The main and secondary characters in *Beyond This Moment* instantly become people to care about... The themes of racial tolerance and second chances are as timely today as they were back in the early days of Colorado's history." **~ Romantic Times, 4 1/2 star review** "This second novel in the Timber Ridge Reflections series delves into issues of deception and the consequences of dishonesty. Alexander's reoccurring theme of trusting in faith and believing in forgiveness echoes throughout. Both Molly and James keep secrets, and their trust in one another is tested several times.
