Author Bio Spotlight: Cara Putman







The first line on Cara Putman’s website is: "I’m a woman living a dream God planted in my heart years ago". That dream has come to fruition in mind blowing ways. Cara’s first book, Canteen Dreams was the American Christian Fiction Writer’s (ACFW) book of the year for a short historical. Sandhill Dreams followed it a year later and was a finalist for the same award. With nine books in print and one due in March of 2010, Cara is far from bored. She is a wife, mother of three, lawyer and author, living in Indiana.
Cara’s books focus primarily on WWII and
the conflicts on the home front. But if you are interested in mysteries, she has two entitled, Deadly Exposure and Trial by Fire (expect a review soon on this title) Her WWII romances are published by Heartsong Presents and her mysteries by Steeple Hill Love Inspired Suspense.
I have read two of Cara’s books and am working on a third. She has a wonderful voice about her writing that is unique and gripping. Her characters have human qualities and sing out for a reader’s approval. I love her stories for their growth of characters, the interaction between hero and heroine (she knows how to write a good Christian romance) and the faith element she incorporates to grow and develop her characters. All this by showing the reader the subtle changes in each life.
Cara has a wonderful blog I love to visit, which she updates nearly everyday. Often you will find a contest going on for a favorite author of hers. Visit her at www.carasmusings.blogspot.com
