In one unexpected moment, dancer Vanessa Jordan lost her family, her career, and her future. She blames God for destroying everything that mattered. Kurt Wagner, an ex-con with a second chance at life and faith, aches to shed his past and see his dream of helping teens become reality. The former dancer and the ex-con form an unlikely alliance to build River House, a safe haven for kids on the street. But when Kurt's past threatens his dreams and his life, Vanessa becomes a target as well. It will take a stubborn love, the grace of God, and one courageous teen to keep the River House dream alive.
"This plot is one of the best that I've read. The characterization quality is maintained as in Volume 1, Shattered Image. Vanessa and Kurt are well fleshed out and real. Their emotions are convincing, and will make it easy for readers to relate to them. The ordeal that the protagonists have to deal with is one of the important elements reflected in their journey of self-discovery. The secondary characters are included with much care and thought to enhance the overall experience of becoming acquainted with the protagonists. Coupled with Monson's deft writing, the story flows well from start to finish."
