I can certainly see why this book has a lot of controversy, but I really enjoyed it and found it to be quite a moving story. Angel grew so much throughout the book and it was just good to see.

I was nervous about starting this because I really disliked the last book I read by the author (The Atonement Child). I am glad to say that I worried for nothing.
This book hooked me right from the beginning. The characters were so well-developed. It was really nice to see that the book spanned so many years. Eventually, it switched from Marta's POV to Hildemara's and then back to Marta's. Even by the end of the book, there is still a lot that those two have to work through so I would recommend keeping book two since there is a cliffhanger.

5 Stars

Content: As with all of Francine's books, I'd say 18 .

I didn’t enjoy this as much as the author’s other books. This one was so heavy-handed with the preaching. Something about how the characters were portrayed was really off-putting.

I will admit that I didn't think this could live up to Redeeming Love. I am glad to say that I was mistaken.
