Liora Blake’s Grand Valley series is set in the ranching and outdoor country of western Colorado. First Step Forward introduces the setting through a former NFL player trying to reinvent himself in a small town, and the books that follow continue to explore characters whose lives are tied to the valley.

The trilogy balances romance with a real sense of place. Blake clearly knows the landscape she is writing about, and the outdoor scenes feel authentic rather than decorative. Each book pairs a new couple, but the Grand Valley itself is the constant, giving the series a cohesive feel even as the focus shifts between stories.
