Amazing story

What an amazing story of Gods love. And what a beautiful thing to say,"to not replace the Bible with fiction. Thank you Francine for following God.

My first audible book and it was a winner!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

It is a BEAUTIFUL story that touches your heart in so many different ways.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Angel/Amanda/Sarah - Although not all of us have been prostitutes, we have all prostituted ourselves to something and I could relate with her defiance and stubborness. God truly allures us with His love.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I absolutely loved when Angel took on Duke and God saved her out of that situation. I was so excited!!

Any additional comments?

This is a truly amazing LOVE story of a man and a woman and God and I can't recommend it enough.

What a story

Wow. I never thought I would be recommending a Christian romance novel, but this one is gritty, humbling, and uplifting all in one. I could relate to the bitterness and pain throughout. Excellent illustration of one of the oddest books in the Bible (Hosea).
