Resumen del Editor

The inspiring, dramatic, and heartwarming true account of an escaped convict and his wife of thirty-five plus years who never knew his secret, which captured the imaginations of millions on Humans of New York.

Bobby and Cheryl Love were living in Brooklyn, happily married for decades, when the FBI and NYPD appeared at their door and demanded to know from Bobby, in front of his shocked wife and children: “What is your name? No, what’s your real name?”

Bobby’s thirty-eight-year secret was out. As a Black child in the Jim Crow South, Bobby found himself in legal trouble before his 14th birthday. Sparked by the desperation he felt in the face of limited options and the pull of the streets, Bobby became a master thief. He soon found himself facing a thirty-year prison sentence. But Bobby was smarter than his jailers. He escaped, fled to New York, changed his name, and started a new life as “Bobby Love.” During that time, he worked multiple jobs to support his wife and their growing family, coached Little League, attended church, took his kids to Disneyland, and led an otherwise normal life. Then it all came crashing down.

With the drama of a jailbreak story and the incredible tension of a life lived in hiding, The Redemption of Bobby Love is an unbelievable but true account of building a life from scratch, the pain of festering secrets in marriage, and the unbreakable bonds of faith and love that keep a family together.

Great story

This story covers so much and I enjoy listening to it all unfold. Thank Mr and Mrs Love for sharing this wonderful story based on your life. Keep trusting and believing.......keep the faith.

Second Chances, people can change !!

I loved this love story and Bobby Love's second chance at life. Very intriguing from beginning to the end.

Fact or fiction? A good story.

Well written, and a great story. I felt like I was living in the projects with the family and I couldn’t stop listening. I feel for the poor innocent victims of Walter violent crimes.
That said, I’m glad I got experienced this wonderful story from Cheryl and Walter.

What a Story

I loved this book. What a story. I wish the book was longer. But, overall it was well done. I wish the Love family nothing but the best.

Excellent story with wonderful narration that listens like a movie!

This was a beautiful and moving story. It was so well narrated. It felt like I was sitting there listening to this beautiful couple (and family) going back and forth, telling their story. The book was filled with great story telling. There were times where I couldn’t wait to hear what happened next and I definitely couldn’t wait to hear the end. I loved the sense I got that this family really loved each other, supported each other and lifted each other up (and others). Their faith and the miraculous way God worked in their lives was touching and lovely to get to listen to. Loved this book!

Thoroughly enjoyed it! Captivating & inspiring. One must always hold on to our Faith in God.

A must read for all families. Perseverance is our virtue to keep our faith in prayer and family. Many lessons to be learned while reading.

Great book!

Loved it!!! This book is a page turner the audible way!!! Could not stop listening!!

Real life

The story pulled me in, I love a good love story. I love a great romance mystery.

Fascinating

I personally know this story, When I was first told about this as a family member, I could not believe it. This definitely sounded like a movie. I am grateful that both Cheryl and Bobby have healed from this traumatic experience with God’s help, and continue to love and support each other and their family.
