Finding Wren: A Firefighter, Running, Slow burn, Faith Based Romance (Strike Team Faith)

I wasn’t looking for her. But every trail kept leading me back. I came home to Whispering Gap to build the Strike Team, help my Ma, and settle into a quiet rhythm. But the woman I nearly collided with on the trails is Callie Jo Thomas, the guarded runner with storm-touched eyes and a past this small town hasn’t let her outrun. She keeps to the trails. I run them every morning. She hides behind her art. I see the strength in her brush strokes. And every accidental encounter feels less like coincidence and more like God drawing a straight line between us. Then the fires start—small, strategic, and too close to her home. Someone is watching this town, and maybe watching her. And suddenly the girl who doesn’t ask for help is the one I’m praying hardest to protect. But this isn’t just about danger. Callie Jo has spent years rebuilding her life alone. I’ve spent years learning that faith isn’t quiet—it’s steady. And somewhere between running trails, late-night prayers, and the smoke rising over Starlight Ridge, we start finding our way toward something neither of us expected. We’ve got a town on edge, a past trying to pull her under, and one small hope anchoring us both. Finding Wren is a clean, faith-filled, slow-burn romance featuring: Running partners who never planned to fall for each other Firefighter suspense woven through small-town life Found family, healing friendship, and quiet chemistry that grows loud Faith, forgiveness, and learning to stop running from grace Perfect for readers who love clean faith-based romance with heart, small-town hope, and a hero who shows his love in steady, intentional ways.
