From the back cover:

The moment her sister’s body was discovered near Ian Carpenter’s New Orleans mission, crusading jornalist Gretchen Barker was torn between devastating grief and a desire for revenge. She mourned her sister’s drug problems and the family trouble that had started them, but the minister’s professions of help made her suspicious.

Except the more she got to know Ian, the more she recognized his courage in the face of adversity and his commitment to faith…and Gretchen’s sharp edges began to soften. Until a mysterious phone call left her questioning whether or not he truly had something to hide.

This book rocked!! Seriously! I can honestly say that it’s one of the best Love Inspired novels I’ve ever read! It’s an emotionally-gripping tale from beginning to end! You won’t want to put this one down.

Ian is a sexy, cute, saxophone-playing preacher that you’ll just fall in love with! He is called to help others, however, as you turn the pages, you’ll find that he is a very unique servant of God.

Gretchen, a reporter, is suspicious of the charming, charismatic preacher. Initially, she wonders if he’s responsible for her young sibling’s death. As she falls in love with Ian, secrets about his past are uncovered…a past that he’s partially forgotten. This unique twist in the story will bring tears to your eyes as you read a tale of forgiveness and reconciliation.

This story really touched me, and I’m personally recommending that you read this book! I can almost guarantee you’ll love it, especially if you love good, heart-warming, emotional, and inspirational romance!
