I truly enjoyed this romance by Warren. I am a huge fan of a good romance novel. I am a sucker for happy endings. Yet, I know that real life relationships are messy and not as simple to figure out as a book. Maybe that is why I am so drawn to them.
I liked the book because is was set in Minnesota and I could easily envision where she was – it sucked me in right away. This book was not as easy to figure out as one would think. It starts out with a shooting. Not always a good way to start. Warren then uses the characters to show how love can heal all kinds of hurt and pain, both internal and external. The female character is the one that gets shot and immediately decides to do all that she can to get away from the inner city gang culture that caused her injury. Of course, the man she falls in love with has a passion to serve in the city and get the gang kids out of gangs in into God’s family.
The story revolves around the reconciliation of these two lives and how God can use even our worst experiences for His kingdom. This is not the best book ever, but I did enjoy it.
