River Falls – Whispers of Truth Valerie M. Bodden never fails to fill my heart with beautiful love stories between characters and between characters and God. Every single book of hers that I read, is like I’m gaining new friends (if only the characters were real! haha). Whispers of Truth is a book about determination,

Bless my mama’s heart. She is very supportive of my writing endeavors. She’s always sharing my new books with everyone she can. But when it comes time for her to explain the books to people, she doesn’t always get the stories right. Which is why I say bless her heart. Because although she supports me
