People will always come into each other's lives when God knows they need a friend.

Born and raised as a cattle rancher in the Nebraska Sandhills, Riley Champion never imagined his love for music would turn into his next career. After his debut country Christian album took the nation by storm, his newfound fame has landed him his first solo tour. Riley, however, was raised as a humble gentleman and even the career of his dreams and his new adoring fans do not keep him from visiting his family at the Champion Angus Ranch. Even as he enjoys the peaceful countryside and the time with his family, he prays that someone could come along who likes him for who he is rather than who he has become.

Foreign language schoolteacher Kate Aldrich is not terribly pleased to have volunteered to help her father sponsor a group of college students during her spring break, but her feelings change when they visit a cattle farm where a rancher named Riley catches Kate's eye... just as she has caught his. At first, she is unsure of how to handle his chivalric manner after a past event impacted her godly identity, but after speaking with him and learning he is a rising star, she wishes to learn more about the God-loving man who she is able to talk to about anything.

Through tour events, unavoidable drama, self-doubts, and inner healing, Riley and Kate's friendship steadily grows as they realize they needed each other's support more than they knew.

A story about feeling inspired, supporting loved ones, and overcoming the fears and hurts of the past, present, and future, author L.D. Kimberly makes her debut with Song of a Champion, the first in her Champion series.
