PUBLISHER DESCRIPTION:  
  
CALIFORNIA'S GOLD COUNTRY, 1850. A TIME WHEN MEN SOLD THEIR SOULS FOR A BAG OF GOLD AND WOMEN SOLD THEIR BODIES FOR A PLACE TO SLEEP.  
  
Angel expects nothing from men but betrayal. A child prostitute, she survives by keeping her hatred alive. And what she hates most are the men who use her, leaving her empty and dead inside.  
  
Then she meets Michael Hosea, who seeks his Father's heart in everything. Michael obeys God's call to marry Angel and to love her unconditionally. Slowly, he defies Angel's every bitter expectation until, despite her resistance, her frozen heart begins to thaw. But with her unexpected softening come overwhelming feelings of unworthiness and fear. And so Angel runs . . .  
  
A powerful retelling of the story of Gomer and Hosea, Redeeming Love is about love that won't let go - no matter what.
