Excellent book
I have loved all the books by this author.
A great read though much is written from the teen characters view which was all over the place. It drove me crazy for a while but the story was worth sticking it out for. Scary that this is our world nowadays.
Wow, this really opened my eyes to the thinking of young girls (even though I was one once!) Very inspirational, there’s always hope for reconciliation with our Lord.
I found absolutely nothing to like about this book. I would not recommend it at all.
Wow. Had a hard time getting into the story, but you don’t think of human trafficking much, until you come across a story like this. Also the back story of the how he picked and played her. It is heartbreaking. You hope that guy’s like him get caught and sentences that never allow them prey on the innocent ever again
can’t get into it. went to chapter 12 and gave up
Very timely topic. Heart breaking window into reality.
A beautiful redemption story!
I just finished reading this story, and friends—if you are interested in redemption stories at all, read this book!
I remember one or maybe two stories that I’ve read about child trafficking. All were from Christian perspectives, and they were good, but this one blows them out of the water for me.
Terry does an excellent job getting into her character’s heads. If I counted right, there are four different points of view, but I was never confused as to who was talking. I loved watching the characters grow, hated the bad guy, and almost felt like praying along with several of the characters as they struggled to make the right decisions.
I think my most favorite part of this book was the fact that while it deals with human trafficking, I never once felt like I was shown or forced to hear details I don’t want to know. Several times, characters were talking about the things they had to talk about, and you got enough of the general gist of the conversation to know where they were going, but it was never, ever printed out. Even the character that was forced into prostitution only thinks about what she had to do in terms of going on multiple dates. I so appreciated that!
This book sheds light on a subject that often isn’t written about, but that I think we’d all agree is a big problem today. And it brings hope to situations that are often—unfortunately—hopeless. It gave me a heart to pray for the end of this modern slave trade even more. And inspired me, too, because God’s grace is so much greater than we often stop to remember! He is good. I loved that this story reminded me of that.
If you read any Christian Fiction this year, definitely read this one. Yes, it’s a thriller, but don’t let that scare you off. It’s one of the best books I’ve read this year, and quite likely my favorite from Terry so far, aside from The Beloved Daughter The Beloved Daughter!
I requested a free review copy of this book, and this is my honest opinion of it.
Compelling and heartbreaking story involving topics that should be discussed with every teen and parent. From trust issues to family relationships to the horrors of trafficking, this is a story that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Powerful. I received a complimentary copy of the book. No review was required.
Wow! This story deals with the topic of child grooming and prostitution following Alana’s perfect way of discussing a hot button topic but always with a clear Christian message! I like the way this story follows the detective & his wife in their marriage issues, Margot telling from the mother’s point of view and of course from Becky’s life as she goes through the victim’s day to day experiences. This is action-packed while always keeping you ready for an unexpected twist! I honestly could not stop reading at any point! Every time I thought things were calming down something shocking would happen. For anyone who loves to read a book with heart-stopping action & constant twist and turns, you need won’t want to miss this! Every time I thought I knew what was coming next I was totally surprised with what happened! I absolutely love the way Alana molds stories like this, while keeping the continual all encompassing action yet through it all intertwining with such a deep faith in God.
