    Francine Rivers

    New York Times bestselling author Francine Rivers is one of the leading authors of women's Christian fiction. With nearly thirty published novels with Christian themes to her credit, she continues to win both industry acclaim and reader loyalty around the globe. Her numerous bestsellers, including Redeeming Love, have been translated into more than thirty different languages.  Shortly after becoming a born-again Christian in 1986, Francine wrote Redeeming Love as her statement of faith. This retelling of the biblical story of Gomer and Hosea set during the time of the California Gold Rush is now considered by many to be a classic work of Christian fiction. Redeeming Love continues to be one of the Christian Booksellers Association’s top-selling titles, and it has held a spot on the Christian bestsellers list for nearly a decade. In 2015, she received the Lifetime Achievement Award from American Christian Fiction Writers. She is a member of Romance Writers of America's coveted Hall of Fame as well as a recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award from American Christian Fiction Writers (ACFW).

      This review should really be a 3 but I don’t want to discourage anyone from reading it. The narrator is a terrible fit. I don’t know who thought, “you know what this Christian romance series is missing?! That deep/dangerous voice guy who intros action adventure trailers!” He’s a fine narrator, just a ridiculous pick for this.

      The story: it’s alternately good, convicting, deeply encouraging but also redundant, long winded, predictable and cheesy. It occasionally contradicts the previous book to adjust to the narrative of the next book. Some chapters I would describe as beautiful. Some repetitive and unnecessary.

      This story encouraged my faith as an adult teen during a dark and painful time- Hadassah was a model to me, showing me how to withstand suffering, isolation, and persecution. I read it now over 15 years later and I love her still but I’d like give the book a good cleansing edit ??

      Fantastic! A great continuation of the story. Felt like I was transported back in time. Looking forward to the next book
    • 5/5
      I cried so much on this part of a closing chapter of the series. It was so good and the message of the power of forgiveness and sin is so powerful.
    • 5/5
      I've read this multiple times over a decade and love it each time. The trilogy always points me to the goodness of God.

      What an amazing, beautiful and emotional book. Mrs Rivera has a gift to weave heart wrenching stories. I recommend to everyone . I pray God continues to bless her and her fans.

    • 5/5
      I loved this book so much. Once again the author masterfully wove a complex and deeply moving story. The path it took was unexpected in its many twists. Of all the books ive every read i think this is now in my top 3.
