My book review today is on the Love Inspired Suspense, No Safe Haven. This is Virginia's first LIS book but it is a great one. It's well written, action packed, and very hard to put down. Her characters are flawed by the choices they have made and the story deals with domestic violence and its effects on the people who have to deal with it. Unfortunately, statistics show that this problem is becoming worse every day. When I was a young married woman, I had to deal with it but I didn't know anyone else who had that problem. The police and my lawyer all told me that a man could do whatever he wanted to his wife, there wasn't anything they could do. I still have some trust issues but have come a long way. Thank God things have changed and women like Virginia are writing to bring these issues to the public. I have also written several books on this subject.
Jessica Taylor has survived an abusive relationship that caused the death of her beloved brother. The man is in prison but Jessica still lives in fear for her life. Jessica has turned her terror into a ministry to save other women from this life. As an advocate she has started a home, Dean's Den, to protect abused women. Sarah Young is one of these women. As Jessica helps her pack after her husband had been arrested, Sarah's brother comes to help her. As they get ready to take Sarah to the home, her husband returns and attacks them. As they pull away he threatens to destroy them all.
A.D.A. Andrew Jennings has tried to get his sister out of her bad marriage but Sarah refuses to take his help. As he answers a call for help from Sarah, he meets up with Jessica. Jessica has been a thorn in his side when it came to Domestic Violence cases, now she is able to help him understand why women allow them selves to be abused and what they go through. As Andrew tries to help Jessica and his sister, they are stalked, people are attacked, and he is called on the carpet for his job.
This is a journey to forgive ourselves of our past wrong choices and that God has a plan to restore us to the life He had planned for us all along. I know you will enjoy this book You can get a copy of the book at the address below. God bless you all.
