Wow - what an amazing picture of the unconditional and unending love of God. Some tough scenes in the life of a woman conditioned to offer sex without attaching any love to it. But a beautiful story. Couldn't put it down.

THIS BOOK...and AUTHOR is anointed.
I loved this 'modern day' story of Hosea...it was sooo drawing...redeeming...captivating! I was sooo loved on by our LORD -- the maker of the Universe -- and sooo thankful for my MARRIAGE...wow.
What a beautiful picture of who God truly is!

Redeeming Love
Francine Rivers


In this splendid retelling of the biblical story of Hosea, bestselling author Francine Rivers pens a heartbreaking romance between a prostitute and the upright and kind farmer who marries her; the story also functions as a reminder of God's unconditional love for his people. Redeeming Love opens with the Gold Rush of 1850 and its rough-and-tumble atmosphere of greed and desire.
