Thanks for entering! I loved reading all of your comments and finding out which Andi books you like best. Stay tuned for the Circle C and Goldtown SPRING writing contest. The calendar says June, but honestly, I think I would like to launch it earlier now that spring is just around the corner. Plus, a Virginia Foster character quiz is coming up next week and a fun Word Search. So, stay tuned!

I’m super excited to launch this double-whammy giveaway. Why? Reason 1) Andi’s blog has surpassed 200 followers and over 20,000 page views. Okay. Update. I counted the page views wrong. I forgot about the views from 2021, so that means I have over 72,000 page views (but there is still a “2” in that!) Reason 2) The release of the two new Milestones books, Yosemite at Last and Stranger in the Glade. So, we have a “2” in 200, a “2” in 72,000, and a “2” in two new books. The only thing that remain is to have two winners!

Enter the Giveaway = Two Winners!

It’s easy! Leave a comment about your favorite Andi book and include your first name. If you have never read a Circle C book, comment on how you found out about this giveaway. You do not need to leave your email in the comment so long as you include the email somewhere. (I think there is a box for it that says your email will not be published.) If you already follow Andi’s blog, I already have your email. I’m excited to share the two new books! If you don’t win, you can still buy the books! Giveaway runs March 11-17 and ends at 6pm Pacific Time. Winners (2) will be chosen in a random drawing using random.org. They will be notified and announced the next day, March 18. U.S. mailing addresses only, please.

Something Fun

These new books include Andi’s favorite recipes from over the years, from sugar cookies to peach pie and cobbler, to a chicken pie and even rattlesnake stew (you can use beef, LOL). Sourdough starter and sourdough pancakes and biscuits. Plus old-fashioned hot chocolate and lemonade. A delicious addition to these short-story collections. Stay tuned, as Mrs. M plans to share recipes and photos of some of the recipes because she has tried most (if not all) of them! (She shared the cobbler recipe on March 4.)

Sample the Books

You can read excerpts of both books on the Circle C website >>

  1. My 2 youngest daughters are still working through the Circle C Beginnings books and curriculum, and loving it! They get so excited to work through it. I love that these books have helped them develop a love of reading. My 2 oldest girls will even sometimes listen to the stories, and since they enjoy them as well (and all 4 of my girls are horse obsessed), I plan on purchasing the books for older girls as well. 🙂

  2. My favorite book is “The Last Ride” because it’s a story of forgiveness and healing. But all of the books are amazing!!!

  3. My favorite Andi books are The Last Ride and Courageous Love! I love The Last Ride because Riley comes back and helps Andi through her grief when no one else can. It demonstrates how friendship can be used by the Lord to bring healing and comfort. Courageous Love is one of my favorites because of how brave Andi is when she and Lucy are kidnapped, and, of course, because Andi and Riley fall in love.

  4. All of your books have been terrific. A safe read along with educational and fun. It’s been awhile, but I recall The Last Ride being a favorite.
    Keep up the great writing!

  5. I have enjoyed all of the Andi books but my favorite would have to be dangerous decisions.

  6. It’s really, really, hard to decide, but I think my favorite would be the Memory Creek books. I really enjoy reading about all of Andi and Riley’s little adventures together on the new ranch. And I can’t wait to read all of the new stories.

  7. My favorite one is The Last Ride. It was the perfect bittersweet mixture, and I loved the forgiveness aspect.

  8. I heard about this giveaway from being on your email list.

    I subscribed to the email list in hope of learning of a sale and somehow being able to afford your fabulous books at the same time. 🙂

  9. Its hard to pick a favorite book (because they are all awesome) but I would have to say The Dangerous Decision and Courageous Love are at the top. I know this might be hard for you to answer because as an author, its hard to pick favorites, but which one is your favorite? And if you can´t answer that one, which one was the most fun for you to write? Thanks for hosting this!! 😉

  10. Hi!!!! I love your books so much!! I read them ALL the time! They never get old. My favorite book is probably “Family Secret” or ” The Last Ride” Keep writing, Love You!!!!

  11. I heard about the giveaway because I subscribe to your emails. I have purchased all the Goldtown books for my kids and want to get all of the Circle C books. I enjoy your short stories and Andi’s blog posts.

  12. My favorite book is “Courageous Love”. Or “Price of Truth”. It’s hard to pick just one! I look forward to the sourdough recipes–I love baking with my sourdough starter!

  13. Never read an Andi book but how I found out the Andi books is through a free book giveaway signup. I’m so glad I found that. It was through the newsletter from the free book promo I found this book. I never knew about this blog. When I found this blog I of course followed it.
    I look forward to getting know more about the Andi books.
    Would love to read & review the Andi books in print format sometime.

  14. My favorite is definitely Courageous Love! My favorite parts in Courageous Love is the part when Riley kissed Andi and she slapped him even though she didn’t want to stop kissing him, the pick-up trick, and when Andi tells Riley that she loves him and that she will marry him.

  15. My favorite Circle C book is definitely Last Ride. I love how Riley helps Andi overcome her anger at her brothers and pretty much the world. He uses his own lost horse story and his overcoming it to show her that it is possible to live through the grief and pain. I love how he says that he felt led to bring her to the place where she lost Taffy. It really proves that everything is on God’s timeline and anything is possible through Him. Thank you so much, Mrs. M for giving us these wonderful Christian books, which are so difficult to find now!

  16. Hi! I found out about the Andi books from my older sister who is a HUGE fan! I have not read them yet but am planning to soon. I’m sure they are really great and I’m really looking forward to reading them!

  17. This is a tough decision since all of your books are so good, but I think my favorite is probably Courageous Love. I enjoy the way Andi leans on God during the kidnapping and after, and I also like the way Lucy helps her realize that she does in fact love Riley.

  18. I like all of your books! I think if I had to decide, they would be The Last Ride and Courageous Love. I like the forgiveness aspect of The Last Ride. I also like where it says Andi is very glad Riley’s not her brother! Courageous Love is so engrossing! I like the part where Riley tells Andi he doesn’t want her to tell their kids about their first kiss where she stopped his foot and slapped him in the face! All the books are so good! Definitely keep writing!

  19. My kids have loved circle c and gold Town adventures. It has been a breath of fresh air in our homeschool this year!

  20. My favorite Andi book is Dangerous Decision. I love how Andi puts herself in Virginia’s place because she knows it is the right thing to do.

  21. I’m Brianna and my favorite books are Price of Truth and Dangerous Decision. I love the Andi and Goldtown books!!

  22. My favorite book is Courageous Love! I like the adventure and suspense throughout the entire book!

  23. My favorite book is Courageous Love, too! I love the adventure! Also, it gives me giddy feelings when Andi tells Riley yes for the courting. So cool!

  24. Hello! I’m Gabriella and I’d have to say I like Courageous Love the best! Maybe there will be more stories on Andi’s courtship in the future? = )

  25. My favorite Circle C book is Courageous Love, because of its love story. I also really like the Memory Creek books and reading about Andi’s marriage and parenthood life, so I’m excited about these two new books! Thanks for having this fun giveaway!

    1. Oh, I know they are just updated from the original books–I just meant that I’m excited that they’re extended 🙂 Thanks again!

  26. Pick a favorite…that’s a hard one!
    Maybe The Last Ride? It’s wrenching, yet turns around so satisfactorily. Also liked the online story, Trouble at the Lineshack. Haven’t read the final book – yet.

  27. I enjoy them all, but my favorites would have to be “The Dangerous Decision” and “The Price of Truth.

  28. My favorite book is Price of Truth. I love how Andi is willing to tell the truth not matter what the consequences. Thanks Mrs. Marlow for wonderful books. Kristina

  29. We love ALL of the Circle C Beginnings books. My daughter and I have read them multiple times and she even had a Circle C birthday party!

  30. My daughters love all the circle c books but i am partial to the very first series where Andi is so little and says the cutest things!
