Moira St. Clair has done exactly what her father forbade her to do: chased her dreams to sing on the stage. But even as her star rises, she becomes more vulnerable to those who wish to use her—or bring her down….
It is 1886, and the St. Clairs are living out their dreams in three very separate parts of the world—Paris, Brazil and Colorado. And while each has found a measure of success and joy, each is haunted by past sins and secrets.
Once home in Colorado, the St. Clairs struggle to learn what it means to sing praise to God—even in the face of tremendous loss—and trust Him in all things, even when forced to fight for their very lives.

Sing, Book 2 in this series, took things up a notch! These three siblings each have their own share of trouble, growth and life to live. And it is a journey you don't want to miss out on! Bergren grabbed hold of my attention early on and held it, not only that but she grabbed a hold of my emotions as well. SING is about how we are all imperfect, all hungry and seeking something or someone to fill that hunger inside, and how we can either choose to fill that hunger with what is good for us or not. There are consequences to our mistakes but there is also grace if we will cry out for it.So for all of you who have ever messed up, who have ever wondered when will I get things right, can I be loved, forgiven... well this is a story for you. You can never fall too far to be reached, loved, redeemed, forgiven and embraced by the grace of God. This story has punch to it. Bergren has written real and deep characters, characters that feel very alive and who can and do, many times mess up. Moira and Nic certainly know how to run, fall, and sink down in the pit; but what you the reader want to see, and what pushes you on is the hope to see them get up and walk! I cannot wait to see what Bergren has in store for them (and for us) in Book 3!

Hi April, I do apologize for leaving this on your blog. I poked around for a more private way to contact you, but I couldn't locate one. Please forgive the impertinence. Perhaps if several others are interested, that might help as well? Anyway, I wanted to draw your attention to my novel, a story exploring the life of Jacob and Leah's daughter, written from a biblical/fully revealed Word of God perspective. It recently debuted on Amazon.com. and I'm wanting to gain some insight for perspective readers as I've none thus far! I came across several of your lovely reviews on Biblical Christian Fiction and now I read on your blog the boundaries you have for the books you read and am even more excited to have you give my book a "test" run if it's something which interests you. If not, would you feel comfortable refering someone(s) that may enjoy such a novel? Either way, thank you for leaving reviews that help unfold books of worth in a time when time is so precious. Most Sincerely, Alicha McHugh, author of "Daughter of the Promise" Numbered Among the Stars series
Thank you Alicha for leaving a comment and letting me know about your book! I notice that you do have an email contact, so be looking for a letter from me soon. I am very excited to read biblical fiction - yay!
