Ms. Warrens authentic characters discover their strengths and weaknesses as they succumb to romance in Big Sky country. The subplot about displaced children enriches the books take-away value while the suspense and mystery make it difficult to put Finding Stephanie down.

Stefanie Noble thought the genetic of rebel had conveniently skipped her. But just when she should be content, her heart starts acting up. All she can think about is how her brothers have found their happy endings. Maybe, her mistake from the past has taken all her chances. Whew... Lincoln Cash just barley escaped the tabloid that would ruin his career. How could he have a handicap? He's a superhero. He left the scared, little boy in his past, thank you. He isn't thrilled about deteriorating back to a weakling. Gideon has made a few mistakes...okay, let's not lie to ourselves...he has made a boatload. But things are changing sort of. His sisters are opening up to the Noble family, Lincoln Cash is treating him like a decent human being, and he kind of thinks he might be worth something by the way the pretty waitress sticks up for him. This chick flick that Stefanie is experiencing is about to get overturned. Linc's action/adventure heart is about to hit a bump in the road. Gideon is about to lose everything he has scraped so hard to hold onto... and that's just for starters. Thats a wrap on the Noble series. Susan May Warren created heart thumping mysteries, sweet, forever loves, eye opening scriptures, and a simple, cowboy tale that you can reacquaint yourself with every now and then.

Louis L'Amour meets, oh, maybe Linda Chaikin. This is a western setting with romance and suspense swirled through. Fun to have a series about the different members of a family.

I started reading Susan Mae Warren with the Team Hope Series and have been nothing but, excited to read her other books! I just loved the Noble Legacy Series and had a hard time finishing "Finding Stephanie" because I didn't want it to end. Warren has such a way with words that keeps you glued to the pages.

I have read the other two book to this series and they made me go back in time when I was raised on a farm. The author Susan May Warren keeps you want to see what is going to happen. Really enjoyed it and wander why I ever moved to San Diego.

I enjoyed the first two books in the Noble Legacy Series and waited so long to read the last one. I knew Stepanie's story would be one of my favorites. I really enjoy Susan May Warren's writing style and have read many of her other books. This series is a good read and in fact I was sadden to reach the end. If you like the outdoors and horses you'll love this book. Good read

Susan May Warren has another winner with "Finding Stefanie"! Its a great story with a good mystery and of course romance thrown in as well. It is a good wrap-up to the series. I'll look forward to new books by this author as I really like her writing style.

I enjoy Susans writing a lot. In fact, her earlier novel Happily Ever After remains one of my all-time favorite reads. And I loved Reclaiming Nick and Taming Rafe, so I looked forward to this third books release in the Noble Legacy collection. And I wasnt disappointed.First off, Susan has an amazing handle on characterization. So right from the start you know her characters are going to seem real.Specifically, I loved her secondary romance thread in Finding Stefanie. She let us watch 18-year-old Gideons tender-hearted interactions with Libby, a 19-year-old character. Susan has a deep understanding of the human heart and our motivations (good or bad). She always believably pens her wide spectrum of characters. Her primary romance was delicious, too. Love those Beta heroes (mostly because its not the norm). I appreciate Susans heart to see people find Gods love for them. She skillfully weaves messages of hope and redemption into her stories. I also appreciate her servants heart toward other writers. Shes an encourager and teacher, a mentor and friend to many in the Christian writing community. Can't wait for her next series.

I think that Stefanie's book was my favorite out of the whole series. I'm not sure if it's because she was the only girl and I felt that I could relate to her the most. She is very strong willed and is completely capable of taking care of herself. I think she's actually the most "noble" of all the Noble siblings. There's nothing in her past for her to be ashamed of. I liked Gideon's story as well involving his relationship with Libby. I didn't like her dad too well because for a pastor he was rather quick to judge. You'd think he'd be willing to look for the good in someone first before trying to kick them out of town. I felt in the beginning that Gideon was being too proud by refusing help but in the end he gave in because of his sisters.The mystery was very well played throughout the book. I missed the small clues about who it was so I was surprised at the end to see who the perpetrator had been. I liked Lincoln as well. He was a multi-dimensional character with a lot of secrets that he had been hiding for years. He and Stefanie had good chemistry throughout the whole book. The only thing that is still baffling me is to why Stefanie and Rafe never acknowledge Cole as their brother even though from the first book we find out that he actually is. My only guess is that they still have not found this out.Regardless, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. While I am sad to see the series end, I felt like this book tied up many loose ends and had a satisfying ending. I shall miss the adventures of the Noble kids and the life of ranching.

I loved this book! She has definitely written a wonderful series. I think "Finding Stephanie" was my favorite. I couldn't put it down. I loved how the author used the insecurities and doubts of 2 different individuals and showed how with God it could all work out. I would definitely recommend this to my friends.

I thought it was a great book. In the other 2 books, Stephanie seemed to be the one in control and had it all together. To find that she had her own insecurities was interesting. I like the way She and Lincoln Cash was able to help each other to face their insecurities and allow God to be in the mix. I also like the way the story had a good ending for the North children. We need to see more happy endings in real life.

Susan May Warren has another hit novel on her hands with Finding Stefanie, the third installment in the Noble family saga. It is the wonderful tale of Stefanie Noble, twin of superstar bull riding champion, Rafe Noble and younger sister of Silver Buckle co-owner, Nick Noble. Living in her brothers shadows never used to bother Stefanie, but lately shes unsure of where she belongs. Enter Lincoln Cash, movie star and Stefanies new neighbor. Will these two develop a relationship out of the crushes they have on each other? Or will they clash over Hollywood coming to Montana?Its easy to fall in love with one of Susans booksespecially when you already adore the characters from previous novels in the series! It was wonderful to concentrate on Stefanies character and get to know her a bit better. Susan also crafts the sub-plot stories that weave throughout the book with great care and detail, making these characters as valuable to the novel as the leading men and ladies. This is a wonderful novel that emphasizes second chances, forgiveness and truth and teaches the reader that God plants dreams in our hearts for a reason. I devoured the novel in just two days and was truly sad to have to say farewell to the Nobles.

The conclusion to the Noble Legacy series is well worth the wait! I could identify with Stefanie Noble as someone who nearly gave up on the fruition of her dreams and struggles to see herself as God's beloved, and I found myself commisserating with Lincoln as he struggled to figure out if a disabled man could have true purpose. The plot in which these two characters find themselves is great as well, and the double romance, as well as the glimpses into the hearts of Gideon and Libby, was a great touch. I must say, though, that my favorite part was the suspense--Susie has done a wonderful job with it on this one. I thought I knew who the whodunit was, but I ended up suspecting two or three innocent characters, also, so the mystery embedded in the book was something of a challenge. I sometimes felt that Lincoln's problems--his past, Alyssa, and his disability--were piled on top of each other, making true development of any of them difficult to do, but Susie managed to swing it, for which I admire her. A great wrap-up to a great series!
