#NewRelease Rebel Horse Rescue with Miralee Ferrell
Rebel Horse Rescue is in a different genre than what I normally post about. It is not a contemporary Christian romance, but rather a mystery book for middle grade readers.

Dubbing the horse “Rebel,” the friends set out to find the horse’s owner. Where did he come…
