Rhonda Dragomir is a multimedia creative who treasures her fairy tale life in Central Kentucky, insisting her home is her castle, even if her prince refuses to dig a moat. She has published works in several anthologies and periodicals, and her debut novel, When the Flames Ravaged, is published by Barbour Books with a release date of February 29, 2024.

Rhonda has garnered numerous writing awards for both fiction and nonfiction, including her selection as 2019 Writer of the Year by Serious Writer, Inc. In 2020 and 2022, she was also a finalist in ACFW’s Genesis Contest in the historical romance category.

In all her writing, Rhonda answers the question most of us ask at one time or another: “Does God really love me?” Circumstances of life sometimes lie about God and cause us to doubt His love or His power. When her characters are forced into the crucible of decision, Rhonda allows them to wrestle with questions everyone asks in a crisis. Her ultimate goal—and joy—is to help readers strengthen their faith that God will never leave or forsake them.

When the Flames Ravaged

World War II widow Evelyn Benson, lives in Hartford with her brother and his family. She has never questioned God—until the circus fire of 1944. Among the circus roustabouts is a reluctant clown hiding from his murky past behind grease paint, but God offers Hank a fresh start. When the big top is consumed by an inferno, Evelyn’s whole family is among the hundreds who are dead or missing. Unbeknownst to her, Hank witnessed her brother’s heroism during the tragic minutes before the tent collapsed. Love blooms while the couple searches for her family, but God also searches their hearts. Will they abandon their belief in a powerful, benevolent God? Or will faith and love rise from the ashes?
