“Having read her first book, I definitely wanted to read this one! Although not in the genre as her first, Gwen Chermack writes with the same engaging style. Both books look at the different perspectives of the characters involved. The story switches back and forth between the two main characters, giving the same story from their points of view.

I have often wondered what it would be like to sink so low that there doesn’t seem to be much restoration possible. Believing that God has forsaken her, Liz runs away from her hurt and ends up living on the streets. In a case of mistaken identity, Liz finds herself being helped by two Christian men. Working her way back into society and finding herself working in the last place she thought she would find herself – a church – Liz begans to find God’s love. This story is a love story – not of just a man and a woman, but of finding oneself in love with the Creator and recognizing His unwavering love.”  ~Amazon reader History Teacher

“This is a beautiful story about people from a church where members are told to make a difference by helping others. Liz, the main character who is a recipient of that help, is also someone special. We have all been where she was- lost. All she needed was a little bit of help to restore herself. This inspirational story did more than just make me feel good. It also inspired me to pick up my guitar more often. The first music scene really moved me. I was also impressed how the church members wasn’t very judgmental towards Liz for her refusal to pray. Being Christian is about helping and loving all no matter what their religion is. Great job Gwen Chermack on writing this great story!”  ~Amazon reader A. Andrews

“This book is a must read! If you have ever been in a place where you are lost and without hope, you need to read this book. There were many times I was just swept away. Gwen writes in such a way that you are just so caught up with the characters, you have to remind yourself that it is a book.”  ~Amazon reader

“It is a beautifully written story that allows you to see into the lives of the homeless. Too often we step past them and choose not to see them, but they are hurting people who just need someone to love them. This story shows that it is never too late for people and that God always offers redemption and restoration.”  ~Amazon reader Cyndi L. Smith
