Our Talented Authors

Get to know the brilliant authors who craft the enchanting tales and create the adult coloring books published by Sterling Ridge Press LLC.

Tara Baisden

Tara Baisden is a well-loved author celebrated for her heartwarming Christian Inspirational Romance novels that delve into the beauty of love, faith, and relationships. Hailing from a small town in southern West Virginia, Tara draws endless inspiration from the breathtaking Appalachian Mountains she calls home. Her stories are known for their relatable characters, cozy settings, and uplifting themes that linger long after the last page.

Tara’s creative spirit doesn’t stop at writing. As the designer of over 60 adult coloring books, she brings her artistic touch to vibrant, stress-relieving designs. When she’s not crafting stories or drawing, you can find her quilting intricate patterns, tending her garden, or curled up with a good book in her mountaintop cabin.

In 2025, Tara will debut her new Contemporary Cowboy Romance series set in the stunning Sapphire Mountain region of Montana, promising swoon-worthy cowboy (and cowgirl!) love stories with a rugged twist. Whether she’s weaving tales of faith, stitching quilts, or nurturing her garden, Tara’s passion for beauty and storytelling shines through in everything she does.

Vivian Belle is a talented author known for her sweeping Historical Christian Romance novels set against the untamed beauty of the American frontier. With a deep love for history and storytelling, she brings to life resilient heroines, steadfast heroes, and faith-filled journeys in the vast, rugged landscapes of the past.

Nestled in the majestic mountains of northern West Virginia, Vivian finds endless inspiration in the rolling hills, winding rivers, and boundless sky that mirror the spirit of her stories. When she’s not writing, she enjoys kayaking on tranquil waters, hiking through breathtaking mountain trails, and, of course, getting lost in a good book.

Vivian’s novels capture the heart of faith, love, and perseverance—where strong women and honorable men overcome life’s trials to find hope, home, and happily-ever-after. Whether she’s exploring the great outdoors or crafting her next frontier romance, Vivian’s passion for adventure and storytelling shines through in every word she writes.
