Summary: A must read!
Comment: Judith Pella has crafted a master piece with this spectacular novel! Elise, thrown from a life of comfort and wealth to the lowly position of a slave when a condeming secret is revealed this young woman is forced to sell her self to save the life of her child. Benjamin Sinclair, a self-righteous and condeming preacher who feels called to ministry in Texas immediately deems her lower than the low. Watch as God works and preforms miracles in each of these peoples' hearts to bring them to a point of submission before Him so that His perfect plan can be manifested in their lives.

Summary: Eagerly awaiting the sequel!
Comment: Judith Pella is quite a writer! This isn't the first time she's used characters that a reader would consider "lowest of the low" (in this one it's a slave forced into prostitution, and an oh-so-egotistical preacher I just wanted to slap), managing to change them almost entirely by the story's end. These "total turnarounds" her characters experience could come off as very contrived if done by a writer with less skill, but I've never found myself frustrated with Pella for trying to manipulate me--she does it so well that I'm into the story and forget it's "just some words on paper." Her latest is characteristically vivid, and I really enjoyed it--although I must put a "caution" and say that while Pella never stoops to the dirtiness of secular romance, she does go beyond the Janette Oke level. The worlds in her books are *not* all "peaches 'n' cream." Still, quite a good saga that had only a few drawn-out moments (I got a bit tired of the wavering emotions of both Benjamin and Elise in regard to each other). I will definitely read the sequel!

Summary: Teaxas Angel?
Comment: No offense, but are all the reviewers of this book blind? This was a BORING book. I could barely get through the first half of the book, it picked up a little bit after that, but not much. One of the main characters, Elise, seemed stupid to me. Trying to escape with a screaming child? Excuse me, but it seems like common sense to shut the child up and then run. I was surprised that the author, Judith Pella, was a bestselling athor. Because this is definitly not one of my favorites. Then I thought maybe this was one of her not so great books, I mean all authors have those. But after reading all of these reviews, I'm not quite sure. The author ended the book too quickly. It was as if she was just trying to tie all the loose ends up, instead of actully thinking it through. Overall, I would NOT recommend thiS book. Don't waste your time on it.
