I left this book on the TBR pile for almost a year, sure I'd dislike it. To my suprise, I loved it. This is the Story of Gabe and Rachel, in the beginning he's gruff and not lovable, and she is smart mouthed and fearless. Edward, Rachel's 5 year old son is also a huge part of this book. In the beginning I was sure there was no way this would turn into a love story, but it turned into one of the best. Susan Elizabeth Phillips has such a way with her characters, you actually feel you know them. And feel them grow throughout the book. There are many heart wrenching scene's that are beautifully written. With just as many hot, hot love scenes. By mid-book, you are cheering YES and crying NO at the same time till the end, there is so much push and pull. This is certianly worth reading.

I couldn't put this book down, and I say that of very few books. It is a story about redemption, about overcoming some very long odds, about proving the world wrong, and about the power of love to bring people back from the brink of despair. Rachel Stone is the disgraced widow of a corrupt televangelist trying to protect and provide for her 5 year old son, Edward. She has come back to the site of her disgrace, Salvation, North Carolina, where she is nearly universally despised, to try to find a chest she thinks holds the key to some money her despicable husband left behind. In the process, she not only rescues herself and her son, but the hero Gabe, who is brought back from the brink of fatal despair. The story is original, the dialogue is snappy, and despite what sounds like a very depressing story line, it is fundamentally upbeat. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would.

Dealing with faith, love, and loss, this book is a little bit deeper than some of SEP's other work. This one required a box of tissues for me.
