"A young woman longs to know true love after escaping from a hopeless situation at a house of ill repute in this heartwarming novel inspired by historical events--from the bestselling author of A Tapestry of Grace"-- - Random House, Inc.
A young woman sings of Godâs loveâeven if she doesnât believe He can forgive herâin this heartwarming novel inspired by historical events, from the bestselling author of A Tapestry of Grace.
âAn unforgettable story of Godâs grace and redemption.ââKathleen YâBarbo, author of The Black Midnight
Driven by survival to a life at a house of ill repute, Birdie Clarkson now longs only for escape. So when Reverend Isaiah Overly and his son, Ephraim, appear and offer a better life, she jumps at the chance. Ignoring the furious raging of the madam, Birdie climbs into the back of the preacherâs wagon.Â
Â
The men take her to Hope Hill, the haven the reverend and his wife, Ophelia, founded so women like Birdie can be taught skills to help them rise above their pasts. Soon a resistant Birdie finds herself singing in the choir Ephraim leads at revival meetings, even though sheâs certain sheâs the last person who should be representing God.Â
Â
Reverend Overly teaches that no one is irredeemable, but even as Ephraim is falling in love with her, Birdie remains convinced that sheâs past saving. After all sheâs been through, can she ever believe that Godâs redemption wipes every soul clean? And can Ephraim convince her that God loves her more than she can graspâand that he does, too?
