From the author of Revelation Special Ops comes a terrifying, hauntingly real and daringly hopeful tale of betrayal and love.
"Those eyes—like a tempestuous sea in paradise where the riptide, unexpected and thunderous, pulled you under—those blue eyes tugged me into her world. I saw behind them a reluctance to live her life like this. I wanted so badly to protect her from all of it.
I should have known better."
Leonard, a computer programmer, has a unique gift: by words alone he can calm violent situations. Which is helpful with all these kids running around the streets behaving like zombies. He has his own set of sorrows to face, but he's prepared for anything. Anything except Tamar, and the thunderous inkling that she will be his wife. This doesn't make any sense to Leonard. She stole his wallet. And his heart.
Painful circumstances ripped family and stability from Tamar's grasp, but with gutsy tenacity she faces life head on. Meeting the gorgeous and single Leonard changes everything. But surely a guy like him would never fall for a girl of the streets like her.
If you enjoyed the Revelation Special Ops series, you will be delighted by cameos of those characters in this book.

My Review:
Wow, such a beautiful and moving story! I found myself crying more than once as I read this story that brims with God's love for the characters and for us. It is rare that I find a book with romance, suspense, and reminders of how the Lord sees us--reminders of what He longs to accomplish in our lives. This is a story that did not leave me unchanged! I couldn't put this book down (unless I had to). Buy this book--it is a beautifully-crafted story!!
Thank you to the author for a copy of this book--the opinions and thoughts are my own.
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars
