About the author

Leigh Bale is a Publisher's Weekly best selling author of inspirational contemporary romance, romantic suspense and medieval romance. She won the prestigious Golden Heart in 2006. More recently, she was a finalist winner of the Gayle Wilson Award of Excellence, the Bookseller's Best Award, and the Write Touch Award. She is the daughter of a retired U.S. forest ranger, holds a B.A. in History with honors, loves grandkids, spending time with family, weeding the garden with her dog Sophie, and watching the little sagebrush lizards that live in her rock flowerbeds. Married in 1981 to the love of her life, Leigh and her professor husband now have two wonderful children and two grandchildren. But life has not always been rosy. In 1996, Leigh's seven year-old daughter was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. In the dark years that followed, God never abandoned them. After six surgeries, two hundred and eighty-four stitches, a year of chemo, and a myriad of other difficulties, Leigh's daughter is now a grown woman and considered less than 1% survivorship in the world for her type of tumor. Life is good! Truly the Lord has blessed Leigh's family. She now transfers the love and faith she's known into the characters of her stories. Readers who have their own trials can find respite within the uplifting message of Leigh's books. You can reach Leigh at LeighBale.com.

- Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2013What a powerful story of pain, loss, and finding God's love to carry us through those times and others!! For us to cleave to each other and not drift away from each other....
- Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2017Great story
- Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2014Leigh Bale does a masterful job of writing a story that is so tender, a tale of love, yet very real. This book is one of those hard to put down. You hope you know what the ending might he, but have to keep reading to see how it unfolds and where it takes you. I especially enjoyed the private thoughts of the characters representing truth and light. They speak hope and whisper to remind of truths known but shortsightedly forgotten. A beautiful story and well worth the read.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2013The Healing PlaceThis is an amazing book.
I have to say in this review I read this book at least 2 and 1/2 years ago and I can still remember it well. It touched me so much.
Leigh does a fantastic job on making you feel your part of the story and what I mean is I felt I was right there with this little girl getting her treatments and with the father as he wanted to do everything right for his little girl.
I recommend this book to anyone who wants a good love story and a story of hope.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2008I love the Love Inspired romance novels, and The Healing Place by Leigh Bale was wonderful. The interactions between Emma, Mark, and Angie were wonderful. I started reading it before class and only put it down because I had other obligations. It's definately a get your kleenex ready type of book!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2012I must warn you that you will cry many times throughout this book!
This book is about a little girl named Angie who has brain cancer. Her parents are divorced because her mother couldn't stand having a sickly child - never even wanted her in the first place. Her father is so busy trying to work, take her back and forth to doctors, and hold down a single-parent household. And he would do anything for Angie!
That's why he showed up in Dr. Emma Shields' office begging her to take his daughter as an oncology case. But Emma Shields had taken her last pediatric case when her son, also a cancer patient, had died. But when her heart suddenly warmed toward Angie and her one-time high school sweetheart, she found herself taking on another case.
This book was great. It showed healing for all three characters. Emma's marriage had ended when her husband blamed her for their son's death. We don't ever hear from him. But the most heart-wrenching thing is Angie's relationship (or lack of) with her mother. It's so sad, you can't help but question why? But this is a book of faith-renewed, and before it's over their faith is renewed. Of course, you have to expect that in a Love Inspired book!
I must say, though, that I didn't agree with everything that happened in this book. Some things near the end didn't mesh. I think if a couple circumstances had gone differently, the impact of Emma's renewed faith would have been much more believable.
But the book is EXCELLENT! This would be a good read for people who are struggling in their faith after some sort of tragedy happened in their lives.
