Molly Noble BullMeet Molly Noble Bull --

An only child,  I was born of Scottish, Irish, English and French descent in Kingsville, Texas -- home of the famous King Ranch. Kingsville is near the Gulf coast in the cattle ranching country of South Texas. The Noble, of Molly Noble Bull, is my maiden name.

My husband, Charlie Bull, and I married when I was 21, and for a time we lived in Germany while he was in the army. We have three sons, Bret, Burt, and Bren, and all three are part-time cowboys.

Of course, I'm a born again Christian. I was raised in a liberal, mainline church, but after being saved at the age of 33, I joined a Southern Baptist Church.  I think like an early American. This also includes my values which are conservative and pro-life.

Charlie and I lived in a rock home at the top of a hill in the beautiful Texas Hill Country west of San Antonio for about 20 years before moving to Kingsville.

Writing: As a child I loved to play with dolls and paper dolls, and "Let's Pretend" was favorite childhood game.  Pretending meant creating long dialogues and complicated plots, and I never tired of doing it.  I think novel writing is what let's pretenders do after they grow up.  I was already a born again Christian before I started selling my work, and it is not surprising that I write for the Christian market only.

Interests: Besides writing, I enjoy genealogy, travel, conservative causes, and Bible prophecy.

Influences: My father and my maternal grandfather were ranch managers -- in other words they were real, Texas cowboys! They rode, roped, and branded horses and cattle. For a time during my growing up years I lived on the Santa Rosa Ranch, a sixty thousand acre Texas cattle ranch. All three of our sons are involved in ranching in Texas today. The Rogue's Daughter, my Zondervan historical, is set on a Texas cattle ranch in 1890.

The Winter PearlThe Winter Pearl

In 1888, Colorado was a dangerous place for a girl on the run. But Honor McCall had to take her chances to escape from her cruel, drunken uncle and start a new life. She never imagined that she'd be rescued by a handsome young minister, or find a place to call home in his church.

It was more than she deserved, more than she could ever repay. So how could she stay on -- accepting charity while living a lie, hiding the truth about the danger that stalked her, hiding the love in her heart for a man who might never return her feelings?

She had to leave, the sooner the better, but she just couldn't seem to go -- and then Christmas brought a special miracle...

For AlwaysFor Always

After the death of her first husband in an accident, Merrily is united in marriage to Garth. With two children who resent their mother remarrying, Merrily must help them adjust to a new family while she herself must come to grips with the death of her first husband and accept her new relationship.

For Always was the first novel Molly ever sold, and it is set in Germany in a town much like the one Molly and Charlie lived in when Charlie served in the army with United States Forces, Germany.

 

 

The Rogue's DaughterThe Rogue's Daughter

Only a few short months after graduation, Rebecca Roberts found herself with both the teaching job she desperately needed and something else she had been determined never to have - a husband. Seth Matthews, a rugged, independent widower, had hired Rebecca to teach his three young children, then married her, "to save her reputation." It was a legal arrangement only, no love involved. Or was there?

The azure skies, sun-baked earth, and majestic live oaks of Seth's South Texas ranch afford the setting for the most important lessons of this story: Rebecca learns about trust and tenderness, and Seth learns about the God she loves.
