Series
In
16th-century Europe, the Reformation rages
between Protestants and Catholics. Gwyneth, half-Dutch, flees from England to Holland
to escape the man who murdered her parents. When he follows her there and
insists he came to rescue her, will she trust this man called Dirk? When
tragedy strikes, will their steadfast love erode?
About The Author
Times
gone by snatch Rachelle Rea Cobb close, so she reads and writes about years long
ago--her passions include the Reformation, Revolutions, and romance. Rachelle
wrote the Steadfast Love series during college. Five months after she
graduated, she signed a three-book deal with her dream publisher, WhiteFire.
She's a homeschool grad, Oreo addict, and plots her novels while driving around
her dream car, a pick-up truck. In June 2016, she married a man with the same
name as her fictional hero, and they live happily
ever after in Small Town,
South. She is also the author of Write
Well, a guide for writers, which released on March 4th!

About The
Sound of Emeralds
What
once was blazing hatred has turned to lasting love, but could the union of a
wild heart with that of a lady ever result in more than heartache?
With the help of an old friend with uncertain loyalties, Dirk inches ever closer to clearing his name. Gwyneth throws her faith into good tidings and the promise of a future as a family. But an old evil comes to call, just as tragedy rips apart a fledgling truce. Enemies from the past and grief for the future threaten to tear asunder what God had brought together…
As the date of Dirk’s trial approaches, his fate and his family hang in the balance. Will he be proven innocent of Gwyneth’s parents’ murders—or separated from her forever? How much pain does it take to erode a love steadfast?

INTERVIEW
1. When and where did
you first get the idea for the Steadfast Love Series?
A
song I was listening to on the radio inspired the title of the first book. So I
wrote Diamonds, but when I finished
it, I realized to my great frustration that the characters weren’t done with
their story, even though I had been quite adamant that I would write a
stand-alone novel. But the story wasn’t finished, so I kept
2. Readers often pick out favorite quotes from a
novel. Do you have a favorite of your own from The Sound of Silver?
Yes!
In fact, my friend Mindy, a calligrapher, even created a beautiful piece of art
from one of my favorite quotes: “Within the pages of books one’s heart can be
revealed.”
3. Can you tell us what first drew you to
writing Inspirational Historical Romance?
My
first exposure to the genre came when I read Heartsong Presents novels when I was twelve. Those small books introduced
me to how much I believe in the power of story, especially love stories set in
times gone by.
4. I saw on your website that you also write
reviews, articles and offer editing services. What's one of your favorite
things beyond writing novels that you enjoy?
Editing
is such fun! I daresay I enjoy editing a page full of my own (or others’!)
words just as much as I enjoy splashing words onto a blank page. I recently
released my first nonfiction book, Write
Well, which is a short ebook designed as a guide writers!
